The fact than more and more Cyber-Physical or IoT systems are integrated in vehicle fleets, coupled with the growing connectivity of these devices, poses a higher risk of cyber attacks, due to the increased attack surface.

Cybersec4Europe project has been quite influential as a pilot of the Cyber Competence Network, contributing to a wide and rich community of cybersecurity stakeholders.

Complex applications, which include microservices, computationally intensive batch jobs, and sophisticated interaction with the external environment, demand for heterogeneous computational infrastructures that range from cloud to HPC and edge computing.
