Since 2014, October has been declared the EUROPEAN CYBER SECURITY MONTH. A topic more relevant than ever, as evidenced by recent statements made by President Obama and even by the head of the cyber defense of the French army, Armand Coustilliere. After the latest terrorist attacks, such as the once occurred on January 7, 2015 in Paris, after which some websites of French media remained out of order for some hours. The concerns are focused not only on the web sever and databases but also the ICT infrastructure in their entirety, which makes control systems of communications - train, road and air traffic - much more vulnerable, with unpredictable consequences for governments around the world. With regard to this issue of the defense of transport infrastructure by the decision support system tool, is dedicated the ATTACS Project: http://www.attacs.eu


Prepared by the ATTACS Project the first draft of causal loop diagram for transport systems.

ATTACS project takes a holistic view of the urban environment to assess the possible effects, both immediately and in the long run, for the effects that a transportation system close-down would have in that urban environment. The draft of the CLD (Causal Loop Diagram) describes a set of nodes that represent variables linked together showing the possible economic impact caused by the blockade of the transport system. More details at: http://www.attacs.eu


It was held in Rome Session of the Group for the construction of the model GMB (Group Model Building) under the European project ATTACS.

A session of GMB was held in Rome on June 9, 2015. It is a support for stakeholders working with a modeling team to solve a problem targeted in a complex system. The session was attended by international experts on the protection of critical infrastructure and experts on methodology of information. There were also representatives of public and private entities related to transportation systems which also represent the "end-users" of the ATTACS project.

The meeting produced the validation of the first draft of CLD (Casual Loop Diagram) to identify the economic impacts as a result of a terrorist attack and the validation and improvement of the current map.

New research from Unisys Corporation showed alarming gaps in the security of the ICT infrastructure. Almost 70 percent of critical infrastructure providers have been violated during 2014. This has meant the loss of confidential information or the interruption of services. The European Union is developing its strategic policy with regard to the European Programme for critical infrastructure protection ("EPCIP") considering measures that will improve the level of protection of certain infrastructures (energy, transport and finance) against external threats: http://ec.europa.eu/energy/en/topics/infrastructure/protection-critical-infrastructure

On the subject of transport it is centered ATTACS project which aims the creation of a Decision Support System tool (DSS) for the protection of the transport sector. The tool will allow the transport operators and authorities to assess the economic and social impacts of a forced closure of a part (or all) of a transport system.


Life Programme - Caretta Calabria project: it is opened a new Info Desk at the "Costa dei Gelsomini (Calabria Region) with the aim of encouraging the participation of fishermen and other stakeholders for the conservation of the most important populations of sea turtle Caretta caretta nesting in Italy, along the Ionian coast of Calabria.
