Welcome to ForRES

ForRES combines the collective expertise and capabilities of law-enforcement and partner organizations from Germany, Netherlands, Austria, Spain and Norway in order to establish a unified tool-set for fully invasive hardware attacks and a trans-national platform for structuring and sharing knowledge. The resulting platform will be made available to other EU countries and serve as a basis for mutual, cross-border cooperation among EU countries as more LEAs and trusted partner organizations are able to contribute.
