The Polish-Israeli Technology and Science Forum, as a non-governmental scientific and economic entity, has chosen as its mission the public awareness
and the entire country on the topic related to the area of cyber security as well as the threats and
consequences that accompany it.
The main goal is to increase the level of security of the public
sector, the private sector and citizens in the provision or use of key services and digital services.
The Forum
aims to implement and create strategic recommendations and development directions for key public policies
that provide substantive support to Polish and foreign business entities. Reports and analyzes and their
conclusions prepared by independent experts will be an important source of information for the private
sector and the public sector in a broad sense.
As the Polish-Israeli Technology and Science Forum, the main content partner is the Israeli side and entities associated with this technology direction,
from the very origin of its creation, but also due to experience. The Cybersecurity technology area in
Israel, which is an important part of the technology industry, includes a wide range of companies involved
in the development and development of software used in the defense sector as well as in other areas of the
economy through the broadly understood area of transport, energy security or health protection, and other
media necessary for efficient functioning of the economy and the state. The industry includes companies
that have been operating in it for a long time as independent companies, as well as Start-Ups, which have
become the development centers of the world’s largest entities in this industry. In Israel, extensive
pro-development activities are also carried out, consisting in the development of offensive tools for
fighting in cyberspace. Due to the fact that the branch of our Forum
is located in Israel and its representative for many years cooperated in this field with such entities as
BRM, whose founders were Nir Barkat, Eli Barkat, Yuval Rechbi and Omri Manna, and over the years it became
a competence center, By investing in companies such as BackWeb and Check Point, we can make an invaluable
contribution to increasing cybersecurity at the social and institutional level.
In
the first decade of the 21st century, leading companies in the defense industry in Israel - IAI-Israel
aviation, Rafael - Advanced Combat Systems, Elbit Systems (through its subsidiary “Cyberbit”, which
coordinates the activities of Elbit Systems in the field of cyber intelligence and cyber defense and the
arms industry.
The main intellectual force for the cyber industry are universities and
colleges, with mathematics, computer science, cybernetics and software engineering faculties as well as
Israel Defense Forces technological units such as MMRAM, Unit 8200 and more, which permanently create new
solutions related to securing the digital infrastructure of the country’s most critical and areas
necessary for its efficient functioning - Cybersecurity
Due to our experience, substantive
foundations and extensive relations acquired through years of cooperation with the industrial and public
sector, we aspire as a Forum to be a competence center in this area.
