field of cyber security.
to organise joint promotional campaigns on the
protection of children in cyberspace and the safe
use of the Internet.
5. Defining the role of the Ministry
of Defence and the Armed Forces of
Montenegro in cyberspace
Bearing in mind that CIRT recognised malware
as one of the biggest threats in Montenegrin cyberspace, a pilot project was launched on 4 November 2016, in cooperation with the Agency for
Electronic Communications and Postal Services
(EKIP) and Internet providers in Montenegro.
The Ministry of Defence (MoD) and the Armed
Forces of Montenegro (AFoM) are fully responsible for the cyberspace created within MoD and
AFoM and they cooperate with the national CIRT
in Montenegro’s cyberspace protection.
NATO targets (E 6202 N) have been adopted,
defining the capacities that MoD and AFoM should develop in the next 2 to 5 year period.
Degree of implementation:
MoD and AFoM have a clear vision of their role
in cyberspace. The role of MoD and AFoM will
be further strengthened through the additional
activities planned for the upcoming period.
6. Partnership of public and private
sectors
A large part of critical information infrastructure belongs to the private sector. Therefore it is
necessary to clearly define cooperation with the
private sector in the field of cyber security.
With regard to the private sector, seven CIRTs
were created within the companies Crnogorski
Telekom, Telenor, M:tel, Wireless Montenegro,
Telemach, M-kabl and Societe Generale Montenegro Bank.
One of the best examples of cooperation with
the private sector is the activities undertaken
9
The project was aimed at identifying infected
computers as well as undertaking activities in
order to recover from the consequences. The
above was done in cooperation with EKIP and
the Internet providers operating in Montenegro.
In November 2016, joint meetings were held on
this topic, and the test stage of the project was
carried out.
Degree of implementation:
Evident progress has been made in terms of
strengthening cooperation with the private sector. Bearing in mind the significance of having
a partnership of public and private sectors, it has
been recognised as a priority by the Cyber Security Strategy for Montenegro 2018-2021.
7. Raising public awareness and online
protection

various promotional campaigns with a special
focus on the protection of children on the Internet9. Additionally, in 2017, the Ministry of Public
