- Definition
- A composite score published by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), assessing national cybersecurity performance based on five pillars: legal frameworks, technical measures, organizational structures, capacity development, and international cooperation.
- Interpretation
- Higher scores indicate stronger national capability to prevent, detect, and respond to cyber threats. In Zambia’s context, improvements in this index signal increased trustworthiness of digital platforms, but gaps may still exist in enforcement, skills, and institutional coordination. A strong score supports digital adoption, while weaknesses can undermine confidence in e-services and online transactions.
- Description
- Measures Zambia’s overall commitment to cybersecurity across legal, technical, organizational, capacity-building, and cooperation dimensions. It reflects the country’s readiness to secure digital systems, protect data, and sustain trust in digital services.
