Ten Years of Trust – Protecting What Matters!
Over the last decade, data protection, cybersecurity and technology governance have become inseparable in the way our digital societies are organised. What began as legal compliance has evolved into questions of power, resilience, legitimacy and trust.
The European Centre on Privacy & Cybersecurity (ECPC), established at the Faculty of Law in 2016, was created just after the adoption of the GDPR – at the precise moment when implementation, rather than legislation, became the real challenge.
Driven by a vision to inspire and inform, ECPC has developed into a leading post-academic institution where professionals can begin their training in privacy, cybersecurity and data governance. From short executive courses, up to an advanced master, ECPC prides itself in not only educating its students on essential knowledge but also providing the practical skills and confidence needed to navigate the challenging world of privacy and cybersecurity.
With the 10th anniversary, together with its staff and global community of alumni and experts, ECPC will celebrate everything learned over the past ten years and – equally as important – we will look ahead to future educational responsibilities.
