Policy recommendations on civil-defence cybersecurity cooperation
For the European Commission, ECCC and Member States.
What it is
Targeted policy recommendations to EU institutions and Member States to strengthen transnational civil-defence cybersecurity cooperation and reduce regulatory friction across the two communities.
Why it matters
COcyber spent two years observing how civil-defence cyber cooperation works in practice across the Union, and the recommendations turn that into specific asks: which instruments to align, which governance gaps to close, which incentives are missing. The document is meant for the next Multiannual Financial Framework cycle and the implementation of the Cyber Solidarity Act, so it speaks the language of programme owners rather than of researchers.
