DIGITAL SECURITY

The EC has established a Public Private Partnership (PPP) in Cybersecurity with a budget of ~€450M - inter alia the PPP will influence the Digital Security content of the 2018-2020 Work Programme

DIGITAL SECURITY – THE PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP

4 main thrusts:1. Developing a European Ecosystem for the Cybersecurity Market and Digital Society2. Applying cybersecurity technologies and infrastructures for protecting vital societal services and the economy3. Developing European trustworthy cyber solutions for supporting the European cybersecurity strategies (and policies)4. Increase European excellence and competitiveness on cybersecurity

8 main thematic priority areas (practically the full spectrum of needs, clustered in main areas):– Education and training– Certification, standardisation, Go To Market, SMEs growth– Demonstrations for the society, economy, industry and vital services– Collaborative intelligence to manage cyber threats and risks– Remove trust barriers for data-driven applications and services– Maintain a secure and trusted ICT infrastructure in the long-term– Intelligent approaches to eliminate security vulnerabilities in systems, services and applications– From security components to security services

DIGITAL SECURITY – PPP Clustering Priorities

• The Irish Security Research Network (serenity) is deep rooted within Ireland’s security ecosystem and aside from highlighting European funding opportunities it contributes to security related industrial development in Ireland

• Ireland had a good year in 2015– RoI won 3% of the overall budget

– RoI won 9% of the EC ‘Fight against Crime & Terrorism’ (FCT) budget

– RoI won 3 from 45, i.e. 6.7%, of winning proposals from across Europe

• Attend the SMIG meeting (probably Feb 2nd/3rd) and talk to me
