Cyber Security & Resilience Workshop
In this new digital era, where the threat landscape is enormously evolving and the attack surface has never been wider, on-going policy as well as research and innovation (R&I) efforts towards transforming Europe into a Trustworthy Certified Digital Valley are of paramount importance. Such efforts are multi-faceted and address complementary dimensions of the topic, which is becoming particularly important in Europe with the increase of threats and incidents due to the geopolitical situation.
The Techritory Forum in collaboration with p-NET from Greece (p-net.gr) will host a co-creation Workshop during the 2025 event which will focus on the overall topic of Cyber Security and Resilience of Telecom Applications and Networks.
The workshop will be structured into two parts:
Part I: Cybersecurity Solutions for future networks, supported by the EU-funded projects:
- NATWORK (https://natwork-project.eu/)
and - SAND5G (https://sand5g-project.eu/)
The advanced and complex nature of 5G and beyond (B5G) networks, along with their widespread integration into everyday life, introduces new challenges related to security and resilience. As these networks evolve, adversaries are expected to become more advanced, using intelligent methods—including AI—to develop novel security threats. B5G networks are anticipated to serve as the backbone for connecting critical IoT-driven services like healthcare, transportation, PPDR, and energy, forming a human-centric cyber-physical ecosystem. As a result, any successful cyberattack on B5G infrastructure could have far-reaching societal consequences. Ensuring robust security and resilience is therefore essential for 5G/6G to effectively support a fully connected Networked Society, requiring a unified approach that addresses a broad range of concerns and close collaboration of involved stakeholders.
The SAND5G project will present and demonstrate a risk and impact assessment platform for 5G to support a) 5G stakeholders secure their systems and services b) National Authorities and Member States’ Regulators overview the security status and applied measures that implement their national cybersecurity strategies and legislation. The NATWORK project will present and demonstrate their efforts towards designing and deploying an economically realistic, energy efficient and viable bio-inspired AI-based 6G cybersecurity and resilience framework for intelligent networking and services.
Part II: Cyber security and resilience certification solutions, supported by the EU-funded projects:
- CURIUM (https://curium-project.eu/)
and - CUSTODES (https://custodes-project.eu/)
In today’s rapidly evolving digital landscape, cybersecurity certification is no longer optional, it is becoming a strategic necessity. Under the EU Cybersecurity Act, the EUCC implementing regulation, and the forthcoming Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), businesses, especially SMEs, are expected to meet rigorous, standardised cybersecurity requirements. Achieving certification is essential not only for regulatory compliance but also for market trust, customer confidence, and competitive advantage.
The projects will present and demonstrate innovative platforms, tools and services to guide businesses, especially SMEs, through the complexities of certification.
