“PANACEA toolkit is a real panacea for healthcare cybersecurity in Europe. GDPR and ISO compliant, people-centric, it has been custom-designed for European hospitals, co-designed by healthcare staff together with industry and insurance companies and validated in three healthcare organizations from Ireland, Italy and Greece. Proud to coordinate the project.

Sharing our findings and results with cyberwatching.eu and peer projects is a key part of our dissemination strategy with a view to boosting impacts on all sides.

Cyberwatching.eu will help us share good practices for end-user cybersecurity, new knowledge in the field and insights on reciprocal go-to-market strategies.”

"An important part of any multinational project is dissemination & communication. Cyberwatching.eu gave us the platform to extend our dissemination abilities by leveraging the Project of the Week programme. As a selected project, our EU-funded FutureTPM gained recognition across many social platforms. And not only that, but our upcoming events were prominently listed which will certainly bolster attendance and further strengthen our dissemination efforts."

"Cyberwatching.eu is important for EU companies because it provides them with unlimited access to a marketplace and catalogue of new services that can improve their offering and ensure that cybersecurity becomes a unique selling point for them. Cyberwatching.eu creates value by collecting all R&I initiatives on cybersecurity across Europe, making them visible, accessible and usable from EU companies.

Cyberwatching.eu is also helpful for EU projects as it promotes them, increases their visibility and provides them feedback in terms of effectiveness and usability of research results.

Finally, EU citizens benefit from Cyberwatching.eu as it gives them access to innovative and trustworthy ICT products, services and software which take fundamental rights, such as privacy, into consideration."

"The role that Cyberwatching.eu plays as an observatory watching over the cybersecurity landscape across Europe is invaluable and a vital resource for all projects, pilots and clusters working in cybersecurity. Cyberwatching.eu reaching out to CyberSec4Europe was all the more appreciated for supporting us just as we were getting going with our own communication plans.

It was great working with the Cyberwatching.eu team whose enthusiasm to promote our project, its events and objectives, was infectious. CyberSec4Europe really benefited from the boost of being ‘Project of the Week’ – the results speak for themselves. Long may the collaboration continue!"

Cyberwatching has a huge importance for SMEs in Europe for a very simple reason: SMEs do not have the necessary resources to hire specialized technical resources.
In addition, most of the cybersecurity solutions present in the market are focused on large companies and SMEs can only access the traditional antivirus solutions that are clearly insufficient.

A marketplace about cybersecurity where SMEs can find other SMEs that offer solutions and services associated with cybersecurity that they can afford is, in my opinion, strictly necessary.

Jorge Marcos – Simarks

The SMESEC project started a couple of months ago a very fruitful collaboration with Cyberwatching.eu in order to identify common needs, stakeholders, business opportunity, etc. This collaboration has been very successful so far as we were invited to a webinar and a cybersecurity event (CyberSec 2018) where we were able to present our work to a large number of different organizations.

Thanks to this we were able to contact different SMEs and other cybersecurity organizations with interest in our results, both for collaborating in a joint development or use them in their day-to-day business.

GAIA has identified cybersecurity as one of the KET in our last strategic plan (2017 – 2021) and working with cyberwatching.eu network has allowed us to connect with potential European projects mainly related to ethics, trust and usability.

Moreover, GAIA is an active participant of the webinars organised by Cyberwatching, which has allowed us to identify potential collaborations for our cluster members allowing them to participate in some pilots and testing carried out by the different projects running.

We are constantly being challenged to do more in the fight against cyber crime. In reality, there is an amazing amount of work being done in Cyber all over Europe. The bigger challenge is finding out about all of this amazing work and communicating it to everyone.

CyberWatching are tackling this head-on by promoting cutting-edge cybersecurity work emerging from Clusters, Ecosystems, Research and Innovation Initiatives across Europe. Keep up the good work!

John Davies – South Wales Cyber Security Cluster

From a very practical point of view we have identified health, financial and maritime as key sectors in which Europe and US are willing to cooperate more in terms of stimulating innovation approaches in cybersecurity and privacy in order to shape the global landscape.

Fabio Martinelli - AEGIS project

Europe and Japan are in need of a stronger collaboration on cybersecurity themes.
Education and awareness, standards and regulation as well as information sharing are the top three areas on which international cooperation should be based.

Adam Kozakiewicz - EUNITY project

With the substantial investment being made by EC & national governments into cybersecurity R&I activities it is essential that these project create long term impact.

The first step in achieving this is understanding where the projects sit within a defined cybersecurity and privacy landscape, and the second is knowing where the products developed by these projects are in terms of readiness for usage outside the project, both individually but also when compared to other outputs in an overall view of the domain within the Cyberwatching Technology Radar.

David Wallom - Oxford University

In the cybersecurity sector, where investigation and innovation are key, having one of the leading observatories in Europe on your side, Cyberwatching.eu, is an advantage. A meeting place for professionals to learn and share experiences with leaders in the sector; a window to a collaborative effort to create a more secure environment.

Raul Perez

Why is cyberwatching.eu important for SMEs?

It’s the opportunity to network, cooperate and learn more about cybersecurity threats and solutions from champions in the field. It’s also the chance to showcase solutions and best practices, sell products, and use cutting-edge services from the world of R&I.

Sebastiano Toffaletti - Digital SME Alliance

Why is cyberwatching.eu important for EU companies?

cyberwatching.eu will provide the EU companies with easy access to the best and innovative solutions to address the cyber risks while also supporting the collaborations among the different actors at a European level.
