PD Dr. Matthias C. Kettemann moderates the Online Expert Exchange of
German Institute for International and Security Affairs – Stiftung Wissenschaft und Politik (SWP) and presents the new paper "
EU-Strategie zur Cybesicherheit: Desiderat Cyberdiplomatie" (in German).
With the new Cybersecurity Strategy from December 2020, the European Union (EU) seeks to prevent, deter and respond to cyber incidents in Europe. However, the Union leaves confidence- and security-building through EU cyber diplomacy towards third countries largely underexplored.
Against this backdrop, the panel will discuss how the EU can enhance its cyber diplomacy and what its transatlantic implications are.
Date: Tuesday, 9 March 2021, 10h00-11h15 (CET) .The invitation is personal.
Speakers:
Annegret Bendiek, Deputy Head of EU/Europe Division, SWP, Berlin
Agnieszka Wierzbicka, Policy Officer, Cyber Security, European External Action Service, Brussels
Pauline Massart, Director, CEIS-Avisa Partners, Brussels
Moderation:
