The digital acceleration of the Italian manufacturing industry has exponentially amplified the cyber attack surface, turning every IoT sensor, SCADA system, and automated production line into a potential entry point for increasingly sophisticated threats. The new European regulatory landscape – from NIS2 to the Cyber Resilience Act – it does not only represent a bureaucratic obligation, but a call to action for radically rethink the approach to industrial security. In this context, theArtificial intelligence emerges as a dual protagonist: accelerator of productive innovation e, simultaneously, vector of new vulnerabilities that require new defense strategies.
The panel will explore how manufacturing companies can navigate this complexity transforming regulatory compliance into a strategic lever for building resilient, secure, and competitive production ecosystems in the global market. The goal is to provide a practical roadmap for integrating cybersecurity, technological innovation, and regulatory compliance into a unified vision of sustainable growth.
Among the event's speakers was our own Mario Testino, a cybersecurity expert and Managing Director of ServiTecno.
