The Authority's purpose is the organisation, coordination, application and control of an integrated framework of strategies, measures and actions to reach a high level of cybersecurity in the country (Article 4(1)).
Among its tasks it shapes and monitors the framework of technical measures and security requirements for information and communications technology systems (Article 4(2), item η). A reference in legislation to the General Directorate of Cybersecurity of the Ministry of Digital Governance or to the National Cybersecurity Authority means this Authority (Article 3(3)).

The Law was published in Government Gazette issue A' 23 on . The Authority reports that its first Governor was appointed as of April 2024. No publication of the Council of Ministers act appointing the Governor, and so no day on which Part A took effect, has been located.
