LSEC plays leading role in Europe’s cybersecurity strategy as partner in anti-botnet pilots


Europe bands together to fight against botnets, LSEC leads pilot developments in Advanced Cyber Defence Center with EU support
LSEC - Association of information security companies in Europe and eco – Association the German Industry together with 28 partners from 14 European countries are launching a project against one of the biggest Internet security threats: Every fifth computer is currently estimated to be part of a botnet used by cyber criminals to infect end user computers with malware and gain remote access to them. Kicking off today in Frankfurt, the association begins its work as the coordinator of the Advanced Cyber Defence Center (ACDC) which is supported by the European Union.
The Advanced Cyber Defence Center is an important building block for the cyber security strategy of the EU. At the launch press conference on February 7th, EU-Commissioner Neelie Kroes said: “We need to protect our networks and systems and improve their resilience.

September 1st, 2012 LSEC starts Project FIRE - Investigating research activities and registering capabilities on it security throughout Europe

Together with partners from Spain, Estonia, Germany, UK and Czech Republic, LSEC started project FIRE that aims to facilitate access to it security research, capabilities and it security needs in order to reduce the gap between research and academia. A lot of research activities are unfortunately known only to few in the industry, whilst a lot of research interest is undocumented and gets lost. Also in an effort to reduce industry fragementation throughout Europe and make Europe a stronger Union with a more coordinated IT Security Industry. LSEC and its partners AMETIC, NSMC, Cybernetica, ifis - TeleTrusT and ADS Group - SITC will be actively identifying researchers, research, it security offerings and demand and als documenting this during seminars and online publications over the course of the next couple of years. For more information, please download our executive summary of FIRE, or contact your FIRE coordinator in proximity. .

Documents of Importance in 2012

LSEC is constantly trying to support you in your own efforts to create awareness in your own company on Information Security. Recently the following documents from our partners and members appeared late 2011 and early 2012. Divulge them yourself and share them with friends and colleagues. They are extremely valuable and interesting contributions on today's information security challenges.

Infosecurity Flyers to use and distribute

LSEC created some basic awareness flyers for people and companies to use for their internal awareness activities. Both in Dutch and French, they provide some basic guidance and information on some important security challenges. If you are interested in using our Information Security Flyers and basic guides in French or Flemish, they can be downloaded right away.

We willen het publiek, overheid en industrie informeren over vaststellingen die we hebben kunnen doen in het afgelopen jaar, en er enige context bijgeven. Op die manier zijn we in elk geval zeker dat ze niet onherkenbaar voorbij zijn gegaan, zodat we hopelijk in de toekomst minstens kunnen leren over de fouten uit het verleden
