CYBERSEC Brussels Leaders’ Foresight
YBERSEC Brussels Leaders’ Foresight is an exclusive, high-level meeting that aims to enhance European cybersecurity preparedness and foster a competitive IT industry. The central topics of discussions will reflect a motion to take deep cybersecurity actions which will secure the very core aspects of the digital world - digital DNA as we call it. It is a task for the entire transatlantic community, like-minded countries, NATO and the new European Commission and European Parliament in their pursuit of digital strategic autonomy as well as for many national governments.
CYBERSEC Brussels will contribute to that endeavour by bringing closer the new digital agenda of the European Commission and national approaches of the member states.

WACCO 2020: 2nd Workshop on Attackers and Cyber-Crime Operations
The emergence and commoditization of cyber-criminal activities calls for new empirical methods, measures, and technologies to quantify and understand offender operations across all forms of cyber-crime: from malware engineering and attack delivery, to running underground operations trading illegal goods such as drugs and illegal pornography, to spreading disinformation and planning (cyber-)terrorism operations. Without appropriate scientific measures of cyber-offender and attacker operations, capabilities, and resources, it remains impossible to derive sound policies, strategies and technologies that appropriately address realistic and evidence-based attacker and offender models.
The 2nd Workshop on Attackers and Cyber-Crime Operations (WACCO 2020) aims to provide a venue for research and discussion on cyber-criminal activities. WACCO 2020 is co-located with the 5th IEEE European Symposium on Security and Privacy (EuroS&P 2020) in Genoa, Italy on June 15, 2020.

The ICT4D Non-Conference 2020
The ICT4D Non-Conference is a unique event that brings together government officials, companies, academics and civil society to discuss the most important questions around ICT4D through a range of activities. There will be no boring paper presentations or ministerial statements! Rather, you will have an opportunity to spend time discussing what you want, and how you want, with people who have real knowledge about ensuring safe inclusive digital technology for all.
As a result of the Covid-19 pandemic we have taken the wise, but sad, decision today (8th May 2020) to postpone our face-to-face non-conference that was scheduled to take place from 15th-17th September this year. However, we intend to run a virtual gathering on these original dates when all poster and demo presenters can come together to share and discuss their ideas and experiences. Further details of this will be announced in due course. All accepted demo and poster presenters have been invited to contribute to this virtual gathering.
