From Telefónica Tech, we were present at the fifth and last day of the congress, to talk about the vertical of cyber security. In the interview, Sergio de los Santos, director of the Innovation and Labs Area at Telefónica Tech, spoke about 'More cyber-resilient organizations', about the challenges faced by organizations in terms of cybersecurity and how they can develop their business in a cyber-resilient way, with an appropriate strategy and partners. Sergio tells how “we have seen how attackers are more sophisticated and are quite likely to succeed in their attacks, no matter how secure an organization's cybersecurity is. For this reason, at Telefónica Tech we work a lot on recovery support, to minimize the repercussion and impact.”
