Digital Resilience Strategy 2026
2026 marks a turning point for Polish businesses. Three critical vectors converge: legislative pressure (NIS2, DORA), threat escalation (Poland #1 in ransomware attacks), and an investment window (billions from the National Recovery Plan).
This e-book is not a theoretical lecture. It is an operational manual that guides you from diagnosis (Gap Analysis), through funding selection, to implementing procedures compliant with legal requirements.
Numbers That Should Alarm You
Data from the report — verified as of November 2025.
"Cybersecurity in 2026 is not a matter of technology, but of operational risk management. Our goal is to take that risk off the Board's shoulders.
Why is "do it yourself" a dead end?
Building Your Own SOC 24/7
- • Team cost (10-12 FTEs): ~PLN 2.0M/year
- • Technology and licenses (SIEM, SOAR, EDR): ~PLN 0.8M
- • Maintenance, training, retention: ~PLN 0.6M
- • TOTAL: ~PLN 3.4M in the first year
Plus: lack of specialists on the market, risk of turnover, need for continuous competency development.
Managed SOC (nFlo InfraGuardian)
- • Cost: 30-50% of building your own SOC
- • Transfer of turnover and maintenance risk to the provider
- • Ready, operational system from day 1
- • Enterprise-class IBM technology
Plus: eligible for KPO funding covering up to 100% of qualified costs.
In the e-book, you will find a full cost calculation and arguments for a conversation with your CFO.
What Will You Find in the E-book?
10 chapters of practical knowledge. Each concludes with concrete takeaways and recommendations.
