Cyber Security Strategy 2021-2024
Ministry of Defence of Georgia
Current situation
The urgency of creating the document is due to the development of information and
communication technologies and the growing dynamics of cyber-attacks. As a result of the
ongoing institutional changes in the MoD, activities are being automated, digitized and
unified. Centralized management systems are being introduced. This process ensures the
development of effective management and communication models, but on the other hand,
significantly increases the likelihood of cyber-attacks and the risks of information system
compromise.
Based on the understanding of the situational analysis in the Ministry and the best practices in
the field of cyber/information security (ISO, NIST, CIS, etc.), the need for changes and
improvement of existing approaches has been identified, which should ensure the
development of effective and efficient models of process planning, management and
monitoring.
Improperly protected cyberspace poses significant challenges and serious risks to the defence
system. Unauthorized access to information systems by cyber-attackers can cause leakage of
confidential information and various types of intelligence-sabotage actions can be carried out,
which ultimately aim to reduce Georgia's defence capabilities and represent the country as an
inappropriate partner to the international community.
What do we want to achieve by 2024? - People, Process, Technology
People conduct different activities with its own intellectual resources. processes make these
activities more efficient and technology allows processes to be automated and optimized. In
the context of this provision, the transformation from a narrow technical direction of cyber
security to a strategic level system, requires a complex approach. The document discusses
cyber security and the accompanying strategic goals in the context of the above interrelated
directions. The goals and action plan activities formulated within the framework of the cyber
security strategy, serve to increase cyber capabilities in the three areas mentioned.
