The Canvas Project

This international and interdisciplinary workshop is part of a series of events organized by the Horizon 2020 project CANVAS. The goal of CANVAS is to inform deciders and policymakers about issues at the intersection of ethics and cybersecurity by creating briefing packages, whitepapers, and materials for teaching (MOOC, reference curriculum, and a book). Our event brings together scholars and practitioners. This includes actors who need protection for themselves or for their organization as well as those who have to deal with the consequences of untraceability and online anonymity.
