IDSF22: GLOBAL DIALOGUE ON MANAGING DIGITALISATION RESPONSIBLY
Developments in digital technologies are advancing at a rapid pace, making it difficult to properly consider their advantages and disadvantages. Consequently, it is often only after a new technology has entered the market that adjustments to the societal and statutory framework conditions are made. This is the focus of the second International Digital Security Forum (IDSF) taking place in Vienna’s MuseumsQuartier from 31 May to 2 June 2022, which takes as its theme “Secure digitalisation for a safe, green and sustainable future”.
Markus Klemen, CEO of SBA, will talk about Supply Chain Security: Addressing Cyber Vulnerabilities and Interdependencies in Session 9 on Wed, June 1 at 16:30.
