Høringsfristen er satt til 22. mars 2019. Den første høringen gjelder utredning fra IKT-sikkerhetsutvalget, NOU 2018:14. Den andre høringen gjelder utkast til lov som søker å gjennomføre EUs direktiv om sikkerhet i nettverk og informasjonssystemer (NIS- direktivet) i norsk rett. Innledende merknader Politidirektoratet har forelagt de to høringene for Kripos, Politiets IKT-tjenester og politidistriktene Troms og Oslo. Politidirektoratet har mottatt høringsuttalelse fra Kripos. Denne er vedlagt. Politidirektoratet har ingen merknader av betydning til høringen som gjelder utkastet til lov som søker å gjennomføre EUs NIS-direktiv i norsk rett. Kripos har heller ikke gitt merknader til denne høringen. Imidlertid reiser departementet fem konkrete spørsmål knyttet til høringen som Kripos har besvart. Det vises nærmere til det vedlagte høringssvaret fra Kripos. Når det gjelder høringen som omhandler utredningen fra IKT-sikkerhetsutvalget har ikke Politidirektoratet bemerkninger av betydning når det gjelder anbefalingene som relaterer seg til krav om IKT-sikkerhet ved alle offentlige anskaffelser, tydeligere regulering av ansvar for tilkoblede produkter og tjenester, samt anbefalingen som gjelder Justis- og beredskapsdepartementets lederskap for nasjonal IKT-sikkerhet. Politidirektoratet vil imidlertid som Kripos gi uttalelse til de to øvrige anbefalingene fra IKT-sikkerhetsutvalget. Dette er anbefalingen om etablering av et nasjonalt IKT-sikkerhetssenter og anbefalingen om en ny lov om IKT-sikkerhet for samfunnskritiske virksomheter og offentlig forvaltning.

DIALOG UE THE UNTHINKABLE Emergency preparedness is a key term for everyone involved with both security and safety in the petroleum sector. Players must have effective systems in place to prevent and respond to hazards and accidents which could result from their everyday activities. But they must also be prepared to deal with possible conscious attacks – 4 10 terrorism and deliberate assaults. No pat definitions exists for either security or safety. Incidents occasionally occur which nobody imagined possible and which no scenario had taken into account. Such events can overturn established truths and pose deep challenges for society. SECURITY The PSA has been given responsibility in 2013 for “security section” 9-3 of the Petroleum Activities Act, covering emergency preparedness 26 against deliberate attacks. That requires the industry to adopt and maintain measures to secure its facilities. This issue accordingly takes a look at three watershed events of recent years – the Nokas robbery in Stavanger during 2004, CONTENTS the terrorist attacks in Oslo and Utøya on 22 July 2011, and the BEING BETTER PREPARED 4-7 hostage drama at Algeria’s In Amenas facility in 2013. We introduce some of those who have sought to establish what CHANGING THREATS 8-9 failed, and present their analyses of what went wrong.
