The cybersecurity of public institutions is also under severe pressure in many of Germany's partner countries. Cyberattacks are increasingly aimed at destabilizing the society and government of these states. The advancing degree of digitalization of public services increases the ongoing threat of such attacks.
The goal is to strengthen the capabilities of partners at the national and regional levels and to effectively protect both their citizens and critical civilian infrastructure from cyberattacks. This is achieved, among other things, through continuing education and training, promoting exchanges between diplomats and subject matter experts, and establishing uniform standards and institutions.
