The European Network and Information Security Agency (ENISA) and the Institute of Computer Science (ICS) of the Foundation for Research and Technology - Hellas (FORTH) welcome you to the jointly organised 2nd ENISA-FORTH Summer School on Network and Information Security (NIS'09).
Following the success of NIS'08, this year’s summer school will take place in Crete, Greece, between the 14th and the 18th of September 2009, with the special theme "Privacy and Trust in a Networked World".
An exciting programme is being prepared, where invited lecturers will cover a range of topics extending beyond pure technological areas towards economic, policy, and legal issues.
Network and Information Security (NIS) has emerged as a fundamental aspect of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and its widespread adoption for improving productivity, learning, and leisure.
While creating new opportunities for growth in European economy and for improving quality of life for its citizens, constant advances in ICT pose new challenges to NIS, requiring a high-level of alertness, solid understanding of technology and trends, and continuous adjustment of strategic options.
Therefore, raising awareness and understanding on the issues involved is of paramount importance. Recognising the importance of NIS and the need for raising awareness, ENISA and FORTH have taken the initiative to create this Summer School.
The Summer School aims to provide a forum for experts in Information Security, policy makers from EU Member States and EU Institutions, decision makers from the industry, as well as members of the research and academic community, for interacting on cutting-edge and interesting topics in Network and Information Security.
