INTERSCT. Round Table #4
Purpose
The digitalization of our society, including our industry, is progressing rapidly and more and more products are becoming connected using the Internet. Such products with digital components will become subject to a range of new legislation and regulations with respect to cyber security (e.g. CRA, NIS2, RED3, UNECE R155) and many of these will also have serious implications for the companies designing, developing, deploying, operating, and maintaining these as well as their suppliers. However, what should we change in industry, government, and society to ensure products and services to be used that are secure when acquired and remain secure while in use? What is your opinion?
We will start the session with an introduction to the changing legislation and regulations by Ben Kokx followed by two series of pitch presentations by the participants. During these presentations, presenters should focus on (1) the most important cyber security ‘problems’ they foresee today and those that they foresee in the coming 5 to 10 years, and (2) their suggestions for ‘handling’ these.
