European Expert Association co-organized the session Global Cybersecurity Trends in Digital Era, which took place on September 26, 2019 within the framework of the III Kharkiv International Legal Forum at the Yaroslav Mudryi National Law University (Kharkiv).

European Expert Association is launching Ukrainian Cybersecurity Working Group. It is a civil cybersecurity non-profit project implemented by multilateral partners, functioning on a regular basis and aiming to increase cybersecurity awareness of Ukrainian society as well as provide digital competence training.

The objective of the event, supported by the EU Project “PRAVO-Justice”, was to spread objective information on Ukraine’s progress toward intensified cooperation with the EU, advances in the reform of judiciary system, information security sphere, creating a system of counteracting to cyber operations, the country’s integration into European systems for detecting and responding to hybrid threats.

Maria Avdeeva representing European Expert Association has been invited to participate at the Warsaw Euro-Atlantic Summer Academy. WEASA 2019 entitled “Democracy in a Digital Era: Humans, Machines, Politics, Truth” was hosted July 7-17 at the Natolin Campus of the College of Europe (Warsaw, Poland).

On the week of March 11-15 EEA Director for ISS Maria Avdeeva took part at the Vienna Cyber Security Week. The conference brought more than 700 participants from 70 countries to Austria and became one of the largest network meetings in this field.

International cyber stability measures including the OSCE cyber/ICT confidence-building measures (CBMs), as well as how they can be deployed effectively were also discussed during the OSCE Informal Working Group Meeting on the 12th of March.

Cybersecurity challenges can no longer be solved by a single state for a long time. Cooperation in this area is therefore more important than ever. Intensive dialogue between research, industry and public society is essential to enable high levels of cyber security protection and to effectively address future global cyber threats.

The Vienna Cyber Security Week was organized by the Energypact Foundation, the AIT Austrian Institute for Technology and the Austrian Chamber of Commerce. Conference co-organizers include OSCE,  International Electrotechnical Commission and the International Telecommunication Union.
