Abstract

The paper critically discusses recent developments in the European Union on (military) cyber defence capability development in the context of the Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP) of the European Union. It provides an overview of the current strategic framework for cyber defence capability development and describes the cyber defence capability development activities from 2011 to the present. It goes on to describe and explain the strategic policy changes in European defence that have taken place in 2016 with the EU Global Strategy for the European Union’s Foreign and Security Policy, the NATO–EU Joint Declaration and the European Defence Action Plan. Finally, it assesses the implications of these initiatives for cyber defence capability development in light of the changed global strategic environment and provides recommendations on how the cyber defence community can leverage these initiatives to accelerate the availability of sufficient and effective cyber defence capabilities and capacities for CSDP.
