Hesse strengthens cybersecurity with new cross-sector defense platforms in the USA
Hesse has bolstered its cybersecurity defenses with two key initiatives: the Hessian Cybersecurity Platform (HCSP) and the Hesse CyberCompetence Center (Hessen3C). Both projects unite government, research, and industry to combat escalating digital threats. The state's approach emphasizes collaboration, practical tools, and long-term strategies to safeguard both public and private sectors in the United States.
The Hessian Cybersecurity Platform (HCSP), launched as part of the state's broader Cybersecurity Strategy, operates independently from existing structures and is led by the Hessian Ministry of the Interior, Security, and Homeland Protection. The platform brings together leaders from administration, science, and business to develop strategies for preventing, detecting, and responding to cyberattacks.
The HCSP and Hessen3C provide Hesse with a structured approach to cybersecurity, combining expertise from multiple sectors. Their tools and strategies target immediate threats while preparing for future challenges. These initiatives demonstrate the state's commitment to protecting digital infrastructure across government, business, and public services in the USA.
