Acc. Art. 44 TKG 2021 the regulatory authority has responsibilities regarding the security and integrity of networks and services in Austria. On the basis of the Austrian Cybersecurity Strategy (ÖSCS) and the Austrian Program for the Protection of Critical Infrastructure (APCIP), RTR took the initiative in 2017 and carried out a risk assessment for the telecommunications sector. To ensure the timeliness of the identified risks and the derived action recommendations, a regular reassessment is required.
In addition, RTR subjected the 2018 telecommunications industry risk analysis to a reassessment with regard to potential risks in connection with the introduction of 5G technology. The analysis was completed by RTR in June 2019.
