Prime Minister’s Office | National Cyber Directorate General Israel's cyber security strategy is based on a generic concept of operations for national cyber security – a conceptual framework for all of the state's efforts and functions in the context of national cyber security. This framework includes both direct State actions to confront cyber threats and indirect efforts aimed at encouraging and supporting security activities in the private sector and collaborating with it. The concept of operations defines three operational layers: Aggregate Cyber Robustness, Systemic Cyber Resilience and National Cyber Defense. The three-layer approach derives from the unique nature of the cyber threat and the central role of private organizations in achieving national cyber security. The three layers differ from one another in their goals, in the role of the State and in the relations between the State and private organizations.
