Security, Defence Technologies, Critical Infrastructure & Resilience
How quickly Europe becomes capable of defending itself and, above all, resilient across the board is also a technological question. EUREL firmly believes that the civil security of our societies and the defensive response capabilities of EU countries and their friends/partners today do not depend solely on their armed and security forces. Engineers also contribute to this by designing more robust systems, reducing technological dependencies, and making digital and physical infrastructures more resilient.
