Estonia’s Cyber Security Strategy

Following the attacks on Estonia, they published a pretty interesting paper called Cyber Security Strategy by the Ministry of Defense in Estonia. One thing which I see again and again is that most of the people looking into such strategies conclude that strong collaboration is needed between the different players as well as across country borders. I recently made the statement that the only people profiting from missing collaboration are the criminals – and I am serious about that.

So, there are five policies identified by Estonia to work on:

1. The development and large-scale implementation of a system of security measures
2. Increasing competence in cyber security
3. Improvement of the legal framework for supporting cyber security
4. Bolstering international co-operation
5. Raising awareness on cyber security
