In the constantly evolving realm of cybersecurity, the human aspect is crucial yet frequently underestimated.
Cybersecurity involves protecting IT systems from threats posed by cybercriminals. These criminals might aim to manipulate systems, steal or export data, or disrupt or alter services. However, what occurs when individuals, rather than IT systems, become the focus of these attacks? Moving from targeting systems to targeting people necessitates a different methodology and a shift in tactics.
In his presentation, Enrico will explore the CYRUS European project, an endeavour to develop personalised cybersecurity training programmes specifically for the manufacturing and transport sectors. Drawing on research, Enrico will unveil key findings regarding the distinct skill shortfalls and training necessities identified within these industries. He will spotlight these sectors' peculiar challenges and how personalised training enables employees at every level, from the factory floor to the executive suite, to recognise and counter cybersecurity threats effectively.
