2020 台灣-盧森堡資安商機線上交流會 ─ 盧森堡：進入歐洲資安市場的捷徑

　　盧森堡是歐盟創始會員國之一，位於歐洲核心地區，也是通往五億歐盟公民市場的主要門戶之一。該國金融業高度發達，為全球金融重鎮，人均 GDP 與國家競爭力皆名列世界前茅。國內共有超過 125 家來自 27 國的國際銀行與23座高階安全資料中心 (Data center)。

　　盧森堡非常重視資訊安全，在 2010 年左右設立了電腦緊急應變小組  CIRCL （CERT），並預計於 2020 年底前啟動全國性的分散式阻斷服務攻擊（DDoS）緩解基礎設施，目的保護政府和關鍵基礎設施或基本服務提供商對抗大規模的分散式阻斷服務攻擊（DDoS）攻擊。

盧國也因為注重資安，擁有友善經商與多語環境，成為歐盟高效能運算(HPC)的總部，以及許多國際大型企業與金融單位認可與信賴的國家。亞馬遜（Amazon）、Skype、PayPal、樂天 (Rakuten) 等國際企業都選擇把歐洲總部設在盧森堡。

　　盧森堡也是歐盟數據策略委員會八個成員國之一，該委員會主要在於執行數據基礎架構與商業旗艦計畫。盧森堡亦於2019年5月發布《盧森堡數據驅動創新策略》，並將專注於以下數據領域:醫療，物流，智慧交通，循環經濟與網路資訊安全，未來的目標是成為數據驅動型經濟中值得信賴的第三方。

　　在歐洲數據策略背景下，盧森堡將加入歐洲下一代數據基礎架構 GAIA-X 聯盟(雲端服務平台)。GAIA-X 早期由德國業界發起，目的是打造可信賴的歐洲公有雲， 以應對歐洲資料可攜性、透明化與安全問題， 並協助歐洲中小企業降低雲端服務成本與資安風險。預計未來在這一新的歐洲雲端服務平台上，將出現對資訊安全產品，雲端安全營運中心(雲端 SOC/security operation center)，雲端網路(資安)事件應變技術的多樣需求。

　　有鑑於此，經濟部工業局與盧森堡台北辦事處共同舉辦【台灣-盧森堡資安商機線上交流會-盧森堡：進入歐洲資安市場的捷徑】，希望透過本次活動讓台灣資安通訊相關業者了解開拓盧森堡與歐洲市場的契機，進而針對數位金融、區塊鏈、AI、資料數據安全等資安議題商機更深入了解。

Luxembourg is one of the founding members of the European Union. Situated in the heart of Europe, the country is a market gateway to half a billion European Union citizens. Luxembourg has a highly developed finance sector and is considered as an important financial hub worldwide. Furthermore, it is also well known for its high GDP per capita and innovative competitiveness. 

Cyber security is highly considered in Luxembourg. The national CERT (CIRCL) was established in 2010 and it is foreseen to launch by the end of 2020 a national Distributed Denial of Services (DDoS) mitigation infrastructure, with the objective to protect the government and critical infrastructures or providers of essential services against large scale DDoS attacks. 

Thanks to its excellent reputation for trusted services and business friendly, multilingual environment, it has become the headquarters for the EuroHPC initiative and home to many multinationals and financial institutions, such as Amazon, Skype, Microsoft and Rakuten all choose to set up their European headquarters in Luxembourg.

Luxembourg is part of the eight European member states working closely together on the European Commission Strategy for Data, implementing infrastructures and business pilots. Luxembourg also published “Luxembourg Data-driven Innovation Strategy” in May 2019, and it will specialize in the following data domains: health, logistics, mobility, circular economy and cyber security. The ultimate goal is to position itself as a trusted third party in the data driven economy. 

Luxembourg will join the GAIA-X initiative, the new European Cloud initiative for trusted cloud. The initiative was kick-started several years ago by German industry, to address the transparency, data portability and trust issues. Therefore, security products, cloud-SOC, cloud incident response technologies will be needed. 

In view of this, the Industrial Development Bureau and Luxembourg Trade and Investment Office in Taipei will co-host a webinar – Luxembourg: Your Gateway to the European Cybersecurity Market, to introduce the cybersecurity landscape in Luxembourg and in Europe and to explore the potential business opportunities.
