Programmes Horizon Europe HorizonEU L+F Digital Europe DefenceEthics and security play an important role in applications for projects under Horizon Europe, Digital Europe and the EU Defence Fund.
Consortia submitting proposals are expected to self-reflect on ethics issues, followed by screenings and follow-ups by the European Commission.

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.
