ENISA is proud to be working with eema, TeleTrusT, NASK (the Polish
research and development organization and leading Polish data networks
operator) and the German Federal Ministry of the Inte rior as well as
the German Federal Offce for Information Security for this year's 9th
annual Information Security Solutions Europe Confer ence. The aimof the
ISSE has always been to support the developmentof a European information
security culture and especially a cross border framework for trustworthy
IT applications for citizens, industry and administration. ENISA is
committed to these goals. In our work we assist and advise the European
Commission, Member States as well as business community on network and
information security as well as on legislative requirements, and we are
delighted to support the ISSE again this year. The security of
communication networks and information systems is of increasing concern.
In order to face today's complex information security challenges it is
clear that working collaboratively with one another is the key to
generating new strategies to address these problems. It has been an
exciting opportunity to facilitate this collaboration at the ISSE 2007,
pulling together the wealth of industry knowledge, information and
research that we hold in Europe, as well as across the globe. The
success of this event in generating ideas and frank, lively debate
around the complex topic of IT security is due also to the independent,
varied nature of the programme, which was selected by world wide
specialists in the feld.
