Quantum computer
Quantum computers will fundamentally change the way we look at humanity’s most complex problems. They promise new insights, from materials science to medicine and climate research. However, this future technology is also challenging established standards in cyber security.
Important breakthroughs achieved
Confidential patient data, bank details and highly sensitive government and military information must be increasingly protected against eavesdropping and hacking. The necessary basis for this is provided by quantum physics, which goes far beyond conventional mathematical techniques for encryption.
More than just a chore
Data protection has a bad image in many companies.
However, it is worth reflecting on the topic once again.
In practice, it often helps to strengthen companies.
Data security
Comprehensive and correct classification is fundamental for data security. Only if you know which data is (particularly) worth protecting can you implement appropriate measures. This is all the more important in times of AI assistants such as Microsoft Copilot.
Four important lessons for compliance
Two new EU regulations are currently keeping companies busy: the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA), which came into force in January 2024 and regulates the areas of cyber security, IT risks and resilience in the financial sector, and the Artificial Intelligence Act (AI Act), which was passed in March.
EU Directive
The field of “information security” is currently dealing with a new technical term – “NIS 2.0”. Interested experts are realizing that the new EU Network and Information Systems Directive (NIS 2.0) is also being incorporated into national legislation.
WP.29, NIS-2, EU Cyber Resilience Act
Introduction of AI and WP.29 shows that many companies are probably not prepared for the EU Cyber Resilience Act and the EU Supply Chain Directive.
PDF Pro and Help PDF
Many people use free online services to create PDFs quickly and easily.
A recent study by the Cybernews research team reveals that this convenience can come at a high price: the security of personal data.
Feasible or not?
Cloud providers based and operated in the EU could certainly contribute to solving problems related to data transfer and responsibility for stored data.
