Wednesday 22 April – Thursday 23 April 2020
Tbilisi, Georgia
Building on the success of the first EaPConnect Cybersecurity workshop, which took place in Berlin on 27-28 June 2018, this second event will go into more technical areas of cybersecurity. EU and EaP experts will share their experience and best practices in cybersecurity. Discussion sessions will explore the topics and opportunities in more depth.
Cybersecurity is of vital importance in todays globalized world and hence for the Eastern Partnership (EaP) countries. This event will introduce activities and contact people from the EU-funded projects CyberSec4Europe and GN4-3, the GÉANT project. What is needed for the EaP region and how can people from EaP organisations become more involved?
This workshop is open for around 25 people with a relevant technical background working in the area of cybersecurity who will be able to discuss details of the GN4-3 work package on cybersecurity. EaPConnect project partners can request funding support to attend the event; other interested parties are welcome but would need to cover their own costs.
