Recital 4
Recital 4
(4) The Union institutions, bodies and agencies are attractive targets who face highly skilled and well-resourced threat actors as well as other threats. At the same time, the level and maturity of cyber resilience and the ability to detect and respond to malicious cyber activities varies significantly across those entities. It is thus necessary for the functioning of the European administration that the institutions, bodies and agencies of the Union achieve a high common level of cybersecurity through a cybersecurity baseline (a set of minimum cybersecurity rules with which network and information systems and their operators and users have to be compliant to minimise cybersecurity risks)the implementation of cybersecurity risk management measures commensurate to the respective risks posed, information exchange and collaboration.

Recital 6
Recital 6
(6) To reach a high common level of cybersecurity, it is necessary that each Union institution, body and agency establishes an internal cybersecurity risk management, governance and control framework that ensures an effective and prudent management of all cybersecurity risks, and takes account of business continuity and crisis management. The framework should lay down cybersecurity policies and priorities for the security of network and information systems encompassing the entirety of the ICT environment. The framework should be reviewed on a regular basis and at least every three years on the basis of key performance indicators to ensure that strategic objectives are met.

Recital 7
(7) The differences between Union institutions, bodies and agencies require flexibility in the implementation since one size will not fit all. The measures for a high common level of cybersecurity should not include any obligations directly interfering with the exercise of the missions of Union institutions, bodies and agencies or encroaching on their institutional autonomy. Thus, those institutions, bodies and agencies should establish their own frameworks for cybersecurity risk management, governance and control, and adopt their own baselines and cybersecurity plans. cybersecurity risk management measures and cybersecurity plans. Union institutions, bodies, offices and agencies should continuously evaluate the effectiveness of the adopted risk management measures and their proportionality relative to the identified risks, and where necessary, adjust and revise accordingly their frameworks and plans on the basis of the results of the cybersecurity maturity assessments.

Recital 9
(9) A high common level of cybersecurity requires cybersecurity to come under the oversight of the highest level of management of each Union institution, body and agency, who should approve a cybersecurity baseline that shouldoversee the implementation of the provisions of this Regulation and approve the establishment, and any subsequent revisions thereof, of the risk management and control framework, the corresponding cybersecurity risk management measures addressing the risks identified underin the framework to be established by eachand the cybersecurity plans of each Union institution, body, office and agency. Addressing the cybersecurity culture, i.e. the daily practice of cybersecurity, is an integral part of a cybersecurity baselinerisk management, governance and control framework and the corresponding cybersecurity risk management measures in all Union institutions, bodies, offices and agencies.

(11) In May 2011, the Secretaries- General of the Union institutions and bodies decided to establish a pre- configuration team for a computer emergency response team for the Union’s institutions, bodies and agencies (CERT- EU) supervised by an inter-institutional Steering Board. In July 2012, the Secretaries-General confirmed the practical arrangements and agreed to maintain CERT-EU as a permanent entity to continue to help improve the overall level of information technology security of the Union’s institutions, bodies and agencies as an example of visible inter-institutional cooperation in cybersecurity. In September 2012, CERT-EU was established as a Taskforce of the European Commission with an interinstitutional mandate. In December 2017, the Union institutions and bodies concluded an interinstitutional arrangement on the organisation and operation of CERT-EU3 . This arrangement should continue to evolve to support the implementation of this Regulation and be evaluated on a regular basis in light of future negotiations of long-term budget frameworks allowing for further decisions to be made with respect to the functioning and institutional role of CERT-EU, including the possible establishment of CERT-EU as a Union office. _________________ 3 OJ C 12, 13.1.2018, p. 1–11.

Recital 13
(13) Many cyberattacks are part of wider campaigns that target groups of Union institutions, bodies and agencies or communities of interest that include Union institutions, bodies and agencies. To enable proactive detection, incident response or mitigating measures, and recovery from significant incidents, Union institutions, bodies and agencies should notify CERT- EU of significant cyber threats, significant vulnerabilities and significant incidents and share appropriate technical details that enable detection or mitigation of, as well as response to, similar cyber threats, vulnerabilities and and recovery from similar incidents in other Union institutions, bodies and agencies. Following the same approach as the one envisaged in Directive [proposal NIS 2], where entitUnion institutions, bodies, offices and agencies become aware of a significant incident they should be required to submit an initial notificationearly warning to CERT- EU within 24 hours. Such information exchange should enable CERT-EU to disseminate the information to other Union institutions, bodies and agencies, as well as to appropriate counterparts, to help protect the Union IT environments and the Union’s counterparts’ IT environments against similar incidents, threats and vulnerabilities.

Recital 13 a (new)
(13 a) This Regulation lays down a multiple-stages approach to reporting of significant incidents in order to strike the right balance between, on the one hand, swift reporting hat helps mitigate the potential spread of incidents and allows entities to seek support, and, on the other hand, in-depth reporting that draws valuable lessons from individual incidents and improves over time the resilience of individual Union institutions, bodies, offices and agencies and contributes to increasing the overall cybersecurity posture of European administration. In this regard, the Regulation should also include reporting of incidents that, based on an initial assessment performed by the Union institution, body, office or agency, may be assumed to lead to severe operational disruption or financial losses or affect other natural or legal persons by causing considerable material or non- material losses. Such initial assessment should take into account, amongst other, the affected network and information systems and in particular their importance for the functioning and operations of the Union institution, body, office or agency, the severity and technical characteristics of a cyber threat and any underlying vulnerabilities that are being exploited as well as the Union institution, body, office or agency’s experience with similar incidents. Indicators such as the extent to which the functioning of Union institution, body, office or agency is affected, the duration of an incident or the number of affected users could play an important role in defining whether the operational disruption of the service is of severe nature.

(20) In supporting operational cybersecurity, CERT-EU should make use of the available expertise of the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) through structured cooperation as provided for in Regulation (EU) 2019/881 of the European Parliament and of the Council5 . Where appropriate, dedicated arrangements between the two entities should be established to define the practical implementation of such cooperation and to avoid the duplication of activities. CERT- EU should cooperate with the European Union Agency for CybersecurityENISA on threat analysis and share its threat landscape report with the Agency on a regular basis. _________________ 5 Regulation (EU) 2019/881 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 April 2019 on ENISA (the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity) and on information and communications technology cybersecurity certification and repealing Regulation (EU) No 526/2013 (Cybersecurity Act) (OJ L 151, 7.6.2019, p. 15).
