Show Notes
Sweden's integration into NATO, coupled with sustained, sophisticated cyber operations from state actors like Russia, China, and Iran, has dramatically intensified the threat level against its Critical Infrastructure and Vital Societal Functions (VSF & CI). To combat this escalating threat, Swedish legislation, including the new Cybersecurity Act (implementing NIS2), mandates all critical public and private operators implement systematic safety work, which is built on continuous risk management, Business Continuity Management (BCM), and event planning. This episode details the concrete steps required in this systematic process—from adopting an all-hazards approach to security measures and developing robust contracts, all aimed at reducing the critical preparedness gap within the civilian sector.
