"Cyber Tesla 2021" International Exercise begins
"Cyber Tesla 2021" International Command and Staff Exercise is being conducted this week in the "Vojvoda Radomir Putnik" barracks in Gornji Milanovac and in detached locations in the United States and Hungary.
The goals of the exercise, which focuses on the defence of the telecommunications and information system from cyberspace threats, are building the capacities of the defence system and the National Risk Prevention Centre in ICT systems of the Republic of Serbia for defence against high-tech attacks, as well as the improvement of cooperation with relevant state and private sectors, with a view to protecting the cyber space of the Republic of Serbia.
The exercise increases the capability to respond to incidents in cyberspace, improves the coordination of bodies and institutions responsible for cyber security, facilitates the exchange of experience in the field of cyber security and improves bilateral military cooperation between the Serbian Armed Forces and the armed forces of participating countries.Since 2016, exercise "Cyber Tesla" has been conducted once a year as part of the Serbia-Ohio State Partnership Program in the field of cyber security. Representatives of Serbia’s private and public sectors and cyber security community are also participating in the exercise, and this year, for the first time, members of the Hungarian Armed Forces are also taking part.
Members of the Serbian Armed Forces previously took part in the international offensive cyberspace operations competition, which was organized last week by the US Armed Forces and the National Guard Training Centre, University of Michigan, and took first place among 13 teams.
