The creation of a participative stakeholders’ community is a major objective in the ACDC project and is in line with the overall project’s approach based on fostering a wider level of information sharing and, therefore, a faster and more effective communication between stakeholders active in the cyber security area with the final aim to fighting botnets across Europe.
The role of the ACDC community portal is to ease access to the different activities that can be shared by ACDC community members, with a view to improving the detection, mitigation and prevention of botnets across Europe.
Improving the detection
Improving the detection of botnets can be achieved by increasing the speed at which a botnet is detected;
Improving the prevention
The detection of botnets will only contribute to improve the prevention if information is sent as fast as possible on the one hand to the ISPs and on the other hand to users of fixed and mobile devices to avoid the creation / spreading of the botnet;
Improving the mitigation
Improving the mitigation is another aspect to which ACDC aims to contribute, through new tools and services.
