Goal 7: Shaping policy at national and international level The Federal Government will intensify its efforts to actively shape policy with regard to existing and new forms of cooperation for protecting information infrastructures. In addition, it will strengthen national and international cooperation in order to bring German security interests to bear when formulating guidelines, directives and other legal instruments. To be able to respond comprehensively to threats, given the global character of networks, the federal ministries and other federal authorities will increase their cooperation with their counterparts abroad. Together with its partners, for example in the EU (especially ENISA), NATO, OECD, UN, G8 and at international level in general, the Federal Government will raise the awareness of the vulnerability of information infrastructures and support the provision of technical solutions.
