IT-lösningar är ofta komplext uppbyggda.

IT systems and services are often complex. In order to create a better picture of IT incidents and their consequences, government agencies are obliged to report all serious incidents that occur to Cert-SE at Myndigheten för civilt försvar (in Swedish).

Incidents in systems that handle classified information and concern Sweden's security must be reported to the Swedish Security Service.

Anyone providing telecoms services or network connections must, by law, maintain a reasonable level of technical security in their operations. The Swedish Post and Telecom Authority (PTS) is the authority responsible for supervision and control.
