Israel Moves Forward In Creating National Cyber Bureau



By Israel News Agency Staff

Jerusalem, Israel --- June 12, 2012 ... The following was communicated by the Israel Prime Minister's media adviser to the Israel News Agency.

Israel National Cyber Bureau head Dr. Evyatar Mataniah recently attended Tel Aviv University's 2nd Annual International Cyber Conference and noted that Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has approved the budget and work plan for the Bureau, which was established at the beginning of the year.

One of the aforesaid plans is the establishment in Israel of a national cyber situation room, which will construct a national assessment among the various organizations and constitute the beginning of a defensive layer on the state level.

The Cyber Bureau, which is focused on building a national cybernetic defense concept, is advancing national-level regulation on the issue of information security, which will lead to raising the level of cybernetic defense in Israel. To this end, a committee was established for representatives from all sectors, which will outline the main directions in the regulatory field.

The National Cyber Bureau will also begin the process of organizing the security field in cooperation with the security companies in the market, and will promote cooperation with international organizations so that Israel might accede to all of the important international treaties.

Dr. Mataniah emphasized the importance of links between academia, industry and the Cyber Bureau in order to create a national growth engine in the cybernetic field, and added that the Bureau attributes great importance to encouraging growth in the cybernetic industry and is promoting cooperation in the sector.

In recognition of the importance of human capital, the Bureau, in conjunction with the Israel Science and Technology Ministry, is investing NIS 50 million in scholarships and research in the cybernetic field in order to place Israel as a global leader in this field.
