European Commission adds GMV to the EU Cybersecurity Reserve, to strengthen defense against current cyber threats

GMV has been selected by the European Commission and the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) to join the EU Cybersecurity Reserve. This is a key initiative under the EU Cyber Solidarity Act, to provide immediate and effective responses to cyberattacks, including large-scale, high-impact attacks targeting the EU and its Member States and their essential entities.

The EU Cyber Solidarity Act, which has been approved by the pertinent European institutions, establishes the foundations of a common framework for detecting, preparing for, and responding to critical cyber threats. One of its key aspects is creation of the EU Cybersecurity Reserve, which has a membership consisting of a small group of top cybersecurity service providers in the industry, such as GMV, selected on the basis of a rigorous accreditation process. 

As a member of this restricted group, the Spanish multinational will continue to contribute its experience, technological specializations, and human and technical capabilities to European cyberdefense and cybersecurity operations. In addition, GMV’s contribution will be essential for achieving digital resilience in the EU, and for protecting critical infrastructure in strategic industries such as energy, transportation, healthcare, and telecommunications.

GMV’s contribution

With over 30 years of experience in the field of cybersecurity, GMV will be contributing a multidisciplinary team of experts, state-of-the-art security operations centers (SOCs), and its broad range of experience with managing high-impact incidents. The engineering multinational is working closely with European organizations, governments, and other leading companies, to implement advanced threat monitoring and detection, incident response, and resilience testing services.

According to Mariano Benito, Cybersecurity & Privacy Ambassador for GMV’s Secure e‑Solutions sector, “being part of the EU Cybersecurity Reserve is a recognition of our decades-long track record in the cybersecurity and defense industries, and it further reinforces our commitment to digital security for Europe. GMV is ready to act whenever we are needed, by providing our technology, experience, and immediate response capabilities for critical cyber threats.”

A more cyber resilient Europe

The EU Cybersecurity Reserve has been conceived as a mechanism for public-private collaboration, to make specialized technical and human capabilities available to public-sector entities in the European Union, whenever these capabilities are needed for managing and responding to significant cybersecurity incidents in an effective, agile, and coordinated way, or whenever cross-border cooperation is required.
