The Italian National Cybersecurity Strategy 2022-2026 represents a fundamental pillar to strengthen the digital protection of our country. This ambitious plan aims to ensure a high level of cyber resilience, protecting critical infrastructures, promoting innovative technologies and addressing growing cyber threats. The Prime Minister, together with the Council of Ministers, plays a central role in the supervision and implementation of this strategy, guiding national policies towards strategic autonomy and cooperation at European level.
The main objectives of the strategy include improving the security of critical infrastructures in the energy, transport and healthcare sectors, as well as strengthening the resilience of public administrations. This means being ready to manage cyber emergencies, responding rapidly to attacks and minimising damage. To support these initiatives, a fund for the implementation of the national cybersecurity strategy has been set up, with resources amounting to millions of euros, dedicated to cyber crisis management and the protection of digital infrastructures.
A central aspect of the strategy is the strengthening of governance. The National Coordination Centre plays a key role, promoting cooperation between national and European authorities and facilitating the sharing of information on risks and threats. This integrated approach is supported by a detailed implementation plan, which ensures that the measures envisaged must be effective and adaptable to the evolution of the cyber threat.
Cyber crisis management is one of the key elements of the plan. The strategy aims to prevent, respond and recover rapidly from cyber attacks, involving the public and private sectors to build a solid resilience of the country. This approach also includes innovative measures such as improving security in the supply chain of ICT products and services, introducing cybersecurity requirements in public procurement and countering online disinformation, considered one of the main hybrid threats.
The National Cybersecurity Agency (ACN) plays a key role in implementing the strategy, working with the Prime Minister and the National Coordination Centre to ensure an integrated approach. In addition, the Agency promotes training and awareness-raising programmes to raise awareness among citizens and businesses, providing practical tools to adopt good cyber hygiene practices.
The 2022-2026 national cybersecurity strategy is not limited to risk management, but looks to the future, promoting the development of digital skills and fostering national and European strategic autonomy in the digital sector. Through international cooperation, our country is committed to creating a safe and resilient environment, decisively addressing the challenges of the digital landscape.
