Strategic Cyber Security Actions
Overcoming the threats in cyber space which have been increasing every day
and minimizing the vulnerabilities within the national cyber space as much as
possible are of utmost importance for progressing towards an information
society which we have aimed to reach as a nation. Effective, high quality and
affordable usage of information technologies by all the members of the public is
important while evolving into an information society, but it is also very
important to achieve cyber security during the usage of these information
technologies. Therefore, cyber security, which is expressed as the protection of
information systems as well as the confidentiality, integrity and accessibility of
the information being processed by these systems, is a strategic and multi-stakeholder issue that would affect many aspects such as peace and welfare of the
society, the economic development and stability of the nation and the national
security of our country which has the aim to become an information society.
In this framework, it has been determined to perform strategic actions towards
achieving national cyber security in the 2013-2014 term, in light of the
principles determined above. These actions include sub-actions as required,
which are listed in the next chapter with the scheduled deadlines and the
responsible/relevant organizations. The strategic actions scheduled to be
