National leaders have turned down European Commission calls for a coordinated EU cyber-security strategy, leading to a “regulatory gap” and a “clear and present danger” of cyber attacks, a high EU official told EurActiv in an interview.
Robert Madelin, the Commission’s director-general overseeing digital matters, has warned about a “clear and present danger” of cyber-attacks in Europe.
“There are hundreds of attacks every day of the year,” Madelin told EurActiv in an interview, saying that difficulties in tracing their origin were “one of the big problems”
Large US banks came under a coordinated attack last week, which American officials traced back to Russian hackers.
