European Cyber Security Month
The European Cybersecurity Month (ECSM) is the EU’s annual campaign dedicated to promoting cybersecurity among citizens and organisations, and to providing up-to-date online security information through awareness raising and sharing of good practices. Each year, for the entire month of October, hundreds of activities take place across Europe, including conferences, workshops, trainings, webinars, presentations and more, to promote digital security and cyber hygiene.
The EU Agency for Cybersecurity coordinates the organisation of the ECSM campaign by acting as a “hub” for all participating Member States and EU Institutions, and by providing expert suggestions, generating synergies and promoting common messaging among EU citizens, businesses and public administration. The Agency also publishes new materials and provides expert advice on different cybersecurity topics for Member States’ audiences.
The main objectives of the European CyberSecMonth are the following:
- Raise security awareness among a wide spectrum of addressees as defined in the EU Cyber Security Strategy.
- Spread awareness about NIS Directive and its importance.
- Promote rules of safer use of the Internet for all users.
- Involve all important entities in raising security awareness.
- Increase a media interest in raising security awareness across and outside Europe as well.
- Enhance interest in cyber security topic through political and media coordination.
Hlavným odkazom ECSM je: The motto of the campaign is: Cyber Security is a Shared Responsibility!

How Projects Addressing AI in Industry Are Created 2025 19 Nov - Umelá inteligencia sa stáva neoddeliteľnou súčasťou európskeho priemyslu aj výskumu a zásadne mení spôsob, akým vznikajú inovatívne projekty. Európska komisia preto prichádza s dvomi novými AI stratégiami – jednou zameranou na aplikovanie umelej inteligencie v kľúčových priemyselných sektoroch a druhou na vedecké využitie AI. Tieto iniciatívy prinášajú nové investičné a projektové príležitosti aj pre slovenské inštitúcie a firmy, najmä prostredníctvom programu Horizont Európa.
Online Lecture: HPC & AI – Competition or Collaboration? 7 Nov - On 26 November 2025 at 10:00, we are hosting a special online lecture dedicated to the rapidly evolving topic of the interplay between high-performance computing (HPC) and artificial intelligence (AI). Our guest will be Erwin Laure, one of the most prominent figures in the European HPC ecosystem.
Success story: The Future of Soil Hidden in Data 5 Nov - High-Performance Computing (HPC) offers researchers the ability to process enormous volumes of data and uncover connections that would otherwise remain hidden. Today, it is no longer just a tool for technical disciplines – it is increasingly valuable in social and environmental research as well. A great example is a project that harnessed the power of HPC to gain deeper insight into the relationship between humans, soil, and the landscape.
