The most important advice is to update the operating system, and citizens can contact the National Center via Carnet, which has its own website. The president of the National Cyber Security Council, Aleksandar Klaić, pointed out that similar attacks took place in Croatia but in small proportions. The Council  includes representatives of 16 different institutions, which will seek to coordinate a faster response to threats.
