Within the framework of the Tallinn Mechanism, the project "Building Cybersecurity Capabilities for Ukraine" (CCBU) was launched, initiated by France, with the participation of Deputy Minister of Digital Transformation for European Integration Valeria Ionan and French Ambassador Gael Veyrier.
"The Tallinn Mechanism is a powerful example of international cooperation that helps Ukraine counter cyber threats and strengthen digital resilience. We are grateful to our partners for their continued support, which not only contributes to protecting critical infrastructure but also enhances the expertise of Ukrainian specialists. The development of knowledge and skills of civil servants and cybersecurity professionals is a key element of Ukraine’s national security and an inseparable part of our cooperation with the international community," said Valeria Ionan.
During the event, 20 training sessions were presented, which France will conduct for Ukrainian partners with the support of Expertise France until December 2025. These cybersecurity training sessions will strengthen Ukraine’s cyber resilience and promote the implementation of best international practices and standards in the field.
"This project illustrates our commitment to supporting Ukraine on a long-term basis, strengthening cooperation, and promoting the exchange of best practices in cybersecurity," emphasized Ambassador Veyrier.
The event brought together a wide audience of participants representing Ukraine's Ministry of Digital Transformation and international partners of the Tallinn Mechanism. During the discussions, participants learned about the best international practices in cybersecurity and identified ways to enhance the protection of Ukraine’s critical infrastructure.
The project is funded by the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs through the mAIDan Facility Ukraine program and is being implemented within the framework of the Tallinn Mechanism.
