Topics:
- Digital Security and privacy for citizens and Small and Medium Enterprises and Micro Enterprises
- Digital security, privacy, data protection and accountability in critical sectors
TOPIC: Digital Security and privacy for citizens and Small and Medium Enterprises and Micro Enterprises
Types of action: IA Innovation action
This topic aims to protect freedom, security and privacy by ensuring personal data protection of the citizens in Europe and avoiding personal data breach that may facilitate abuse by third parties. There is a need for increased citizens’ capacity to modulate the level and accuracy of the monitoring tools involved in their digital activities and configure their own security, privacy and personal data protection settings and controls across these services.
SMEs and MEs (Micro Enterprises) are more vulnerable to cyber-attacks and an easy target because the can only allocate limited technical and human resources. However, they have a significant economic role in the EU, so the research to innovation should support them in a complex and fast-evolving field.
