- The Austrian Cyber Security Platform has been established as a public private partnership to facilitate ongoing communication with all stakeholders of the administration, economy and academia. In parallel, existing initiatives (e.g. Austrian Trust Circle, Cyber Security Austria, Kuratorium sicheres Österreich, A-SIT, …) are carried on and taken advantage of. The Austrian Cyber Security Platform provides the institutional framework for a permanent exchange of information within the public administration as well as between the public administration and representatives of the economy, science and research. All stakeholders participate on an equal footing. The Cyber Security Platform advises and supports the Cyber Security Steering Group.

- To promote the mutual understanding of challenges and opportunities for action of all partners involved in cyber security issues, exchanges of experts will be further intensified between the participating governmental, private and academic organisations. Under the leadership of the Cyber Security Steering Group and with the support of the Austrian Cyber Security Platform, a programme will be developed for this purpose.
