“While tech companies are sinking billions into AI, there is little evidence of its effectiveness, indicating that this bubble may well burst. The technology itself, which relies on the unprecedented theft of copyrighted work and on the exploitation of a hidden global labour force that cleans, collects, curates, and edits the information that feeds these corporate machines, is at its core unethical.”
— Teresa Heffernan, Professor at Saint Mary’s University, Halifax

- Die Velo-routen sollen schön sein.

EUVD, la banca dati europea delle vulnerabilità: nasce il cuore cibernetico della sicurezza UE


Nel cuore della strategia europea per la cybersicurezza, nasce l’EUVD (EU Vulnerability Database), la prima banca dati ufficiale dell’Unione Europea per la gestione delle vulnerabilità informatiche. Un’infrastruttura cruciale, sviluppata e gestita dall’ENISA, che segna un passo deciso verso una sovranità digitale europea in materia di sicurezza ICT.

Cos’è l’EUVD?


Lanciato ufficialmente da ENISA, l’EUVD, accessibile tramite il seguente indirizzo web euvd.enisa.europa.eu/ è il primo sistema paneuropeo pensato per raccogliere, organizzare e condividere informazioni sulle vulnerabilità che affliggono software e sistemi digitali. L’obiettivo? Garantire che le vulnerabilità non passino inosservate, che siano gestite in modo trasparente e coordinato, e che le aziende, le autorità pubbliche e gli utenti europei possano contare su informazioni affidabili e aggiornate.

Un sistema simile esiste da tempo negli Stati Uniti — l’ NVD (National Vulnerability Database) — ma l’Europa finora non disponeva di una piattaforma autonoma. L’EUVD colma questo vuoto, fornendo identificatori europei (EUVD-ID), strumenti di notifica per i fornitori di software, e flussi di coordinamento con i ricercatori che scoprono falle di sicurezza.

Un tassello fondamentale della strategia europea


Il lancio dell’EUVD si inserisce all’interno di un quadro normativo sempre più stringente in tema di cybersicurezza:

CRA (Cyber Resilience Act): approvato dal Parlamento Europeo, impone a produttori e fornitori di software l’obbligo di segnalare vulnerabilità gravi entro 24 ore dalla scoperta. L’EUVD sarà il canale ufficiale attraverso cui inviare queste notifiche, con procedure standardizzate.

Direttiva NIS2: entrata in vigore nel 2023, la NIS2 estende gli obblighi di sicurezza a migliaia di aziende in settori critici (energia, sanità, finanza, digitale). Tra le novità principali: la gestione del rischio, la risposta agli incidenti e – appunto – la gestione proattiva delle vulnerabilità.

In questo contesto, l’EUVD diventa un hub strategico: non solo uno strumento tecnico, ma una piattaforma politica che rafforza l’autonomia digitale dell’Unione e la sua capacità di reagire alle minacce cibernetiche in modo coordinato.

Trasparenza, interoperabilità, sovranità


Uno degli elementi più innovativi del progetto è l’approccio interoperabile e trasparente: l’EUVD si integrerà con banche dati internazionali (come il sistema CVE/NVD), ma introdurrà anche identificatori propri per le vulnerabilità scoperte in Europa.

Questo permette ai ricercatori europei di non dipendere da enti esterni per la classificazione e la pubblicazione delle falle. Allo stesso tempo, stimola le aziende europee a prendere parte a un ecosistema regolato, dove la segnalazione responsabile (coordinated vulnerability disclosure) è parte integrante della compliance.

Una risorsa per tutti


L’EUVD non è pensato solo per gli esperti di sicurezza. ENISA ha costruito la piattaforma per essere utilizzabile da:

  • Ricercatori e hacker etici, che possono segnalare falle;
  • Aziende ICT, tenute per legge a notificare le vulnerabilità;
  • Autorità nazionali, che devono monitorare e rispondere agli incidenti;
  • Cittadini e media, che possono consultare la dashboard pubblica per informarsi su rischi noti.


Perché serve un database europeo delle vulnerabilità?


Negli ultimi anni, la gestione delle vulnerabilità è diventata un terreno strategico. Non è solo una questione tecnica: è una leva geopolitica. Affidarsi a banche dati extraeuropee – come l’NVD americana – significa cedere controllo su tempi, priorità e visibilità delle vulnerabilità che riguardano software utilizzati anche nell’UE.

L’EUVD permette all’Europa di:

  • Decidere cosa pubblicare e quando, tutelando gli interessi strategici;
  • Migliorare i tempi di risposta in caso di exploit attivi;
  • Standardizzare la gestione delle vulnerabilità nei 27 Stati membri;
  • Supportare i CERT nazionali e regionali in modo più rapido ed efficace.


Come funziona l’EUVD in pratica?


I fornitori di software che scoprono una vulnerabilità possono accedere al portale EUVD attraverso un login riservato. Una volta autenticati, hanno la possibilità di inserire tutti i dettagli tecnici della falla riscontrata: dalla descrizione del problema agli eventuali impatti, fino alle misure correttive già disponibili.

A seguito della segnalazione, il sistema assegna automaticamente un identificatore univoco, l’EUVD-ID, che funziona in modo analogo ai più noti codici CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures).

La vulnerabilità può essere gestita in forma privata, nel rispetto delle pratiche di disclosure responsabile, oppure resa immediatamente pubblica se già nota, sfruttata attivamente o considerata critica per la sicurezza collettiva.

Le autorità nazionali e i CERT europei (Computer Emergency Response Team) possono monitorare l’intero ciclo di vita della vulnerabilità attraverso dashboard interattive, seguendone l’evoluzione e coordinando eventuali risposte di emergenza.

Numeri attesi e scenari futuri


Secondo ENISA, oltre 10.000 vulnerabilità vengono scoperte ogni anno in prodotti software usati nell’UE. Con l’entrata in vigore del Cyber Resilience Act, ci si aspetta un forte aumento delle segnalazioni da parte dei produttori, anche di PMI europee finora escluse da questi circuiti.

L’EUVD sarà quindi una piattaforma dinamica, in continua evoluzione, con il potenziale di diventare uno dei riferimenti mondiali nella cybersecurity open data.

Conclusione


In un’epoca in cui la sicurezza informatica è diventata una questione di interesse nazionale e internazionale, l’EUVD rappresenta un pilastro della cybersicurezza europea. Un progetto che rafforza la fiducia nell’ecosistema digitale, promuove la trasparenza e difende i cittadini europei da un panorama di minacce sempre più sofisticato.

54 higher-ed organizations just issued a "Call to Reforge the Historic Compact Between Higher Education and the Federal Government."
acenet.edu/Documents/Statement…

"The longstanding partnership between the federal government and colleges and universities has made American higher education the envy of the world and an engine of national progress and prosperity. All Americans, whether they went to college or not, have benefited from this compact…The undersigned associations represent those colleges and universities and the communities they serve. On behalf of tens of millions of students, educators, researchers, and administrators nationwide, we oppose recent government actions that jeopardize this partnership…This balance is dangerously disrupted when billions of dollars in funding for education and competitively awarded research grants are held hostage for political reasons…Release of funds obligated to institutions should not be conditioned on which students universities admit, what kinds of academic programs they offer, and how they organize and oversee their faculty. Campuses should not be attacked for building communities that reflect their missions and the broad diversity of this country. Students and scholars should not fear deportation just for exercising their right to speak freely."

Russia delegation leader Medinsky made key statements: "We have taken note of the request for a meeting between the leaders of Russia and Ukraine. The negotiations have concluded, and we are generally satisfied. Russia and Ukraine will soon carry out a prisoner exchange based on the 1000-for-1000 formula. Both sides will present their vision of a potential ceasefire in detail, and negotiations will continue afterward."

The melting Arctic permafrost is unleashing a 'toxic' legacy

Rising temperatures could cause huge amounts of toxic materials to seep out of sealed-off mines into waterways

An abandoned gold mine in Canada is known as a "sleeping monster" by Indigenous locals – because it contains enough arsenic to kill 1.7 trillion people.

theweek.com/environment/the-me…

The legacy of mining waste is absolutely devastating for our environment.

in reply to Gerry McGovern

Canada has a terrible record on this because we are a 'rip and ship' nation where we dig things up and give it to clever foreigners who sells back expensive things. We never clean up our mess and just keep digging

Gerry McGovern reshared this.

@Robo105
The reason they left the toxic mess behind was that they had no idea how to get rid of the chemicals safely so they buried it in the permafrost hoping this day would never come.

@Pinchy63 Very true and tax payer dollars will have to be used to clean it up but at least the shareholders got above average returns

Unfortunately, it's the way with all mining. They always leave the toxic waste behind for future generations to clean up.

!europe@feddit.org to comply with German censorship laws vis à vis Palestine/Israel


cross-posted from: feddit.org/post/12550375

Regarding Mid-East-related Comments on !europe

Hi.

In the past few days, discontent regarding mod decisions in this community has been brewing, particularly when it comes to comments on Palestine, Israel, and Israeli politics and actions. There are also misunderstandings regarding mod intention and German law. We hope to clear that up with this post.

While the servers of feddit.org are in Austria, most of the mods of this community as well as admins of this server live in Germany. Speaking of, our server admins have also posted a write-up on the same topic.

And with that, let's go:

In Germany, antisemitism is specifically sanctioned in German criminal law, both for speech and as a motivation for other criminal behavior. In addition, Germany seeks to protect the Jewish state of Israel (the so-called "Reason of State" introduced in 2008) and thus verges toward protecting Zionism as well. Certain criticism of Israel/Israelis is also categorized as "Israel-related antisemitism".

Since criminal law is involved, enforcement can mean things like police raids and device confiscations. After such police action, it does not really matter if it was appropriate or if cases are dropped or never charged: The damage is done. All told, it's not that fun.

There is also no point in engaging in discussions about the veracity of statements that could get us into legal trouble. In addition, we believe that you can express most opinions without breaking rules.

If your comment contains the following, it will be removed from this community:

  • Calling for the dissolution of Israel, or calling for a one-state solution without specifying equal rights for all people; Jewish in particular.
  • Calling for a destruction, annihilation, an end of all Zionism or the like.
  • Equating Israeli actions and (historical) Nazism.
  • The slogan "from the river..."
  • Endorsement of or justifications for Hamas or Hezbollah, or slogans or graphics positively referring to these organizations. These are considered terrorist organizations in Germany.
  • ... and obviously: Any of the common antisemitic tropes or calls to violence against Jews or Israelis

Comments will not be removed for the following:

  • Denouncing genocide.
  • Denouncing Israeli war crimes.
  • Criticizing Zionism as an ideology or political movement.
  • Referring to the current Israeli government as "criminal," "expansionist," or "far-right".

If your comment is removed nonetheless, these are not the reason. I'd also like to stress that this community was never a free-speech-absolutist zone: It is a (usually lightly) moderated community. There may also be times when bans go too far. In such cases, please DM the @EuroMod@feddit.org account (which all mods have access to).

:::spoiler To help you understand why, I'll leave an assortment of sources here (translations via DeepL).

  • A news report:
    Berlin in mid-May [2024] around 6 o'clock in the morning. A loud, continuous "banging" against the apartment door wakes student Alina T. from her sleep. [...] When her husband opens the door, several LKA officers, two employees of the district office and the SEK "storm" past him into the apartment. Puzzled, he looks at the search warrant. [...] The background to this was a Facebook entry in the student's profile: "From the river [...]


  • A legal treatise:
    In November 2023, the Federal Ministry of the Interior and for Home Affairs also issued a prohibition order against Hamas.[60] According to the order, "the slogan 'From the River to the Sea' (in German or other languages)" is a distinguishing mark of Hamas[61].
    [...] the current legal situation [regarding "Denial of Israel's right to exist"] is - contrary to what the statements of the Federal Ministry of Justice suggest[63] - anything but clear. Whether incitements to eliminate the State of Israel are prosecuted depends on the respective legal opinion and the prosecution will of the respective public prosecutor's office.


  • Press release from the previous government:
    In this context, Section 111 StGB, which covers public incitement to commit crimes, may also be relevant. Incitement to extinguish Israel's existence by force may be punishable under this provision. The same applies to calls to publicly display the Hamas flag. If Hamas attacks are publicly cheered and celebrated, this may also be punishable.
    This means that people who cheer on Hamas's actions or publicly express their sympathy with the attacks may constitute the criminal offence of "approval of criminal acts" under Section 140 of the German Criminal Code (StGB).


  • Another news report
    > In connection with the controversial Palestine Congress in Berlin, the German authorities have also imposed an entry ban on former Greek finance minister Yanis Varoufakis. "In order to prevent antisemitic and anti-Israel propaganda at the event", several entry bans have been issued, the news agency AFP learned from security sources on Sunday. One of these concerned Varoufakis.
    (Notably, Varoufakis would have spoken about one-state solutions ...)

Why so much is riding on Poland’s presidential elections.

Power in Poland rests primarily with the prime minister and parliament. But the president wields real influence by signing laws into force, or vetoing them, appointing judges and ambassadors, and helping shape foreign policy.

Presidents rarely impose their own agenda, but they can certainly frustrate the government’s.
