CERIS Annual event on research for fighting crime and terrorism: An exploration into cross-cutting issues:

1) online harms 

2) involvement of practitioners in security research

DG HOME is organising this two-day annual event with the aim of facilitating and stimulating the discussion and exchanges among security research practitioners, policy makers, researchers, civil society and industry on cross-cutting topics that have a broad and horizontal impact on research and innovation in this domain.

The first day of this event will be dedicated to the discussion on online harms, from exploring their current spectrum to analysing emerging and future techniques and technologies related to online harms. During this day, we will also discuss how the AI Act will affect the fight against online crimes.

The second day of the event will look at understanding which possible challenges our practitioners (police authorities, NGOs/CSOs and forensic institutes) face regarding their participation in security research consortia, and discuss good and bad practices in this regard.

The goal of the two-day event is to facilitate the sharing of experiences and research findings to identify current achievements, possible synergies, and inspire each other while strengthening collaboration on European level.

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.
