Publications of the Prime Minister’s Office 2024:13 Development Programme, the TITUKRI resolution to improve information security and data protection in critical sectors of society, Digital Security in the Public Sector, and the Digital Compass Government report and associated implementation plan. The preparation work also considered a 2023 report on the authorities’ capacity to act in cyber security matters and the observations and areas for development that this report exposed. The preparations also collaborated with other ongoing projects that were initiated under the Government Programme. The target state for Finland’s cybersecurity strategy extends to 2035. The need to update the strategy will be assessed at five-yearly intervals, with the strategy developed or updated more frequently as required. Finland currently spends nearly EUR 300 million annually to ensure cybersecurity in central government, while the sum spent by the business community is at least ten times larger. Current basic funding levels nevertheless remain insufficient to respond to the evolving operating environment. Development proposals arising from the target state of the strategy will be implemented according to a separate implementation plan. The key terms used in this document are defined at the end of the strategy. A description of the national cooperation model for cybersecurity is also appended to the strategy. 11
