Journalists from the local Cretan media attended a press conference at ENISA on 3rd April 2012.
The Agency called the conference to give the media and local community a clear picture of ENISA’s outlook on the current negotiations regarding its Mandate. Issues such as the Official Seat of the Agency (Heraklion), the Athens bureau and ENISA’s potential new tasks were covered.
The Agency’s Executive Director, Professor Udo Helmbrecht, also took the opportunity to highlight ENISA’s cooperation with the local community:
"ENISA is today well recognized and successful in the European IT community. We appreciate the support of our host country, and locally, ENISA will keep on contributing to the success of this European Region. The key issue is for ENISA to concentrate on doing its job of protecting network and information security for all the citizens, in Crete, Greece, and throughout Europe.”
Upcoming events are being finalised between the Agency, Heraklion City Council, the Region of Crete and Europe Direct. These include the celebrations around Europe Day on 9th May.
