What they argued
1. ON THE SIMPLIFICATION OF CYBER REPORTING European companies face an increasingly challenging environment, marked by the rising volume, complexity, and sophistication of cyber threats: since 2018, cyberattacks are considered as the most critical risk by Risk Managers worldwide (see: FERMAs Global Risk Manager survey, 2024).
Digitalisation and digital transformation are essential for competitiveness, resilience and innovation in the European economy. EU digital regulation should therefore support innovation and operational resilience rather than create unnecessary complexity or uncertainty. Legislation must be streamlined, coherent and proportionate across the EU digital and cybersecurity framework.
