Skr. 2016/17:213 On the political level, the EU Member States adopted in June 2016 Council conclusions on improving criminal justice cooperation in cyberspace. The three different sections of the conclusions treat the development of voluntary cooperation with service providers, the streamlining of mutual legal assistance and the issue of enforcement jurisdiction (authorities’ right to independently secure evidence) in cyberspace in situations where existing frameworks are not sufficient. Furthermore, in September 2016, an evaluation was made of Sweden’s capability to combat cybercrime as part of the EU’s mechanism for mutual evaluations. A report containing recommendations will be treated in spring 2017, and 18 months after the adoption of the report Sweden is to report on the measures taken to rectify identified deficiencies. As many of the problems faced by the Swedish law enforcement authorities are also found in other countries, the Government believes that there is an explicit need for continuing to develop the international cooperation in this area, particularly within the EU. The Government will work to       2.5 adapt the legislation to allow it to counteract cybercrime effectively, provide the law enforcement authorities conditions, with reference to the protection of personal privacy and legal certainty, to maintain their capability to obtain information, ensure that the law enforcement authorities guarantee an adequate organisation and sufficient resources to effectively prevent and combat cybercrime, ensure that the law enforcement authorities work systematically to develop expertise and working methods to prevent and combat cybercrime, increase the awareness and knowledge of non-law enforcement authorities regarding how they can contribute in the work to prevent cybercrime, strengthen the international cooperation against cybercrime in order to increase legal proceedings in Sweden. Increasing knowledge and promoting expertise Mapping of vulnerabilities and needs for measures Objectives:  Knowledge in society as a whole regarding the most urgent vulnerabilities and needs for security measures is to increase.  The knowledge of individual digital technology users regarding the most urgent vulnerabilities and needs for security measures is to increase. There is a great potential for development regarding cyber security in Sweden, both at the societal level and at the individual level. However, cyber security knowledge and resources possessed by various organisations, and not least by private individuals, are often limited, for which reason it is important to be able to focus on the most urgent needs. The Government believes it is central that the cyber security measures taken are cost-effective. In cooperation with relevant stakeholders, MSB maps and examines society’s cyber security efforts. Among other things, MSB has in close collaboration with the Swedish Association of Local Authorities and Regions (SALAR) examined systematic cyber security efforts in the municipalities (MSB943). MSB’s analysis of this examination has culminated in eight recommendations to the municipalities (MSB1045). In the Government’s assessment, it is important to continue developing 21
