Germany seeks more EU member state control over cybersecurity certification
Germany is advocating for increased decision-making authority for EU member states regarding the future European cybersecurity certification framework. This push is part of the proposed reform to the Cybersecurity Act (CSA2) by the European Commission.
In a discussion document, Germany argues that national governments should participate more closely in evolving security objectives to keep pace with changing technologies and cyber threats. The German government contends that much of the specialized expertise in this field resides within individual member states and that security objectives directly impact national security.
Specifically, Germany proposes that the European Commission utilize implementing acts rather than delegated acts to modify security objectives. Implementing acts would ensure formal participation from member states before measures are adopted, whereas delegated acts grant the Commission greater discretion. Additionally, Germany seeks better alignment between the CSA2 and the New Legislative Framework for product certification and proposes the inclusion of cybersecurity professional certification within the framework.
