"Everything is connected"
ENISA has launched its new corporate video clip. This six-minutes movie describes the role of ENISA in a world where "everything is connected" both privately and professionaly. Communication technology connects us to family, friends, banks, and other private and e-government services we all rely on. But the Internet is under constant threat, from crime, attacks and accidents. Spamhaus, Stuxnet, Flamer, High Roller to name a few of the sophisticated cyber-attacks that took place the last 3 years.
It is the European Union Agency ENISA’s job to work with prevention at EU levels in the field of cyber security. ENISA is working with governments, regulators and industry to assess risks and identify practical solutions to keep business, citizens and economy secure.
This way, we support the smooth functioning of Europe’s internal market.

The European Cyber Security Month (ECSM) 2013 team is inviting public and private sector organisations concerned with Network and Information Security to get involved in this year’s October programme, in line with the EU Cybersecurity Strategy.
Following up on the successful ECSM pilot held in October 2012, the call for expression of interest is now open.
We kindly invite you to provide any information for activities you planned in your country such as TV and radio campaigns, social media campaigns, competitions/quizzes with prizes, news articles, conferences, student fairs, road-shows, information sessions by Computer Emergency Response Teams (CERTs), "round table" discussion sessions, etc. And of course, we’d be very pleased to hear any new ideas that could be included in this year calendar.

European Commission - Press Release - MEMO Brussels, 16 April 2013 European Commission
The European Commission welcomes the vote of the European Parliament in a plenary session today to extend the mandate of the European Network and Information Security Agency (ENISA).
Today's vote (626 for, 45 against) is the conclusion of lengthy political discussions between Council and the European Parliament. A political agreement was reached at the end of January 2013, and EU Ministers formally endorsed the Regulation on 8 February. The new Regulation (seeMEMO/10/459) grants ENISA a new 7 year mandate.
This is particularly significant given the important role the agency will play in the implementation of the EU Cybersecurity Strategy adopted by the European Commission in January (see IP/13/94).
ENISA will retain its seat in Heraklion, Crete, but will also have a branch office in Athens which brings it closer to its stakeholders and makes the agency more efficient.
European Commission Vice-President Neelie Kroes said: "Today's vote offers a new start for a new Enisa: with expanded tasks, a more agile and efficient organization and governance. ===> This will help secure European networks and information systems, in line with our cybersecurity strategy." <===

EU cyber security agency, ENISA, has today issued an information Flash Note, ‘Cyber attacks – a new edge for old weapons’ that analyses and tracks recent cyber attacks.

Cyber-Security should get taken much more serious by Education and by teachers and taught in schools up from the early age! It is NOT difficult and a culture of aware Digital-Citizen needs to get build up!
