SecureGas First Project Workshop

09 Sep 2019

Securing the European Gas Network

As project coordinator of SecureGas we are glad to announce that the first project workshop will be hold on 10 September in Freiburg, Germany.

SecureGas has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under grant agreement No 833017 to ensure the security and resilience of the EU gas network.

In particular, the project aims at providing methodologies, tools and guidelines to secure existing and incoming installations and make them resilient to cyber-physical threats.

Three business cases, addressing relevant issues for the Gas sector and beyond (e.g. oil), have been identified so that to ensure the delivery of solutions and services in line with clear needs and requirements, focused on:

• risk-based security asset management of gas transmission and distribution networks;
• impacts (economic, environmental and social) and cascading effects of cyber-physical attacks on interdependent and interconnected European Gas grids;
• integrity and security, through the operationalization of resilience guidelines, of strategic installations across the EU Gas network

The Project Workshop aims at confirming end-user requirements identified by the project and identifying missed end-user requirements, validating a list of pre-defined technical requirements and getting inputs for the definition of thee business case scenarios.
