More instruments against hackers: the Federal Council wants to further strengthen protection against cyber attacks

class=”sc-cffd1e67-0 fmXrkB”>

The Federal Council wants to increase the protection of critical infrastructures against cyber attacks.

On Friday, the state government instructed the responsible communications department, Uvek, to submit a draft for the revision of the Telecommunications Act. In short: the security of telecommunications systems and digital infrastructures in Switzerland must be increased.

The Federal Council writes in a report that the geopolitical risks associated with the digital infrastructure are great, despite the measures that have already been taken. Many processes today ran over digital networks and systems that had security gaps or could be the target of cyber attacks.

The EU should serve as a model for the additional measures. There have been recent security concerns in EU countries, especially regarding the technology of China’s Huawei group.
