An EU-wide Cyber Shield and Joint Cyber Unit were just some of the plans unveiled on Wednesday as part of Europe's bolstered cybersecurity strategy. EU High Representative Josep Borrell, Commission Vice-President Margaritis Schinas and Commissioner Thierry Breton laid out the strategy at a press conference in Brussels, promising it would strengthen the "collective resilience against cyber threats" across the bloc. Among the initiatives is the use of AI-enabled Security Operations Centres established across the EU to create a "Cyber Shield" that detects signs of attack and can launch early preventative action. Another is the creation of a Joint Cyber Unit to ensure better protection from harmful and cross-border cyber attacks.
