Before addressing the individual objectives (in the file attached), I-Com deems it essential to highlight that the current EU digital regulatory framework is already very complex, articulated (and sometimes poorly harmonized), and largely still in its initial implementation phase (e.g., DSA and DMA, Data Act).

What they argued
I-Com agrees on the necessity to streamline cybersecurity requirements and reporting obligations. The current European regulatory ecosystem appears as a vast constellation, imposing a significant volume of duties and obligations often on the same entities which must carry out numerous activities, sometimes with differing timelines and procedures, to achieve identical or very similar objectives.
I-Com agrees with the Commission's initiative, since an understanding of technological and market trends is a necessary precondition for assessing the appropriateness of any proposals for the adoption of legislation or moral suasion.
