The 2026 National Cyber Security Exercise for state administration organizations was held from 25 to 29 May. In the exercise, the aim was to influence citizen services through cyber-attacks using real-world threat actor tactics and techniques.<\/p>\n

The purpose of the National Cyber Security Exercises (KYHA) is to develop expertise and cooperation, and to ensure the capability of critical infrastructure operators to act in cyber security crisis situations.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Exercise is useful when it reflects a real crisis situation\u2014and this requires the participation of all key roles”, says Janne Allonen, Deputy Cyber Security Director at the Ministry of Transport and Communications.<\/p>\n

There is a strong foundation in information technology expertise, but in addition, operational roles are needed, for example in management and in collaboration between organizations”, says Tero Kokkonen, Director of Jamk’s Institute of Information Technology.<\/p>\n

This year, the Digital and Population Data Services Agency, the Finnish Patent and Registration Office, the Government ICT Centre Valtori, the Legal Register Centre, the Prison and Probation Service of Finland, and the Tax Administration participated in the state administration organizations KYHA exercise.<\/p>\n
