Waterford IT, as coordinators of the IST SecurIST project, were requested to contribute to the widely distributed newsletter of the Critical Information Infrastructure Research Co-ordination project (CI²RCO), whose main objective is to create and co-ordinate a European taskforce to encourage a co-ordinated Europe-wide approach for Research and Development (R&D) on Critical Information Infrastructure Protection (CIIP), and to establish a European Research Area (ERA) on CIIP as part of the larger Information Society Technologies (IST) Strategic Objective to integrate and strengthen the ERA on Dependability and Security.

In addition to this, the TSSG's Mícheál O'Foghlú and Jim Clarke are on the nominated Advisory Board of the CI²RCO project.
