Cyber Security Risks
Cyber security risks were assessed realistically in order to define strategic
objectives within the scope of cyber security. The determined risks have been
listed below:
1. Interruption of energy, transportation etc. critical services as the result of
denial of service attacks and similar targeted attacks on information
systems used by critical infrastructures.
2. Stealing, disclosure, modification or destruction of personal information
and confidential publicly owned information by attackers as a
consequence of targeted attacks towards information systems used by
public and critical infrastructures.
3. Stealing, disclosure, modification or destruction of sensitive or
commercially valuable data by attackers as the result of targeted attacks
focused on acquiring trade secrets and know-how of institutions and
organizations (private companies, research institutions and defence
industry) engaging in research, development and production.
4. Harm the reputation of various institutions and organizations or the
disclosure, modification or destruction of sensitive information/data as a
consequence of hacker (hacktivism) attacks for propaganda purposes.
