"I fully agree with the concern that you have expressed. This is exactly the line we are developing.
Not so long ago, the European Union witnessed cyber attacks against public and private organisations in Estonia and in Lithuania, in 2007 and 2008 respectively. Thousands of cyber attacks are committed daily against European Union institutions and other public authorities.
The Commission recently responded to this alarming situation by proposing, on 30 September, a proposal for a directive on attacks against information systems, repealing the relevant framework decision from 2005. The overall goal of the directive is to combat large-scale attacks originating from and/or targeting the European Union.
We are very attentive to these concerns, and we believe that the proposal for a directive is a good one. It penalises the users of tools such as botnets for committing the offences, and introduces a higher level of sanctions for committing the offences. It introduces an obligation for Member States to respond to an urgent request from both the public and the private sector via the 24/7 network of contact points within eight hours of receiving the request, and introduces a monitoring obligation for Member States to facilitate the collection and provision of data about cyber attacks, including the number of prosecutions and criminal reports."@en1
