El Gobierno reactiva la adjudicación a Telefónica del contrato de ciberseguridad del Estado

The Spanish Government has reactivated the awarding of a contract to Telefónica for consolidated cybersecurity services and data centre interconnection for the General Administration of the State. The contract is valued at over 100 million euros. This decision comes after a chain of administrative appeals, annulments, and judicial challenges by bidders that lasted over a year.

The Government's move to award the contract to Telefónica follows a prolonged process. No further details on the contract or the reasons for the delays were provided in the reports.

The reports also mentioned that the Government published new housing decrees, including one making rental contracts in Spain indefinite. However, the decree's success is uncertain due to the Basque Nationalist Party's (PNV) announcement that it will not support the decree. The decree is set to take effect on November 15.
