Cyber Security Legal Aspects

Training Day Details

Training objectives

“Legal Aspects of Cyber Defence” is a one-day seminar held prior to the “Cyber Conflict Legal & Policy Conference” in order to offer a compact introduction to issues such as cyber incidents, cyber crime and cyber warfare. The training aims to complement the debate on a multidisciplinary approach to cyber conflict management by proposing lectures of international professionals addressing various fundamental interrelated legal aspects of cyber security and cyber defence. The lectures and following discussions serve as both an informative presentation of the growingly complex legal issues of cyber defence for independent audience and a perfect kick-off for the conference attendees.   

Training audience

The training program is designed to precede the Cyber Conflict Legal & Policy Conference and thus targeted to professionals interested in IT law, cyber security and cyber defence. The training is also open to independent audience not taking part of the conference.
