Major Milestone — Over 100 Economies in the Index

The National Cyber Security Index (NCSI) has passed a major milestone — over 100 economies are now included in the Index.

Developed and maintained by the e-Governance Academy, the NCSI provides a structured, evidence-based overview of how governments are building their cybersecurity capacity. It covers 12 key areas, from legislation and cloud security to crisis response and cybercrime prevention, using 49 measurable indicators based on publicly available data.

Governments use the Index to assess their current capabilities, monitor progress over time, and plan improvements with confidence. The NCSI is also widely used by policymakers, researchers, and international partners to support strategic decision-making and capacity development.

Is your economy in the Index?
