European Internet Resilience
The House of Lords has now published its report on the EC Communication on Protecting Europe Against Large Scale Cyber-Attacks. The conclusions seem broadly to agree with the evidence that Chris Gibson (FIRST) and I presented to them in November: that disruption to the Internet (whether deliberate, accidental or environmental) is something that needs to be taken seriously; that the UK is relatively well-placed in this respect; that there is a role at European level for encouraging the adoption of good practice; and that ENISA (the European Network and Information Security Agency) should be provided with adequate resources to play a role in this.
Chapter 2 of the report also provides a useful summary of the range of disruptive incidents that can occur and is worth reading even if you aren't interested in the other policy and political stuff.
