VCCC

In accordance with recommendations of the CEPS Task Force on "Critical Infrastructure Protection in the EU" [CEPS11], CIPRNet envisions the creation of a sustainable and distributed Virtual Centre of Competence and expertise in See critical infrastructure protection
[Click for more information]CIP (VCCC). By implementing the CIPRNet agenda and by combining and integrating the excellence in See critical infrastructure protection
[Click for more information]CIP knowledge, expertise, experiences and technology of the partners, CIPRNet will create the tangible VCCC already during the project term. The VCCC serves as the foundation of a long-lasting network of facilities providing enduring support from research to See critical infrastructure
[Click for more information]CI stakeholders in EU Member States. This network of facilities has the working title European Infrastructures Simulation and Analysis Centre
[Click for more information]EISAC (European Infrastructures See computer simulation.
[Click for more information]Simulation and Analysis Centre). A European headquarters shall foster standardisation of technology, organise cross-border collaboration, and provide support at EU level.

A facility like European Infrastructures Simulation and Analysis Centre
[Click for more information]EISAC would contribute to catching up with the leading world-class facilities like NISAC in the US and CIPMA in Australia. Alike NISAC and CIPMA, the VCCC and later European Infrastructures Simulation and Analysis Centre
