Poland readies legislation to improve cybersecurity preparedness

The Polish government plans changes in legislation to meet EU standards related to state-level response to cyberattacks, government commissioner for cybersecurity Karol Okonski said. A team, which includes representatives of the Ministry of Digital Affairs, the Internal Security Agency (ABW), the Research and Academic Computer Network (NASK) and the National Institute of Telecommunications, is currently working on security standards for critical state infrastructure, Okonski told PAP. Their work will result in legal solutions aimed at counteracting the effects of cyberattacks, he said.
