| Summary |
NATO's cyber defense policy has changed beyond recognition since the time of the Estonian cyber attacks of April 2007. The Alliance has learned the lesson, improving both its response capacities and its policy procedures. Despite some persistent issues yet to be addressed, the existing law and defense mechanisms are generally sufficient to protect NATO's networks and provide assistance to Allies when needed. NATO has established a framework between Allies' national cyber defense authorities and its own cyber defense agencies, for the improvement of information-sharing and the coordination of responses. In current circumstances, the Policy on Cyber Defense provides the alliance with the necessary guidance to respond to cyber attacks, but the success of this policy lies in its implementation. NATO must therefore ensure that Allies and partners follow its cyber agenda. Cyber threats are a permanent challenge for the Alliance's security, requiring strong commitment and a flexible response |
