The English version of the fourth Cyber security Assessment in the Netherlands has been published.
Cybercrime and digital espionage remain the biggest threat in the area of cyber security. The potential impact of cyber attacks and disruptions will only increase, due to rapid digitization. Another notable finding is the lack of so-called IT Durability. An example of this is the risk that an increasing number of devices is connected to the Internet, while these devices and their software are not maintained for extended periods of time by the suppliers. Also, privacy could be jeopardized by the technical ability to collect data. This is evident from the Cyber Security Assessment Netherlands (CSAN), which Minister Opstelten sent to the Dutch Parliament in July 2014.
