According to the World Economic Forum’s Global Risks Report, cyber risks continue to rank among global risks. The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated technological adoption, yet has exposed cyber vulnerabilities and unpreparedness, while at the same time exacerbated the tech inequalities within and between societies.
With the virtual FIWARE Cybersecurity DAY, FIWARE, with the support of GUARD Project and Cyberwatching.eu, is bringing together experts in the field of cybersecurity to review innovative, integrated, and holistic approaches for a secure and trusted Digital Single Market outlining the principles that are guiding the EU action in this domain.
