Member SocietiesLSI SIN Activities and Publications
To fulfil its mission CEPIS LSI currently works or plans to work in three special activity areas (beyond the general activities). Apart from this, CEPIS LSI knows from experience that in its area, important and sometimes controversial issues often come up very quickly and require quick reaction. Therefore in all areas, unforeseen actions may be needed and may turn out to be more important than planned activities.
Activity Area 0: General Activities
CEPIS LSI is currently maintaining a members list, which is used to discuss upcoming aspects within LSI, and a friends list,
where we distribute information to interested parties. In addition LSI
has semi-annual meetings to discuss and prepare work in its three
activity areas.
Activity Area 1: Statements
Statements on issues of IT-related legislation and IT security are a
professional service to the public that many members of CEPIS member societies expect from their societies. At the same time these
statements have served well in raising awareness about CEPIS and CEPIS
member organizations with European decision makers, media and the
professional community. Click here to view recently published statements and papers.
Activity Area 2: Providing expertise to politics and stakeholders
To intensify communication with European institutions, CEPIS
LSI aims to raise awareness with the European institutions and their
members. CEPIS LSI will also continue its activities with the European
Network and Information Security Agency (ENISA), which includes working
on the ENISA Management Board (of which the CEPIS LSI Chair is a
member) and related groups. Of special importance here is the
attendance to the non-formal meetings of the ENISA Management Board,
where strategic issues are discussed.
Activity Area 3: Contribute security knowledge to CEPIS education, training, and certification efforts CEPIS LSI SIN aims to continue contributing security advice to further improve the ECDL syllabus and will stay in contact with the ECDL. Also developing or collecting a special syllabus for ECDL or other education / certification efforts related to LSI issues could be possible. CEPIS LSI also looks forward to contributing to further CEPIS-related education, training, and certification efforts.
