NCSI methodology 2.0 launched
25 Jan 2018
We have launched the second version of the NCSI methodology. The essence of the index has not changed - it still measures countries' cyber security situation through 12 strategic capacities, creating a global database providing links and documents about national cyber security. However, instead of 60 indicators we have limited the index to 46 indicators, which are grouped into 12 strategic capacities and further into three categories.
GENERAL CYBER SECURITY INDICATORS
- Cyber security policies
- Capacity to analyse national-level cyber threats
- Capacity to provide cyber security education
- Contribution to international cyber security
BASELINE CYBER SECURITY INDICATORS
- Protection of digital services
- Protection of essential services
- E-identification and trust services
- Protection of personal data
INCIDENT AND CRISIS MANAGEMENT INDICATORS
- Detecting and responding to cyber incidents 24/7
- Crisis management
- Fight against cybercrime
- Military cyber operations
