Abstract
The current National cyber-strategy of Israel stemmed from the National Cyber Initiative and was declared in the Government Resolution 3611 ‘Advancing the national capacity in cyberspace’. The Israeli strategy aims at cyber-power, including more comprehensive defence, advanced research and development, developing cyber-technology as an economic growth engine, and leveraging cybersecurity for enhanced international cooperation. The Israel National Cyber Bureau (INCB) was established to develop and implement the strategy. The history of the INCB demonstrates the dynamics of cybersecurity policy. Among the INCB successes are developing and managing the incentives towards marked increase of cybersecurity education and research and development activities in academia, school system and industry, including the start-up scene.
