Obiettivo del progetto (Objective)
The aim of the coordination action FORWARD is to promotencollaboration and partnership between researchers from academia and industry involved in the protection of ICT infrastructures against cyber-threats such as malicious code (viruses, botnets, and spyware), spam, and phishing. The goal is to identify, network, and coordinate the multiple research efforts that are underway in these areas and leveraging these efforts with other activities to build secure and trusted ICT systems and infrastructures.nnThe main objectives of this project are to:nn- Establish working groups to discuss best practices, progress and priorities, setting the research agendas to be pursued in Europe and identify possible new research areas and threats that need to be address.nn- Set up an online platform for regularly assessing and reviewing the evolution of the threat landscape and the state of the art in threat detection and prevention techniques.nn- Organize workshops with relevant groups of experts from industry and academia but also with policy makers for discussing and presenting the emerging threat landscape, the ongoing research in answer to these threats, and recommended actions to be taken in partnership with industry and governments.nn- Leverage the findings of individual working groups to describe scenarios in which adversaries use a combination of attacks to threaten the security and disrupt the lives of the people in the European Union.nnThe core consortium consists of six leading academic institutions that are well recognized for their broad expertise in different areas of systems security and ICT threat defense. To ensure industrial participation, this core consortium is complemented by an industrial board that provides a platform for players from industry to contribute to the project. For this board, we won representatives of twelve companies that endorse FORWARD and its goals, as well as assert their willingness to serve on the industrial board.
