# Council Decision of 31 March 1992 in the field of security of information systems (92/242/EEC), Division 5.1: Issue

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

Systematic investigation and development of the technology to permit economically viable and operationally satisfactory solutions to a range of present and future requirements for the security of information systems is a prerequisite for the development of the services market and the competitiveness of the European economy as a whole.
Any technological developments in the security of information systems will have to include both the aspects of computer security and security of communications as most present-day systems are distributed systems, and access to such systems is through communications services.
