" Innovative Risk and Security Management solutions for protecting European Ports and their Supply Chains "
This talk discusses risk management approaches in port information systems . Starting from the fact that ports have recently been the targets of various attacks , we propose to take a holistic view on the ports and their supply chains . Three main questions will be tackled : How can we effectively estimate risks in port supply chains ? How can we enhance the security and resilience of the ports ’ critical infrastructures ? Are there appropriate efficient and effective tools that provide risk and security management ? The responses to these questions are provided through use cases that have been evaluated in various European funded projects .
