Position Paper – Cybersecurity Act

The French Union of Electricity welcomes the release of the « Cybersecurity Package » by the European Commission, which shows the Commission’s focus on cybersecurity matters. In an increasingly connected world, it is our common responsibility to fight against cyber-attacks and protect strategic infrastructures.
The French Union of Electricity supports the European Commission’s desire to enhance the means allocated to cybersecurity in the European Union. The legal frameworks and technical solutions implemented must help Member States in their progress to cyber-secure themselves.
However the Commission’s proposal does not give Member States the necessary instruments to actually strengthen Members States’ cybersecurity level.
