It is based on a study conducted within the European network of Cybersecurity centres and competence Hub for innovation and Operations (ECHO) pilot project from the EU H2020 program. During the study, theoretical frameworks for governance model design and transition planning were tested and resulted in the identification of services and tools that can be multiplied to similar projects or CNO-aspiring organizations.
