Important work by Claudia de Andrade-de Wit in the Cyber Security Council
Entrepreneurs have a lot on their minds. Digital security is 1 part of this. On the fifth of June, Theo Henrar, co-chair of the Cyber Security Council together with council member Claudia de Andrade-de Wit, offered the advice to strengthen the cyber resilience of SMEs to Micky Andriaansens, Minister of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy.
This advice contains 3 points of attention:
- A structural approach to cyber resilience
- Providing tools
- Encouraging entrepreneurs to take action.
These points are in line with our commitment. Such as our Digital Economy Strategy and the Dutch Cybersecurity Strategy to increase our digital resilience. After all, we can only take advantage of the opportunities offered by digitisation if security is in order.
That is why there will also be 1 national cyber organization, where every entrepreneur can go. We do this by merging the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC-NL), Digital Trust Centre and the National Computer Security Incident Response Team for Digital Service Providers (CSIRT-DSP). We will also continue to create tools for entrepreneurs, as the Digital Trust Center is already doing.
Our ministry will take up the Council's further recommendations together with the Ministry of Justice and Security, so that our entrepreneurs can do business digitally securely. In doing so, we are working towards a healthy, sustainable economy.
