HOLISTIC AND INNOVATIVE APPROACH TO CYBERSECURITY

CYBERSEC

CYBERSEC is an annual public policy conference dedicated to the strategic challenges of cybersecurity, launched in 2015, a unique in Central and Eastern Europe and one of the top five cybersecurity events in Europe. Our mission is to build the foundations of mutual trust and translate challenges into new opportunities for a better tomorrow.

BECAUSE JOINT REFLECTION, DISCUSSIONS

AND ACTIVITIES TO SECURE DIGITAL FUTURE MATTER

THE QUEST FOR CYBER TRUST

With cyber disruption on the rise, the world is inevitably facing the emergence of new security challenges. They require responsible leadership to advance strategic actions and collaborative efforts of all stakeholders. A further development of our societies and economies will largely depend on whether we can make cyberspace truly secure. Strong confidence in digital public and commercial services is instrumental to build a trustworthy cyberspace.

Meanwhile, current trends are alarming. More and more state actors are developing their offensive capabilities to disrupt information systems of their adversaries, as well as using digital media to wage information warfare, which increasingly puts the foundations of democracy in jeopardy. Furthermore, the likelihood of terrorist activities in cyberspace and increasing cybercrime which generates enormous losses for the global economy complement this rather grim picture. The EU is strengthening its strategic autonomy. However, to build cybersecurity in Europe it is necessary to maintain close transatlantic relations and enhance regional cooperation. Governments create strategies, policies, standards and rules for cybersecurity, but they cannot forget that their implementation hinges upon close and trust-based cooperation with private sector. And finally, all actors must act with the welfare of every citizen in mind.

EUROPEAN CENTRE FOR

STRATEGIC DISCUSSIONS

ON CYBERSECURITY, A PLACE

OF INSPIRING DEBATES,

PRESENTATIONS AND

INFORMAL CONVERSATIONS.

The world’s top-class experts will enhance out-of-the-box thinking and make each CYBERSEC even more innovative. They will guarantee the highest quality of the conference programme and resultant post-conference recommendations.

There is no other conference that has such a diverse, international and highly qualified Committee, connecting both the public and the private sector.

THE DIGITAL 3 SEAS

INITIATIVE

The Three Seas comprises 12 EU countries and 114 million of citizens dwelling upon the territory accounting for over 28 percent of the EU and generating GDP worth USD 1.6 trillion. The ever-changing global security architecture renders the region increasingly vital for actors as varied as the U.S., Great Britain, China or Russia.

Upgrading the Three Seas Initiative by adding the digital and cybersecurity dimension to already existing ones: transportation and energy, may have geopolitical and geoeconomic consequences far beyond the CEE borders. Development of digital infrastructure in the face of 5G era, joint investments in state-of-the-art technologies such as IoT, blockchain and AI, deepen strategic and tactical cooperation to tackle cyberthreats and disinformation are in the core areas of the Digital 3 Seas Initiative.

I come here because not only do I think that my voice can have impact, but many of the voices that have come to assemble in unison can actually start to convince our governments, that we have something to do and should do with cybersecurity.

Ambassador Marina Kaljurand – Chair of the Global Commission on the Stability of Cyberspace; Former Estonian Minister of Foreign Affairs

You are doing a terrific job! Organization is perfect! I would say one of the best in Europe. Participants are good, speakers are good, so what can I say? Keep on working!
