We spoke with the COcyber Batch #2 Ambassadors to reflect on their journey and gather their insights on Europe’s cybersecurity future. Dr. Vilius Benetis brings deep expertise in cybersecurity capacity building and incident response, and values the ambassadorship for advancing ecosystem-based approaches that strengthen cyber resilience through trust, cooperation, and outcomes-driven collaboration.

The COcyber Ambassador Programme has welcomed its first cohort, comprising six cybersecurity professionals from across Europe, to enhance digital resilience through cross-sector collaboration. These ambassadors leverage their diverse expertise to bridge gaps between civilian and defense cybersecurity communities, fostering a more coordinated and robust approach to Europe's cybersecurity challenges.
