European Peace Facility Assistance on Cyber Defence in Moldova

Moldova is currently going through a process of transition to an information society and cybersecurity has a significant influence on its stability. As a result, the EU has provided support in cyber resilience in Moldova. EU’s European Peace Facility (EPF) was established to enable capacity building of military actors, and to provide training, equipment, and infrastructure for security purposes. The cyber defence component of the EPF assistance measure in Moldova will increase the ability of the Moldovan Armed Forces and the Ministry of Defence to detect intrusion to the information systems and to counter cyber-attacks.

The project covers the following main activities to achieve the goals:

• Cyber defence training and exercises
• Preparation for and delivery of cybersecurity equipment

Projects outcomes will be the improved network infrastructure and reinforced cyber defence capacities of Moldova.
