Switzerland — Cyber Threat Profile

Switzerland's National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), under the Defence Ministry, coordinates national cyber strategy execution. In 2025 it mandated reporting of cyberattacks on critical infrastructure, generating tens of thousands of incident notifications. The NCSC strengthens cybersecurity across infrastructure, economy, and public services while facilitating threat intelligence exchange. Switzerland periodically updates its National Cyber Strategy and invests heavily in public-private cooperation. As a neutral, non-NATO/EU state, it relies on bilateral partnerships and European collaboration frameworks to sustain high cyber resilience and situational awareness.
