Following a request by the European Commission, the European Union Agency for cybersecurity (ENISA) will proceed with the preparation of the new candidate cybersecurity certification scheme on 5G.
This step follows on from the EU toolbox for 5G security and it is expected to further enhance the cybersecurity of 5G networks as it contributes to addressing certain risks, as part of a broader risk mitigation strategy.
To this effect, a cybersecurity certification scheme on 5G will be based on provisions already available by means of existing cybersecurity certification schemes as well as experience already acquired since the Agency started engaging in cybersecurity certification.
