SOG-IS Transposition

Back to all publications

Publication date:November 19, 2019

the overall scope of this study was to explore and provide an analysis of any likely impediments introduced by the Cybersecurity Act proposal [CSA_P] on a possible transposition of the existing SOG-IS MRA while identifying open challenges that should be further discussed and addressed by involved stakeholders during the transposition process. Taking into consideration the fact that the SOG-IS MRA has been developed before the Cybersecurity Act proposal, the agreement was considered to be a promising candidate for an implementation of a cybersecurity scheme. Lastly, following a consultation process with interested SOG-IS MRA participants, a number of considerations were brought up with regard to possible issues and challenges. This study was concluded in Q1 2019. At that time, the Cybersecurity Act (Regulation (EU) 2019/881) was still on a proposal phase.
