With millions of people currently working from home, the COVID-19 pandemic has stressed the importance of cybersecurity in today’s digital economy. In this context, the Charter of Trust kicked off its second, but first-ever virtual, Collaboration Week of 2020, from 8-18 June. Colleagues from all around the globe came together to exchange ideas and to continue growing the strategic outlook of the Charter of Trust, more than two years after its creation.
Charter of Trust members gather virtually for 5th Collaboration Week
Over seven days, Charter of Trust Partners met in taskforces, each dedicated to one of its 10 guiding Principles:
- Principle 2 “Responsibility throughout the digital supply chain”
- Principle 3 “Security by default”
- Principle 6 “Education”
- Principle 7 “Certification for critical infrastructure and solutions”
- Principle 8 “Transparency and response”
The five Principle Taskforces took stock of the work done over the past half-year and set concrete objectives for the second half of the year leading to the 2021 Munich Security Conference. Taskforces cross-aligned on the interaction between one another to ensure the creation of a holistic picture on the interplay of cybersecurity efforts.
Collaboration between trusted Partners is of utmost importance, and so is the knowledge-exchange with external organisations to share best practices. Charter of Trust Partners benefitted from key insights from the OECD, the UK National Cyber Security Centre’s CyberFirst initiative, the Information Security Forum (ISF), the International Society of Automation (ISA) Global Cybersecurity Alliance and the Automotive Information Sharing & Analysis Center (Auto-ISAC).
Through different time zones and sectors, the members of the Charter of Trust have created a vibrant team spirit and a strong vision to make the digital world of tomorrow safer. After the success of its first virtual Collaboration Week, additional online events are being planned to further advance the synergetic nature of the initiative.

36th Cyber Security Day: Working together for more resilience in the digital future
Strong networks and effective cooperation are the key to successfully shaping the digital future in Germany. Cybersecurity is a team effort, and that was again visible last week at the 36th Cyber Security Day in Berlin.
🌐On 26 September 2024, the Bundesamt für Sicherheit in der Informationstechnik (BSI), Alliance for Cyber Security, and the DIHK invited experts, companies, authorities and political decision-makers to jointly strengthen Germany's cyber resilience.
The event was a great mix of policy debate, practical exchange, workshop and networking under the motto ‘Stronger Together: Greater Resilience through Cooperation’.
✨ One of the highlights of the day was the closing panel with Claudia Plattner, President of the BSI, Dr. Stefan Saatmann, Deputy Head Berlin Office at Siemens, Konstantin von Notz, Member of the Bundestag for B90/Greens, and Alexander von Gernler, German Informatics Society, interchanging ideas to foster resilience through collaboration. Initiatives like the CoT baseline requirements and its huge potential for international harmonizing cybersecurity regulations were discussed as well.
Let’s all work together so that closer cooperation between the BSI and businesses bring more tangible effects to increase digital resilience. Special thanks to Nils Hasenau for providing the excellent photos and also to Simon Ulmer and Ralf König for attending the event.

Nordic Cyber Summit 2024
The Charter of Trust at the Nordic Cyber Summit
What a great opportunity for Morten Kromann, Head of Industrial Security Denmark at Siemens, to present the Charter of Trust perspective on cybersecurity regulations like Hashtag#NIS2 at the Nordic Cyber Summit in Copenhagen.
This year the summit was again a formidable event to engage with top cybersecurity experts, share insights, and discuss strategies to navigate the ever-evolving threat landscape in the Nordic region with the theme “Fortifying the Future: Building Cyber Resilience in a Transformed World”.
A main aspect highlighted by Morten was the discrepancies between the NIS2 directive’s incidents reporting timeframe and related provisions adopted in other legislations. These regulatory overlaps create difficult compliance environments for industry and costly operational pressures which add to the fragmentation of the market instead of harmonizing it. That is why the Charter of Trust emphasizes streamlining reporting requirements stemming from these different legislative frameworks and developing single entry points for reporting on the national level.
These and more points have been discussed during our Security-by-default Webinar on the 29th of October. See the events section on this website to find the recording of the webinar.
