We are NATO's technology and cyber experts. We are a team of 3,000 civilian and military staff members, located in 29 sites throughout Europe and North America. We help NATO and its member countries communicate and work together to fulfil their mission – preserve peace and security for nearly one billion citizens. The Agency is on the frontlines against cyber threats, protecting NATO's networks 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to prevent debilitating attacks. Our experts provide capabilities and services that are critical to NATO's ability to fulfil its core tasks of consultation, collective defence and crisis management. We achieve this by working in partnership with industry, academia and not-for-profit organizations. Our work helps NATO keeps its technological edge.
