The NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA) facilitated exercise “Cyber Unity 2025” - a one-week-long professional seminar focused on the importance of building cyber capabilities - co-hosted by the U.S. European Command (USEUCOM) and Luxembourg’s Directorate of Defence, from 20 to 24 January, and hosted at NSPA headquarters in Luxembourg.

 

Cybersecurity is a complex and resource-intensive endeavor, requiring significant expertise, technology and infrastructure. By working together with Allies and partners, NSPA contributes to the ability to collectively pool resources and expertise, creating a stronger and more resilient cybersecurity posture across the US and European theaters.

“NATO Allies and partners must continue to enhance their collective resilience and preparedness to respond swiftly to sophisticated cyber threat actors as cyber incidents continue to increase across the Alliance. With Cyber Unity 2025, multiple NATO Allies and partners were able to challenge their readiness to detect and respond to realistic cyber-attacks, as well as their capacity to collaborate and share information among different nations,” said prof. dr. Sergio Coronado, NSPA Chief Information Officer.

 

 

Cyber Unity is designed to enhance Allied cooperation on the ground with 10 participating Allied countries – Armenia, Albania, Bulgaria, Croatia, Greece, Kosovo, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Romania, and Slovenia, while validating and testing cyber protection tools leveraging the Luxembourg Cyber Range platform developed by CybExer Technologies and hosted by NSPA. Through joint training and security cooperation, all Cyber Unity 2025 participants have contributed to building capacity and trust among like-minded nations to address challenges, identify threats, deter attacks and protect networks.

“The cyber domain is critical for both civilian and military infrastructure and is under constant threat from sophisticated adversaries. Our collective efforts to protect against cyber-attacks are essential, and we will continue to work together to strengthen our cyber defenses and ensure the security and resilience of our critical infrastructure at home and abroad,”  said U.S. Army Maj. Gen. John Phillips, EUCOM Director C4/Cyber.

 

 

USEUCOM, NSPA and Luxembourg’s Directorate of Defence co-organized this edition to provide a forum for Allies and partners to test and utilise open-source tools in a live cyber incident scenario, and translate technical findings into strategic level decisions.
