Common notion of the project
For intellectual property reasons we can not give more details of the project that is already quite advanced in its drafting. In any case, it is framed within the specific challenge:
Europe’s SMEs, local public administration and citizens face particular challenges in addressing basic cyber security threats.
On one hand, in the case of SMEs and local public administration, their size and budgetary constraints often precludes them from putting in place highly granular organisational structures, retaining dedicated information security personnel and making significant investments in cybersecurity products or services.
Individuals, constantly portrayed as the “weakest link” face the daunting task of having to constantly adapt their behaviour at home and in the workplace and the way they use both their personal or work-related IT equipment and devices in order to avoid falling prey to the latest threats and techniques that malicious actors leverage against them.
Moreover, whether addressing SMEs, local public administrations or individuals, few cyber security solutions have been designed with the human factor in mind and therefore present severe limitations in their usability which hampers proper decision making and adequate usage.
This project is perfectly oriented to the scope and expected impact of the call, we include a validate through extensive end-user feedback and participation.
We give more details after the NDA agreement.
