This is a special Working Group (WG) for coordinating the establishment of a new learned society and will be the successor of the CRANE NetworkPlus, and will take the form of a post-CRANE platform for strengthening the cyber security research ecosystem in the UK and worldwide.
Key aims
- Engage with the cyber security research community and other relevant stakeholders to collect opinions and feedback on how the learned society should be formed and operate.
- Propose governance, finance, membership, operational models of the learned society and to draft relevant formal documents including the Articles of Association and important bylaws.
- Establish the learned society formally as a legal entity and to facilitate close collaboration between CRANE and the established learned society until the end of the funding period.
