    What this call funds

    This call funds a pilot project to figure out how private-sector data (like sensor feeds, satellite and maritime surveillance data) could be shared with and used by Regional Cable Hubs to improve monitoring of submarine cable security. It covers mapping data sources, assessing legal and technical barriers to access, testing small-scale proof-of-concept integrations, and proposing partnership models for future EU cooperation. The end goal is practical recommendations, not an operational system.
