The Opportunities of Developing a Cyber Security Training Programme for Public Service in Hungary

Abstract

The public service is a key target of cyber attacks. In order to prevent and effectively tackle such attacks, organisations should continuously develop their defense capabilities. As part of this development, a public service cyber security training programme is needed, that aims at learning about and applying possible cyber attack alternatives. During the specification of the programme, domestic cyber security programmes should be explored in order to prove the need for the training and to adopt possible ‘good practices’. In this paper, I evaluate the Hungarian cyber security and cyber defence programmes including their content, key elements and possible shortcomings. Finally, I define the purpose of public service cyber security training
programme and identify its elements and requirements.
