Falling Walls Remote 2020: The Breakthroughs of the Year

As much as the Covid-19 crisis restricts personal gatherings in 2020, it opens up a new opportunity for Falling Walls to overcome the limitations of a traditional conference through innovative, open and engaging digital formats (Never waste a crisis!). This year, we will shift from a series of meetings and one conference with a limited number of speakers and topics to a global showcase that gathers, celebrates and discusses a much broader set of the most recent breakthroughs in science and society – The Falling Walls Breakthroughs of the Year. We also want to contribute to the post-corona agenda through dedicated sessions. This year, we will not be taking all of your time for a couple of days, including travel, but rather share thrilling research for a few minutes per day over several weeks, with a global digital meeting on 9 November.

ITU 2020 Global CyberDrill

The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) improves a States’ cybersecurity readiness, protection, and incident response capabilities by conducting CyberDrills at the regional and international levels. A CyberDrill is an annual event during which cyber-attacks, information security incidents, or other types of disruptions are simulated in order to test an organization’s cyber capabilities, from being able to detect a security incident to the ability to respond appropriately and minimize any related impact. Through a CyberDrill, participants are able to validate policies, plans, procedures, processes, and capabilities that enable preparation, prevention, response, recovery, and continuity of operations.
To date, the ITU has organized more than 29 CyberDrill events around the world to enhance cybersecurity capacity and capabilities through regional collaboration and cooperation.

EU Cyber Forum

Over the past years, cyber-related policy issues have become a permanent feature on the meeting agendas of European leaders with third countries. With the increased focus on digital transition and the relevance of the EU’s cyber and digital policies in support of the Geopolitical Commission, the EU’s diplomatic, economic and political actions attract international attention and scrutiny. As stated in the Commission Work Programme, a strong EU voice expressing our commitment to upholding, updating and upgrading the rules-based global order requires a more focused, open and proactive approach, including in our global engagements on cyber and digital issues.

To support these objectives and to deepen the EU’s global engagement with various stakeholder communities and our strategic partners around the world, the European Union Institute for Security Studies (EUISS) and partners are organising the EU Cyber Forum (14-17 September 2020, Brussels) for the second consecutive year. Due to the COVID-19 related travel restrictions, this year’s conference will be a blended event combining a limited physical presence and online engagement.

The EU Cyber Forum is a platform for showcasing the European Union’s efforts in a broadly defined area of cyber and digital policies, while at the same time allowing for the exchange of best practices between participating countries. Organised in cooperation with the European External Action Service, the European Commission, the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity – ENISA, and the European Cybercrime Centre at Europol, the first edition of the Forum brought together over 150 individuals representing around 60 countries and different stakeholder communities.

Cybersec Global 2020

From the very beginning of humankind history, with each new innovation also came new perils. Every technology, next to its primary goal of improving the well-being of societies, also has another side, enabling the adversarial and malicious activities. So does one of the greatest inventions of the last century that completely transformed our lives – the Internet, the supreme example of digital technologies which in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic are now rapidly moving us to the new fully digital world – our so-called new normal.

The new digital world should be therefore created with responsibility and the willingness to learn and develop a common understanding of what it takes to keep using a given technology for good. The next edition of the CYBEREC Forum, with its leitmotif Together Against Adversarial Internet, will be a platform to discuss the way forward in building cybersecurity in the new digital reality. Together, as a CYBERSEC community, we can prove that 2020 will also be a year when cybersecurity becomes a key priority on the political and strategic agendas of organisations and countries.

The Fifth International Conference on Cyber-Technologies and Cyber-Systems CYBER 2020

Onsite and Online Options: In order to accommodate a large number of situations, we are offering the option for either physical presence or virtual participation.

The increased size and complexity of the communications and the networking infrastructures are making it difficult the investigation of the resiliency, security assessment, safety and crimes. Mobility, anonymity, counterfeiting, are characteristics that add more complexity in Internet of Things and Cloud-based solutions. Cyber-physical systems exhibit a strong link between the computational and physical elements. Techniques for cyber resilience, cyber security, protecting the cyber infrastructure, cyber forensic and cyber crimes have been developed and deployed. Some of new solutions are nature-inspired and social-inspired leading to self-secure and self-defending systems. Despite the achievements, security and privacy, disaster management, social forensics, and anomalies/crimes detection are challenges within cyber-systems.

CYBER 2020, The Fifth International Conference on Advances in Cyber-Technologies and Cyber-Systems, continues the inaugural event covering many aspects related to cyber-systems and cyber-technologies considering the issues mentioned above and potential solutions. It is also intended to illustrate appropriate current academic and industry cyber-system projects, prototypes, and deployed products and services.

We solicit both academic, research, and industrial contributions. We welcome technical papers presenting research and practical results, position papers addressing the pros and cons of specific proposals, such as those being discussed in the standard fora or in industry consortia, survey papers addressing the key problems and solutions on any of the above topics short papers on work in progress, and panel proposals.

Industrial presentations are not subject to the format and content constraints of regular submissions. We expect short and long presentations that express industrial position and status.

Tutorials on specific related topics and panels on challenging areas are encouraged.

The topics suggested by the conference can be discussed in term of concepts, state of the art, research, standards, implementations, running experiments, applications, and industrial case studies. Authors are invited to submit complete unpublished papers, which are not under review in any other conference or journal in the following, but not limited to, topic areas.

ENISA Annual Privacy Forum

The value of personal data in the online world has significantly increased over the last years as electronic products, services and processes have permeated every fold of everyday life. Limitations in the transparency, the functionality and interconnectivity of online and communication services increases the risk of having personal data processed out of control of any accountable person or organization or simply becoming exposed to all sorts of privacy threats.

The EU legal framework on personal data protection is key in an effort to better control the processing of personal data while ensuring an adequate level of protection. Even the best legislative efforts cannot keep up to speed with the pace of innovative technology and business models that challenge the way personal data is processed and privacy is protected across the EU and beyond; therefore, examining what is at stake and where threats thereto originate from becomes of paramount importance.

Against this background, ENISA, DG CONNECT and the Católica University of Portugal, Lisbon School of Law are organizing the Annual Privacy Forum (APF) 2020.

Due to the evolving COVID-19 situation, the organizers have unanimously decided to postpone the organization of the APF for October 2020.

The exact dates will be communicated in due time, once the organizers have more information on how the overall situation evolves.
