What is the cyberwatching.eu Observatory?

Over the next 48 months, our Observatory will become THE European hub for Cybersecurity and Privacy. We'll monitor R&I initiatives throughout EU & Associated Countries while supporting European stakeholders in playing an active role in shaping the global cybersecurity & privacy landscape.
Through a combination of clustering activities and Technical and Market Readiness Level Workshops, we will monitor the whole lifecycle from research development and implementation, to validation and market uptake, making it possible for stakeholders to increase their knowledge, raise their awareness and find possible synergies between different initiatives.

Who benefits and how?

The cyberwatching.eu Observatory will be the natural ground  to identify initiatives encompassing security and privacy R&I with a high potential for cross-fertilization and synergy. SMEs, investors, R&I projects and policy makers can all beneift:

  • The Observatory will enable operators of essentials services and digital service providers to find and procure the best innovative solutions for risk management and incident reporting.
  • The Observatory will offer a fresh, new approach to R&I impact, guiding mainly technical experts within public and private organisations actions on CS&P with the staged integration of a marketplace and catalogue of services for commercialising results.
  • The Observatory will help policy makers and regulators to monitor impact of R&I actions for maximum RoI, shape future research directions for the DSM, provide timely roadmaps on CS&P, regulatory compliance and policy actions, as well as ICT standardisation.

Call for experts for a group on liability and new technologies

The European Commission has launched a call for experts for a group on liability and new technologies. The deadline for application is 30 April 2018.

New technologies such as artificial intelligence, advanced robotics and the Internet of Things bring enormous opportunities in various fields (transport, healthcare, agriculture, manufacturing). At the same time they could raise challenges related to liability, which is why the Commission wants to initiate a discussion on the way forward.

The main tasks of the Expert Group will be:

StandICT.eu - Supporting European Experts contribution to International ICT Standardisation Activities

Are you an ICT specialist involved in one of the main field of the European Digital Single Market? StandICT.eu is the chance for you to give your contribution to the development of ICT standards on global basis and benefit of concrete financial support!

EU Blockchain Observatory and Forum

On the 1st of February 2018, the Commission launched the EU Blockchain Observatory and Forum. The Blockchain Observatory and Forum is going to be a powerful tool in order to better showcase key developments of the blockchain technology, promote European actors and reinforce European engagement with multiple stakeholders involved in blockchain activities.

H2020 project clustering event - The chance to boost EU synergy in Cybersecurity

Cyberwatching.eu will attend the coming "H2020 clustering event" in Athens to further promote the catalogue of projects, the clustering initiatives and to establish stronger relationships with a wide network of EU organisations coping with cybersecurity.

The European cybersecurity centres of expertise

The Commission is calling on all cybersecurity competence centres across the EU, whether public or private, to register their organisations and share information about their work and expertise.

Striving towards a more effective approach to cybersecurity in Europe: ENISA

The DSM meeting of the past 12th December provided remarkable outcomes to pave the way for a more efficient cybersecurity strategy and  the adoption of a voluntary European cybersecurity certification framework in Europe.

Top 7 predictions for cybersecurity in 2018: preventive strategies for SMEs and organisations

The business world is increasingly networked and relies on networked systems and on cloud-data storage more than ever. The coming year is expected to bring even more connectivity, increasing amounts of data and digital transformation initiatives for companies worldwide. This fast-changing scenario will entail new cybersecurity threats and aspects that need to be addressed accordingly.  

TYPES: helping users in the current quest for privacy & data protection

Types aims to safeguard the individual’s privacy and put them in control of how their data is handled by providers for commercial or advertising purposes. Types also allows users to verify in a simple way if their online rights are adequately safeguarded and if personal data is exchanged for useful reason, and namely to deliver added-value to the end-user.

SAINT survey on cybersecurity and cybercrime

The SAINT project aims at tackling the issue of failures in cybersecurity through a multifaceted approach that goes beyond the sole technical standpoint. Building upon the valuable oucomes and research of previous projects, Saint combines these insights together to further advance into economic, behavioural, societal and institutional views with a view to pursue new methodologies to improve efficiency and cost-effectiveness of cybersecurity.

The most alarming cybersecurity threats for SMEs

Small businesses may consider themselves too little to appeal as an inviting target for cyber-attacks. They could not be more mistaken. Indeed, they face the same (if not greater) risk of being a victim of cyber-crime. Surprisingly, two out of three UK small firms suffered hacker’s attacks between 2014-2016 (as reported from Federation of Small Businesses).
