Task fulfilment pursuant to NIS Act

When the Network and Information Systems Security Act (NIS Act) entered into force in 2018, the operation of GovCERT Austria was legally assigned to the Federal Chancellor.

GovCERT Austria is responsible for taking receipt of reports on risks, incidents and security incidents in connection in the context of public administrative bodies (section 22 para 2 and para 3 NIS Act).

Reports on risks, incidents and security incidents in the field of public administration can be submitted via the NIS reporting portal at nis.govcert.gv.at.
