Ministry of Defense will construct cyber polygon and SOC

Montenegrin Ministry of Defense will start construction of an operation center for monitoring and protection of information of the Ministry itself and the Army of Montenegro in order to enhance cyber security. In addition, the Ministry also plans to construct the cyber polygon, which would be completed by 2028, reports Pobjeda, a daily.

The long-term defense development plan suggests that development of capacities for cyber security and upgrading measures for data protection represent a significant challenge in developing capacities within the Ministry of Defense and Army of Montenegro.

“In the forthcoming period, we plan to focus on developing our own capacities in terms of cyber security, primarily through setting up of an operation centre in charge of monitoring and protection of data (Security Operation Center, SOC). The Center will be responsible for monitoring, in accordance with the NATO Initiative on “Future Mission Network, FMN),” the defense plan suggests.

The Ministry also intends to establish an incident response team within the Ministry and Army (CIRT) and thus handle events involving computer security breaches.
