About Us
Cyber Defence
With our increasing dependency on information and communication technologies, we are exposed to growing and diverse risks derived from the use of such technologies. Malicious activities originating from both, state and non-state actors, aimed at, and carried out via these technologies, have become an integral part of the Cyberspace. This fact has been noted by NATO, which has recognized the Cyberspace to be a part of collective defence, as well as a new domain of operations, placing it alongside to the domain of land, air, sea, and space. In accordance with the national strategic documents and policies, as well as NATO and EU initiatives, the issue of safe and secure Cyberspace has become one of the top priorities for the Slovak Republic. The Cyberspace is characterized by its interconnectivity, lack of borders, and diminished distances among existing threats and potential victims. Conventional approach to protection of isolated information and communication systems proved to be insufficient and there is a need for a comprehensive protection and defence of the Cyberspace at national and international level.
Key national strategies and policies covering the issue of protection and defence of Slovak Cyberspace are:
- Cyber Security Concept of the Slovak Republic for years 2015-2020
- Action Plan of Implementation of Cyber Security Concept of the Slovak Republic for years 2015-2020
- White Paper on Defence of the Slovak Republic (16 MB)
