Why cyber capacity building?
In an increasingly connected world that relies heavily on technology, and where cyber threats continue to expand both in number and complexity, robust cyber capacity is critical. International resources and collective investments in resources, knowledge and skills are key to ensure a free, open and resilient digital future, where no country is left behind in their digital transition.
