Many thanks to those of you who have provided input by filling-in the roadmap questionnaire!

We have decided to extend the deadline until next Friday, the 18th of December, to give more of you time to contribute, and prioritize the existing SPARTA SRI roadmap challenges via the questionnaire.

Dear SPARTA Partners,

The WP3 Roadmap Committee is actively preparing the release of the SPARTA SRI Roadmap V2. In this respect, the European Commission is interested in understanding which challenges from the SPARTA roadmap are of higher priority for strengthening the digital sovereignty of Europe in cybersecurity. In addition, the European Commission is curious which challenges are more critical considering the recent rapid technological adoptions enforced by the Corona pandemic.

The SPARTA roadmap is an evolving document and already contains a rich collection of cybersecurity challenges. So far we have added challenges in no particular order and independent of their size and urgency. As part of the roadmap process, we want all partners to give their view on how we should prioritize these challenges with respect to digital sovereignty and the Corona pandemic.

To do so, we have provided an online questionnaire to be filled-in: https://www.cybersecurityosservatorio.it/Services/sparta_roadmap_grading.jsp?lang=en

The questionnaire has three parts: Emerging Challenges, Education and Certification, and The SPARTA Programs. In each section, we ask you to give a priority from 1 (low) to 5 (high) to the challenges with respect to digital sovereignty and Corona, and to provide a (brief) explanation for your choice. Once you land on the questionnaire's homepage, you can either click on the "Anonymous Mode" checkbox to start a non-authenticated questionnaire session, or create a new account on the platform and submit the input while logged-in. If you opt for "Anonymous Mode", please save the hash of the new session, as it allows you to continue filling at a later point the questionnaire session that you started.

Please provide your input to the questionnaire by the 11th of December (Friday). Your contribution will be highly appreciated!

All the best,
Marius in the name of the Spartan Roadmap Committee
