The Policy is at the same time a guide to actions for all other users of cyberspace
who are not mentioned above.
1.5. Establishing responsibility for the security of CRP
Due to the international nature of the Policy the entity coordinating the
implementation of the Policy, on behalf of the Council of Ministers, is the minister
responsible for informatization who, with the help of the Team referred to in point
3.4.1, ensures coordination and consistency of actions undertaken to ensure the
security of CRP.
In the implementation of tasks relating to the security of CRP the Governmental
Computer Security Incident Response Team CERT.GOV.PL is acting as the primary
CERT in the area of government administration and the civil area. The main task is to
provide and develop the capacity of organizational units of public administration of
the Republic of Poland to protect against cyber threats, with particular emphasis on
attacks targeted at infrastructure including ICT systems and networks, destruction or
disruption of which could pose a threat to human life, health, national heritage and
the environment to a significant extent, or cause serious property damage and disrupt
the functioning of the state.
Similarly, in the military this role is performed by “Departmental Centre for
Security Management of ICT Networks and Services.”
For the success of the Policy, an active participation of users of CRP in the efforts
aimed at improving the level of its security is essential.
It is also important to increase the participation of users of CRP in the implementation
of the Policy by consulting its content and participation in the coordination of the
implementation of the Policy and its reviews with the representatives of society and
ICT community.
The general use of solutions aimed at improving the security by the users of CRP
will be an expression of approval for the actions undertaken by the Government of the
Republic of Poland in this area.
1.6. Compliance of the Policy with legal acts
The Policy is in compliance with the generally applicable laws of the Republic of
Poland (the Constitution, acts, ratified international agreements and regulations) and
without prejudice to any of them.
