What is the biggest problem facing Europe in terms of network security?
I think the big problem here is determining exactly how all the infrastructures in Europe are connected, which would mean working together with the service providers and other stakeholders. We would need data from all EU members that we could look at to provide a resistant network with a capable early warning system that would be used to keep the EU government up and running. As a comparison, consider electricity companies – they know what’s happening on their electricity grids in real time – what areas have gone down and what they need to do to restore power. We depend on electricity and it is needed around the clock. I think a similar system is needed for the internet in Europe, but we need to exchange information at all levels involving all the stakeholders in European network security.
