In May, the NATO Cooperative Cyber Defence Centre of Excellence (CCDCOE) hosted its Military Operations Planning in International Law<\/em> course in Tallinn, Estonia. Dr Roland Kelemen, Head of the Department of Modern Technology and Cybersecurity Law at Sz\u00e9chenyi Istv\u00e1n University, became the first representative from Hungary\u2019s civilian higher education sector to participate in the expert-level legal training.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A total of 29 participants from 17 NATO member states attended the programme in Tallinn. Representing Hungary, Dr Roland Kelemen was the first civilian participant from the country\u2014that is, the first attendee not employed by a government institution or armed service\u2014to take part in the course. He serves as Head of the Department of Modern Technology and Cybersecurity Law at the De\u00e1k Ferenc Faculty of Law and Political Sciences of Sz\u00e9chenyi Istv\u00e1n University.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His participation reflects a growing commitment to new forms of cooperation between defence organisations and civilian institutions. One of the key initiators of this approach in recent years has been Colonel Dr \u00c1d\u00e1m Farkas, a researcher at Sz\u00e9chenyi Istv\u00e1n University. As a result, the faculty has already become actively involved in several programmes organised by the NATO Cooperative Cyber Defence Centre of Excellence, which serves the Alliance\u2019s 32 North American and European member states. Lieutenant Colonel Dr L\u00e1szl\u00f3 Vikman<\/a> contributed to the preparation of the organisation\u2019s largest cyber defence exercise, while a team of law and computer engineering students from the University achieved a top-three finish in the Locked Shields Partner Run<\/a>, the rehearsal event preceding the main exercise. Dr Roland Kelemen also participated as a faculty member of the team before successfully completing the Military Operations Planning in International Law course, which had previously been open exclusively to military and government professionals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr Roland Kelemen, Head of the Department of Modern Technology and Cybersecurity Law at Sz\u00e9chenyi Istv\u00e1n University, became the first Hungarian civilian to complete the legal training programme of the NATO Cooperative Cyber Defence Centre of Excellence.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The intensive five-day programme combined expert instruction with practical team exercises, addressing some of today\u2019s most pressing cybersecurity challenges, including state responsibility, the concept of sovereignty in cyberspace, and the legal limits on the use of force. Participants also examined the implications of artificial intelligence and explored the application of international humanitarian law in cyberspace, with particular emphasis on target selection, the protection of civilians, and the role of human rights during conflicts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe programme clearly demonstrated that cooperation between governmental, military and civilian organisations fosters outstanding results and forward-looking joint thinking,\u201d said Dr Roland Kelemen. \u201cThe same principle is reflected in Gy\u0151r, where <\/em>our University carries out research and development activities in partnership with defence organisations<\/em><\/a> and other public-sector stakeholders, bringing together academia and the defence community.\u201d <\/em>He also praised the structure of the training as a model of best practice, noting that gaining deeper insight into NATO\u2019s cooperative framework was an especially valuable experience. \u201cIt was reassuring to see that the courses offered by our faculty follow a similar structure, combining theoretical knowledge with practical case studies. This confirms that our educational approach meets international standards,\u201d<\/em> he added. He also highlighted that the programme provided an excellent opportunity to build professional networks among participating member states and institutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
