Abstract

The National Center for Security in Control Systems for Critical Infrastructure (NCS3) is a collaboration between the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB) and the Swedish Defence Research Agency (FOI). The objective is to strengthen the security of systems that constitute critical infrastructure. The work carried out within NCS3 is regulated by assignments from MSB. This report summarizes the assignments agreed upon during 2023. During the year a study regarding production of drinking-water was conducted. In addition, a study was conducted with the aim of mapping the conditions and factors that affect actors' ability to participate in awareness and knowledge enhancing courses in the field of cyber security. This year's activities also include seven completions of three different training courses.
