Information and communication technologies represent the key to modernity for socio-political, economic development and national security, which is becoming the main ground of geopolitical confrontation. Cyber \u200b\u200battacks on sensitive infrastructure can be as deadly as nuclear or weapons of mass destruction, and this is a whole new reality. On the scenario of a dominance of some developed countries in Information Technology and the emergence of monopolies that control the network, stream and database infrastructures, we can see a threat of digital inequality and supremacy, which from soft power is turning into hard power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For the nations that lag behind in digital development, the risks of a gradual loss and therefore a consequent destruction of the structural elements of state sovereignty significantly increase the risks of this transformation. In fact, digital inequality is an increasingly tangible threat to democracy and security. Due to digital inequality, each nation has as its priority the development of a cyber defense system, the development of which requires economic but above all human resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the cyber sector there is the creation of many new job opportunities that did not exist in the past and that will have to be hired by young professionals in different disciplines. Consequently, it is essential to increase the opportunities for the training of young people and new talents on technologies and techniques for the defense of sensitive structures. Young people trained in new courses of study will have to protect the national digital space and guarantee its perimeter. The stakes are high, but how do we intend to act to create the conditions for more and more young people to pursue a career in the world of cybersecurity?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":3419,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"tags":[],"channel":[],"event_type":[77],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
