Development of National Cybersecurity Guidelines regard to relevant government processes. It may range from mandatory training procedures for new staff to concrete security procedures for trans-border travel. In order to provide solutionoriented guidance, processes should be described as precisely as necessary. Processes should especially include prevention, preparedness, detection, response and recovery. Defining clear, government as well as industry-wide technical specifications for Cybersecurity, such as minimum requirements with regard to the encryption of classified documents, should overcome conflicts caused by differing standards. The risk assessment and emergency plans should provide guidance with regard to the most likely threats scenarios. KCSWG will be responsible for the coordination and prioritization of information collection activities with a focus on building and strengthening a local knowledge sharing community. It will furthermore identify minimum requirements and qualifications for information security professionals that will serve as basis for the development of a related curriculum.
