SNC2022 covers the whole of Senegal, and announces actions aimed at all sectors of the economy and strata of Senegalese society, including government institutions, private sector organisations and private individuals. The Government will therefore make every effort to ensure that the strategy is implemented for the common good. SNC2022 also proposes improving cybersecurity constantly at all levels for the common good, and defines the context in which Senegal is involved at international level to develop a safe, secure cyberspace. The strategy defines cybersecurity as protecting information systems (software, hardware and infrastructure), the data they contain and the services they supply or on which they rely against all unlawful access, modifications, obstructions and usage, including actions, whether unlawful or not, due to failing to apply good practice or security procedures properly. The key elements in SNC2022 are as follows: • Evaluating the strategic context of cybersecurity in Senegal, including current and future threats; • The Government's vision for cybersecurity and the strategic aims to be achieved; • General principles, roles and responsibilities which can reinforce this strategy; • The logical framework for implementing it. 3 APPROACH The Government's approach to meet the cyberthreats Senegal faces is based on a precise vision and strategic aims. This approach will strengthen everything which is being done in Senegal to improve companies' cybersecurity by private individuals, public and private sector organisations and civil society and the academic world. 3.1 Vision statement The strategic vision as proposed represents what Senegal wants for the future. It is rational, all-embracing and forward-looking, analysing the reference situation for cybersecurity2 and defining the course for the various strategic development aims. To this end, the vision says: "In Senegal in 2022, a cyberspace of confidence, secure and robust for all" 3.2 Strategic aims To realise this vision, the Government of Senegal will endeavour to reach five strategic aims as follows: 1. Strategic aim 1: strengthen the legal and institutional cybersecurity framework in Senegal; 2. Strategic aim 2: protect critical information infrastructures (CII) and information systems of the State of Senegal; 2 The reference situation in Senegal in terms of cybersecurity, by experts from Oxford University, March 2016 10
