EU Workshop on Strategies and Services for Enhanced Disruption Resilience and Cooperation in Europe
The ENDURANCE project is pleased to invite you to take part in its workshop focusing on Strategies and Services for Enhanced Disruption Resilience and Cooperation in Europe.
Cross-sector and cross-border collaboration between Critical Infrastructure operators across Europe is important to ensure an adequate level of resilience and business continuity. The integration of major European directives like CER, NIS-2, and DORA into EU member states reflects a key objective: ensuring an adequate level of resilience throughout European society
Understanding the impact of Critical Infrastructure resilience does not stop at national borders. It is therefore necessary to understand the roles, processes and experiences with respect to cross-border cooperation between Critical Infrastructure providers. This European level workshop will facilitate discussions aimed at supporting cross-border cooperation in order to exchange best practices, discuss common problems and find ways for Critical Infrastructure operators to better support each other in the event of a crisis.
The outcome of the discussions will help to understand the current operating environment for cross-border cooperation to improve the level of resilience of Critical Infrastructure sectors, what is still missing, and how we can fill this gap.
The workshop will also be an excellent opportunity for the ENDURANCE project partners to inform a wider community of experts about the planned steps and where you can help the project to prepare a realistic assessment of existing resilience levels in different EU target environments.
- Security experts in all security domains.
- Stakeholders and operators from other Critical Infrastructure organisations.
- Members of associated Critical Infrastructure projects and other security-related projects and networks.
- Members of national and international law enforcement and security agencies.
- Members of national and international standardisation organisations.
