Mr. Olli Ruutu:

This is an initiative about networking military emergency teams of member states. We had our first edition of the conference last autumn. The idea is to continue on a yearly basis. It is an example of collaboration and co-operation between responsible cyber defence authorities in member states and of increasing co-operation in the area of cyber defence and bringing people together in that regard. I wanted to highlight it because, by comparison with civilian cyber operations, there is progress to be made on active cyber defence co-operation. This is an example of a concrete step forward in that area.
