Belgian Cyber Force
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Belgian Cyber Force (Dutch: Cybermacht, French: Force cyber) is one of the five branches of the Belgian Armed Forces. It was created in 2022 under the name of Cyber Command, at the suggestion of Admiral Michel Hofman.[1][2] The branch received its current name on July 21, 2025.[3]
The primary mission of the branch is to secure the cyber space used by the rest of the armed forces and also to gather information and conduct operations. As of February 2026, the personnel of the branch was 32% civilian.[4] As Cyber Command, the branch was commanded by Major General Michel Van Strythem.[5]
