EAB.Cyber
The successful implementation of CSDP is increasingly dependent on the availability of, and access to, a secure cyberspace. Moving in that direction, the 28 Member States represented in the Steering Committee, tasked the Head of ESDC with undertaking all necessary steps to establish a Cyber Education, Training, Evaluation and Exercise (ETEE) Platform. The overall aim of the platform is to address cyber security and defence training among the civilian and military personnel and include CSDP requirements in all respective training.
The platform will deal with all domains of cybersecurity, such as Cyber Crime, Network Information Security, Cyber Defence and External Relations. This will be accomplished through synergies and by establishing the necessary harmonization and standardization in Cyber related training. Currently ESDC works in close cooperation with key stakeholders, namely EDA, EUROPOL, CEPOL, ECTEG, ENISA, CERT-EU and the EU Hybrid Centre of Excellence, while at the same time, inviting external partners to contribute with their expertise on the field.
