Reports and Studies about Cybersecurity

The NIS Cooperation Group recently published five working documents, including some guidelines related to the implementation of the first EU cybersecurity law, the 2016 Directive on security of network and information systems (the NIS Directive) and addressing wider cybersecurity policy issues such as the cybersecurity of election technology.

The NIS Cooperation Group, established by the Directive on security of network and information systems (the NIS Directive) meets regularly in plenary sessions. The agenda is proposed by the Chair of the Group and agreed on by all members. This page is regularly updated with the agendas of the previous meetings.

The general report gives an update on how the EU is delivering on its 10 priorities, including the Digital Single Market.

The European Union Agency for Network and Information Security (ENISA) has released the first comprehensive study on cyber Threat Intelligence Platforms (TIPs) focused on the needs of consumers, users, developers, vendors and the security research community. The study channels its efforts into identifying some of the key opportunities and limitations of existing platforms and solutions, since information exchange formats and tools remain central items on the agenda of the cybersecurity community in general, and particularly of incident responders.

The H2020 Project Clustering Workshop, organised by the ReCRED project, took place in Athens on January 31st, 2018. Its main objective was to bring together 25 EU-funded projects in the fields of cybersecurity, access control, privacy and trust in e-Services and showcase either the complementarity of the proposed solutions, or their different implementations thereby comparing their efficiency and usability.

This document includes the multiannual planning of the European Union Agency for Network and Information Security (ENISA), the 2018 work programme and the multiannual staff planning.

This study published by the European Union Agency for Network and Information Security (ENISA) seeks to identify and analyse the current landscape of ICT security certification laboratories in EU Member States, comparing them also with third countries practices. The findings of this study will constitute the basis for the Agency’s proposal towards an EU wide ICT products and services certification framework.

ENISA has published two reports in the context of the fight against cybercrime. The first report focuses on “Tools and Methodologies to Support Cooperation between Computer Security Information Response Teams (CSIRTs) and law enforcement” and the second one on “Improving Cooperation between CSIRTs and law enforcement: Legal and Organisational Aspects”.

The study published by ENISA (the European Union Agency for Network and Information Security) aims to set the scene for IoT security in Europe. It serves as a reference point in this field and as a foundation for relevant forthcoming initiatives and developments. The report was developed in cooperation with the ENISA IoT Security Experts Group and additional key stakeholders.

The last phase of Horizon 2020, the EU's Research and Innovation programme, has been launched. Roughly EUR 6 billion out of the overall budget of EUR 30 billion will be spent on research and innovations in the ICT sector. ICT is present in many of the Horizon 2020 areas. This guide is designed to help potential proposers find ICT-related topics across the different parts of H2020 in work programme 2018-20.
