National Cybersecurity Strategy National governance In light of the Implementation plan defined above, it is clear how the success of the national strategy can be guaranteed only through the synergic action of institutions, industry, university and civil society, whose contribution, with single actions in the respective fields, is essential for the achievement of the general goals. As such, an integral part of the strategic choice is the creation of a national cybersecurity ecosystem, in which the various interested subjects may operate in a coordinated way to allow the country as a whole to make the best use of the various opportunities offered by the technological innovation processes, contributing, in such way, to Italy’s prosperity and socio-economic development. This choice is at the basis of the recent reform of the national cyber architecture – enacted by Law Decree of 14 June 2021, n. 82 – by which the legislator has aimed at reorganising and rationalising the national competences regarding cybersecurity (previously fragmented and attributed to a variety of institutional actors), creating a central entity with competence on the subject, which could also represent the connecting point between the various interested subjects. This also to allow the implementation of the strategic goals in a coordinated and harmonized system, in which the implementation of the directives defined by the political authority can be guaranteed through the coordinated action of the involved actors. 24
