The European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) and the European Commission signed a contribution agreement, through which the Commission entrusts ENISA with the administration and operation of the EU Cybersecurity Reserve, and provides ENISA with financial contribution to that end.
Juhan Lepassaar, Executive Director at ENISA declared: “Being entrusted with such prominent project, puts ENISA in the limelight as a dependable partner to the European cybersecurity community and it allows ENISA to break new ground towards an even more cyber secure digital single market.”
The EU Cybersecurity Reserve foreseen in Article 14 of the EU Cyber Solidarity Act, consists of incident response services from trusted managed security service providers.
This support mechanism will be used, should significant and large-scale cybersecurity incidents occur for the purpose of responding to and recovering from such incidents.
