In recent years, we have experienced a significant speedup of the digitalization process. On one hand, this brings significant advantages for data security, for example through application of such technologies as distributed ledger and strong cryptographic authentication. At the same time, the changes expose our society to new and frequently unexpected threats. What we urgently need is a robust ecosystem of trust in the digital world. It seems to require a pragmatic reshaping of many strategies, given existing limitations. The conference aims to state the questions clearly and to attempt to provide some initial ideas for the near future strategies.
The session is organized in cooperation with companies WASKO and ORANGE active on the Polish IT market.
