Graph 2: Number of Resolved Incidents During 2022
A key trend of the past two years is that the number of severe cyber incidents registered by
the NÚKIB has been declining. On the other hand, the number of significant cyber incidents
increased, while the number of minor cyber incidents decreased slightly (see Graph 3). As in
2021, the public sector was by far the most affected by cyber incidents. The health sector and
the private sector followed at a greater distance. This year, however, the NÚKIB has recorded
an increase in incidents in transportation. Previous years saw only single digit values in this
sector, while in 2022 there were 14 incidents.

Graph 3: Summary of Resolved Incidents in 2022 Based on Significance
In the year 2023, Czech cyberspace will probably (55-70 %) continue to be influenced to some
extent by the developments in Ukraine. Although the war affected Czech cyberspace in 2022
(see below), it did not lead to a significant increase in severe cyberattacks against Czech entities.
These attacks were mainly aimed at Ukraine itself or its geographically closest allies. However, it
cannot be ruled out (25-50%) that such attacks may also occur in Czech cyberspace in the coming
year.
Unregulated entities
Regulated entities
72 incidents
74 incidents
The trend of the growing number of incidents involving unregulated entities also continued
during the previous year. In 2022, the NÚKIB registered 74 of such attacks compared to 64 in
2021. Regulated entities, on the other hand, saw a year-on-year decrease in the number of
cyber incidents.
