🤖Last week, DESFA SA – Hellenic Gas Transmission System Operator and PwC Italy, had the privilege of participating in the 𝐄𝐍𝐈𝐒𝐀 𝐂𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐄𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟒. This event marks the 𝟕𝐭𝐡 𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐩𝐚𝐧-𝐄𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐞𝐱𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 designed to test #cybersecurity, #businesscontinuity, and #crisismanagement capabilities for both public and private sectors 𝐚𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐄𝐔 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐄𝐅𝐓𝐀 𝐌𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬. 🎯Main theme of this year the 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫, recognizing its critical role in the European economy. We encountered 𝐬𝐢𝐦𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞-𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐞 #cybersecurityincidents based on real-world events, which escalated into full-blown #cybercrises. The exercise scenario involved 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐧 𝐩𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐬, 𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬, and widespread 𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐄𝐔'𝐬 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫. Additionally, #digital 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐫𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐢𝐜 𝐚𝐝𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 were targeted as secondary objectives to heighten pressure and incite chaos. The success of the exercise hinged on several factors: 📌 The 𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐞 of the Team; 📌 The 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 across organisations and at the national level; 📌 The ability to handle dynamic media pressure tasks. It was also a great opportunity to enhance our skills in cyber #incidentresponse and to collaborate once again with one of the leading market players in the Energy sector in Europe. 🙌🏻 A special thanks to the #DESFA 𝐈𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 & 𝐁𝐮𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐬 for the opportunity to work together on the exercise and to the 𝐏𝐰𝐂 𝐈𝐭𝐚𝐥𝐲 𝐂𝐲𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐦.

The cybersecurity industry is intricately tied to the evolving political climate. As political landscapes change, the industry has been adapting in several ways: 1. Regulation and Compliance: Increasingly complex regulations around data protection and privacy have led cybersecurity professionals to focus more on compliance measures. They must ensure that their systems and practices adhere to new legal requirements. 2. Geopolitical Threats: The shifting political dynamics influence cyber threats. Nation-state actors and politically-motivated hacking groups are adjusting their tactics to align with geopolitical objectives, making it essential for cybersecurity experts to stay informed about international developments. 3. Collaboration and Information Sharing: The industry is placing a stronger emphasis on collaboration and information sharing among governments, private companies, and international organizations. This enables a more coordinated response to cyber threats that have political implications. 4. Supply Chain Security: The interconnected nature of technology supply chains has prompted a focus on securing every link in the chain. Political tensions can lead to disruptions, making supply chain risk management crucial. 5. Emerging Threats: Political events and global conflicts can lead to new types of cyber threats, such as disinformation campaigns and attacks targeting critical infrastructure. Cybersecurity professionals are working to anticipate and defend against these emerging threats. 6. Cyber Diplomacy: Governments are engaging in cyber diplomacy to establish international norms and agreements for responsible behavior in cyberspace. This has implications for how cybersecurity is approached on a global scale. In essence, the cybersecurity industry is continuously adapting to the changing political climate by staying vigilant, collaborating across sectors, and staying adaptable in the face of new challenges posed by evolving geopolitical dynamics.

Save the date: 'Armed Davos' Munich Security Conference. Munich Security Index 2024- is published as a part of MSC Report 2024 today! Munich Security Index 2024 With the Munich Security Index (MSI), the MSC and Kekst CNC together have built a data set to explore citizens’ risk perceptions in the G7 and BRICS nations. By combining five metrics – overall risk, potential damage, expected trajectory, perceived imminence, and feelings of preparedness – the core index, underpinned by a survey of 1,000 people per country, provides annual insights into how major countries view risk. With the first edition of the index published in 2021, the index also enables an evaluation of how risk perceptions change over time. Apart from the core index of risks perceptions, the MSI also includes a set of additional questions relevant to security policy that may vary from year to year. Since 2022, the MSC and Kekst CNC have not polled in Russia and instead have polled in Ukraine. For the Munich Security Index 2023, the full index was polled in Ukraine; for the Munich Security Index 2024, a survey with selected questions was conducted in Ukraine. Following last year’s record-high threat perceptions, the Munich Security Index 2024 registers aggregate decreases in 21 risk indicators, while ten indicators saw overall increases. The threat from Russia and related risks – including the use of nuclear weapons by an aggressor and energy supply disruptions – still rank considerably higher than in 2021, but compared to last year, they have dropped in the risk index. Meanwhile, perceptions of nontraditional risks remain high. People around the world continue to be most concerned about environmental threats, while risk perceptions of mass migration as a result of war or climate change, radical Islamic terrorism, and organized crime have heightened. The Munich Security Index 2024 is part of the MSR 2024 and is available here. https://lnkd.in/egEcGsZs

Published a special issue series with the fantastic Tommy Hall on "Digital Governance in Japan and Taiwan" with the University of Nottingham's Taiwan Insight! In today's digital era, the interplay between politics and technology is particularly pronounced in East Asia. Countries like Taiwan are navigating the delicate balance between preserving free speech and countering foreign interference, while Japan is actively integrating advanced technology into its national security strategies. This dynamic underscores the complexities democracies face in an increasingly digital world, where the quest for the right balance is ongoing and critical. This series highlights the unique challenges and opportunities facing East Asian democracies, drawing connections between their experiences and broader global trends. In an age where digital technology is ubiquitous, national security increasingly depends on effective cybersecurity. Taiwan and Japan exemplify this shift, proactively adopting advanced technologies to defend against digital threats. Their approach isn't just about responding to immediate dangers but reflects a wider trend where digital safety is crucial for political stability. The experiences of Taiwan and Japan provide key lessons for other regions facing similar challenges. These include the need for agility in response to evolving threats, the importance of technological innovation, and the value of international cooperation. As these East Asian democracies adapt and evolve, they offer a lens through which to view the future of national security in a digitally interconnected world. Read more here!
