Building upon the work of the EDA Cyber Defence Project Team to develop cyber defence
capabilities, the EEAS/EDA and Member States will:
• Use the Capability Development Plan and other instruments that facilitate and support
cooperation between Member States in order to improve the degree of convergence in the
planning of cyber defence requirements of the Member States at the strategic level, notably
on monitoring, situational awareness, prevention, detection and protection, information
sharing, forensics and malware analysis capability, lessons learned, damage containment,
dynamic recovery capabilities, distributed data storage and data back-ups;
• Support current and future cyber defence related Pooling and Sharing projects for military
operations (e.g. in forensics, interoperability development, standard setting);
• Develop a standard set of objectives and requirements defining the minimum level of
cybersecurity and trust to be achieved by Member States, drawing on existing EU-wide
experience;
• Facilitate exchanges between Member States on national cyber defence doctrines, training
programmes and exercises as well as on cyber defence oriented recruitment, retention and
reservists programs;
• Improve cooperation between military CERTs of the Member States on a voluntary basis,
to improve the prevention and handling of incidents;
• Consider developing cyber defence training in view of EU Battlegroup certification.
• To the extent that the improvement of cyber defence capabilities depends upon civilian
network and information security expertise, Member States may request assistance from
ENISA.
