Love and Cyber Security

With the European Cybersecurity Month (ECSM), the European Union promotes awareness of threats and the culture of security among citizens. Exprivia, an international group specialized in Information and Communication Technology - with a strong presence in Southern Italy - , participates in the campaign by organizing the Apulia CyberSecurity Forum, placing the human factor and training at the center of its event. In fact, we are all worried about software and hardware vulnerabilities, but the human element is the vulnerability that is most often used by attackers The event is in its second edition and will once again be streamed on November 9-10-11-12, 2021. During the four days, it will be possible to hear the experiences of industry specialists who will discuss security as intrinsic value, regulations, IoT, AI, zero trust and threat intelligence. Within the agenda of the CyberSecurity Forum, during the second day, Wednesday 10 November 2021 (at 3:30 PM Italian time), there will be a double interview with our CEO Sofia Scozzari and her husband, Andrea Zapparoli Manzoni, Director of Crowdfense, a UAE-based company that deals with Vulnerability Research Management. Both well-known and active for over fifteen years in the world of Cyber Security, they will tell us about their experiences, starting from their marriage survived to such a particular profession. Thanks to the interview by Domenico Raguseo, Head of Digital Factory CyberSecurity Exprivia, various topics will also be explored including the present and future of Cybercrime and Cyber Security, to understand their trends, but also to anticipate the next evolutions. Operating in two completely different sectors of Cyber Security, Andrea and Sofia can offer a different but complementary vision of this complex area. Without forgetting the importance of the human factor, especially in the presence of cyber attacks that increase year by year, both in terms of the frequency and the criticality and complexity of criminal operations. As Sofia likes to repeat, when we talk about cyber attacks we must in fact consider ourselves as if we were walking in a hive: sooner or later it is inevitable to be stung. It is important to be aware of this and to be well prepared. Don't miss the double interview!
