Event description
Cybersecurity attacks are pervasive and are more and more a reality of our everyday (digital) life. In case of attack, different actors have different priorities and it is not easy to know what support is available (if any) to address any threat.
This panel discussion will look at these concerns from three perspectives: that of public authorities (which institutions and solutions can be available to offer support), the regulatory and policy trends at the city level, as well as consider the needs and priorities of the private sector.
