diversified, economic and sustainable energy supply, and ensures compliance with high security standards during the production, transport and use of energy. With the growing use of ICT in energy production plants and the power grid, the cyber aspects in these fields are also becoming increasingly important. Federal Office of Civil Aviation (FOCA) The FOCA is responsible for legislation and supervision of airports, airlines as well as air traffic control in Switzerland, for instance. Due to the increasingly close attention paid to the possible effects of a cyber attack on aviation, provisions to minimise cyber risks are more frequently being integrated into various sets of regulations. The FOCA is responsible for integrating these regulations into the national aviation safety programme, and implements them in consultation with the industry. Federal Department of Economic Affairs (FDEA) National Economic Supply (NES) The NES is a militia organisation with a full-time staff organisation and a secretariat (Federal Office for National Economic Supply, FONES). It has a management organisation consisting of private sector representatives. The ICT infrastructure (ICT-I) area of the NES is responsible for providing the country with the necessary information infrastructure (data production, transfer, security and availability) and telecommunications, in particular with countries abroad. It defines which Swiss supply infrastructure is systemically important and establishes a continuity and crisis management system for it. The ICT-I area continuously observes and analyses the general risks associated with data transfer security and availability. It takes measures to ensure, in the event of an emergency, suitable telecommunications with mobile partners abroad which are important for national economic supply. It prepares measures to ensure vital information and communication infrastructure and establishes the necessary preparedness for universal service. It also represents the area-specific interests of national economic supply in international organisations. Federal Department of Foreign Affairs (FDFA) The Federal Department of Foreign Affairs (FDFA) formulates and coordinates Swiss foreign policy as instructed by the Federal Council. The department's Directorate of Political Affairs monitors security policy developments abroad in the area of new types of threat and maintains relations with international organisations such as the UN, the OSCE, the EU, the Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council (EAPC) and NATO, which are increasingly dealing with cyber threats within the scope of their security policy dimension. It also establishes contact with these organisations and discusses the cyber threat issue bilaterally with other states, thereby creating a political foundation for Switzerland's cooperation in dealing with this type of threat. The Directorate of Public International Law deals with the impact of cyber threats on public international law. 20/42
