Bulgaria's e-Government Minister Valentin Mundrov told EU telecom officials in Brussels that cyberattacks are wrecking hospitals, transit networks, and factories instead of just staying digital. The country learned some hard lessons after incidents hit its banks, healthcare systems, and government servers, and Mundrov said nations need to swap intel about threats without exposing weak spots. Bulgaria shares cyber situation reports with other member states every couple of weeks through networks like CyCLONE and platforms such as MeliCERTes.
Mundrov pushed for tougher oversight of big online platforms under the Digital Services Act, saying transparency improved, but coordination still lacks teeth. He backed digital sovereignty as a path toward making Europe more competitive and less dependent on outside tech while strengthening the single digital market.
