Cyber Impact Stories

The Cyber Impact Stories is an initiative by the GC3B that aims to illustrate how cybersecurity capacity building (CCB) is having a positive impact globally. Cybersecurity capacity building is a critical part of the digital transition, having a wide impact from critical national infrastructure to cyber crime. Digital capacity building and cybersecurity capacity building are two sides of the same coin, but cyber capacity building remains an abstract concept that is hard to understand in practice.
