Czech Computer Security Issues

The Business Monitor International (BMI) believes that the growth of the information technology market in the Czech Republic will be a flat growth curve. This stagnant growth is due to the uncertain economic and political climate in the Czech Republic as well as the rest of the European Union.

Unemployment is expected to remain high and this will hold back the investment and consumer demand in the information technology market. Despite the poor economic conditions in Europe, the Czech Republic's business investment environment continues to be more robust than the rest of the Europe markets.

With the advent of new technologies, new opportunities for the development of the Czech society are made available; however, it also brings new requirements concerning the security of ICT's and the whole society. The Czech Republic's growing dependence on ICT's increases the vulnerability of the state and its citizens to cyber attacks. These attacks may have potential types of criminal, economic, or terrorist motives and may be potentially used to destabilize the Czech society. The Cyber Security Strategy of the Czech Republic attempts to solve these issues.
