This thematic workshop of the Community for European Research and Innovation for Security (CERIS) aims at discussing missing persons.

In an era of rapid technological advancement, innovative tools such as artificial intelligence, biometric databases, and real-time data-sharing platforms can significantly enhance the ability of law enforcement and other relevant actors to track and identify missing persons more efficiently. This workshop aims to explore the complexities of the missing persons phenomenon, highlight the importance of multi-agency collaboration, and examine the role of research and innovation and the exploitation of existing and emerging technologies in strengthening search and recovery efforts.

ROOT - Rolling Out OSNMA for the secure synchronization of Telecom networks

The ROOT project obtained funding under Horizon 2020 topic ‘EGNSS applications fostering societal resilience and protecting the environment’. The project, which ran from November 2020 to July 2022,  aimed to demonstrate the benefit of Galileo OSNMA signal to increase the robustness of critical telecom infrastructures.

The Flanders-based company Septentrio contributed substantially to completing this objective together with the other ROOT partners. The results of the project partially close a gap in the security of telecommunication networks dependent on satellite-derived time, with indirect benefits in curbing illegal attempts to disrupt network services.
