The German Foundation for Peace Research has now published the final report on the EuRepoC predecessor project "Security through Obfuscation: Why Governments Use Proxies in Cyber Conflicts" at Heidelberg University. In the report, Sebastian Harnisch and Kerstin Zettl-Schabath present the HD-CY.CON cyberconflict dataset and shed light on autocratic and democratic proxy use in cyberspace.

Our monthly briefings summarise the key trends, dynamics, and findings on cyber incidents as recorded by EuRepoC in a given month. The May 2023 briefing is available here. The German edition is published in collaboration with the Tagesspiegel Cybersecurity Background, accessible here.

Annegret Bendiek and Jakob Bund published a piece on European cyber defence and the necessity of clearly communicated normative principles in order to move from a reactive to an active approach.
