coordinated and concentrated use of government and sectoral resources.
b)
Cooperation. Improved cooperation and efficient information sharing are
needed to meet our objectives and cybersecurity interests. To this end, it is
necessary to create operational cooperation fora ensuring the participation of
representatives of business sector and academia in preparing governmental
decision making, enabling the members of these fora to put forward
recommendations or opinions on the development and continuous improvement of
cybersecurity activities.
c) Specialised institutions. Cybersecurity tasks should be assigned to organisations
with specific skills and powers, cooperating not only with each other but also with
other authorities responsible for data protection and classified information
protection. These tasks affect organisations responsible for national security,
defence, law enforcement, disaster management and critical infrastructure
protection, as well as authorities responsible for electronic information security.
Cybersecurity incidents are handled by the Government Incident Response Centre
as an accredited member of the European Governmental CERT Group, as well as
the Sectoral Incident Response Centres in various sectors.
d) Regulation. In addition to a complex legislation, it is necessary to conclude
cooperation agreements with actors of civil society, business sector and academia
to provide an adequate basis and regulation for the efficient operation of
cybersecurity based on shared responsibility.
a) International cooperation projects. Hungary wishes to enhance its role in
cyberdefence initiatives and cooperation projects within the EU and the NATO, as
well as in the cybersecurity cooperation projects of the UN and the OSCE. It
strives to carry on and expand cooperation regarding cyberdefence exercise and
planning within the EU and the NATO, and maintain its leading role in developing
and running operational government cooperations, as well as in the Central and
Eastern European region. Hungary lays special emphasis on implementing
activities that are, on the one hand specified by the Digital Agenda of the European
Union for the Member States and, on the other hand, prescribed by the NATO
Cyber Security Policy and its implementation plan for allies. Hungary deems the
North Atlantic cooperation very important in respect of cyber security. Hungary
continues to play an active role in the European, Atlantic and global organisations
of national/governmental and Sectoral Incident Handling Centres, in the European
Network and Information Security Agency, and in the Board of European
Electronic Communications Authorities.
e) Awareness. Hungary maintains its leadership in organising Hungarian and
international cybersecurity forums. Through its specialised institutions and via
cooperation with actors of civil society, business sector and academia, it supports
activities for the secure use of cyberspace and raising awareness, as well as
initiatives promoting practical cybersecurity skills, with special focus on
awareness-raising among individual users and small and medium-sized enterprises.
f) Education, research & development. Hungary pays particular attention to
integrating cyber security as a field in the information technology syllabus of
primary, secondary and higher education, in training courses for government
officials and in professional training courses. Hungary strives for strategic
cooperation with university and scientific research centres which have achieved
outstanding and internationally recognised results in cybersecurity research and
development and help to establish cybersecurity centres of excellence.
b)
Child protection. Hungary regards the creation and maintenance of an
environment allowing the healthy development of children as a basic element of
