The minister stated that an assessment of recent computer security incidents was conducted by the Polish state National Institute for Research, alongside the government and the Ministry of Defense. This assessment determined that certain vulnerabilities posed a significant threat to public administration systems, entities within the Polish national cybersecurity system, and critical infrastructure. According to K.
Gawkowskis, these vulnerabilities could enable attackers to gain control of servers, thereby violating the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of sensitive data. Such breaches could also disrupt the continuity of essential digital services provided to the public. In response to these findings, affected organizations were immediately instructed to take specific protective measures.
They were directed to promptly install all available security updates and to conduct thorough checks of their system registries to detect any signs of potential cyberattacks. The government’s action underscores the perceived risk level associated with the identified vulnerabilities within key national systems.
