About the CYBERUNITY Project
About the CYBERUNITY Project
CYBERUNITY is a project launched by the European Commission with a primary focus on cybersecurity. Its main goal is to build an interoperable community of Cyber Ranges in Europe by initially bringing together the cyber ranges owned and operated by the partners in the consortium. This initiative aims to develop open interoperability specifications and provide the first interoperable cyber range infrastructure. Additionally, CYBERUNITY will deploy a secure framework that enables cross-organization and cross-border integrated cyber range services, with capabilities demonstrated through several cross-border scenarios involving systems in critical sectors. The project is expected to benefit about 2000 cyber defenders from all regions of Europe, including those with less access to unified cyber range facilities.
The Vision oh the CYBERUNITY Project
Our project envisions making Europe a world leader in cybersecurity by fostering a thriving community of cybersecurity experts, researchers, and professionals. Through the development of the concept of “Cyber-Range-as-a-Service” (CRaaS) and the creation of the first overarching Knowledge Repository for cyber ranges, CYBERUNITY aims to set a benchmark for secure, trustworthy, and privacy-compliant cyber range services. The project seeks to build and expand an interoperable cyber range community, contributing to Europe’s leadership in cybersecurity through innovative specifications, infrastructure, and collaborative efforts across borders.
