Poland cybersecurity and infrastructure threats

Overview

Poland is facing significant cybersecurity challenges due to its strategic position on NATO’s eastern flank and its support for Ukraine. Military officials report that the Cyber Defense Forces Component thwarts over 4,500 cyber incidents annually, many of which involve attempts to leak highly classified security data.

Beyond military systems, there is an increasing focus on protecting critical telecommunications infrastructure. Authorities have linked disruptions to satellite stations and Starlink facilities in Poland to Russian intelligence activities. To combat these threats, experts emphasize the need for technical resilience and effective crisis communication to mitigate disinformation and maintain public trust following cyberattacks.
