Welcome to the official Homepage of the VITA Project

What is VITA?

VITA is a project which has been funded by the European Commission under the first call of the Preparatory Action in the Field of Security Research (PASR 2004).

VITA deals with&

• the threat of Critical Infrastructures in Europe by natural disasters, manmade disasters and technical incidents,
• the protection of such infrastructures via realistic scenario and crisis management simulation,
• increasing the awareness and a sense of urgency on the need for CIP capabilities.

VITA was implemented within a time frame of 20 months from December 2004 until end of July 2006. VITA was performed by an international consortium consisting of seven partners from six EU countries which were co-ordinated by IABG, Ottobrunn, Germany.
