Cybersec 2025: response to growing cyber threats

In the face of a dynamically changing landscape of digital threats, Cybersec Expo & Forum 2025 is positioned as a place where companies and organizations can find services and products necessary to secure their activities. The mission of the conference is not only the presentation of technology, but also building awareness and competences in the field of cyber resistance. The statistics are alarming: 43% of cyber attacks are aimed at small companies, of which only 14% is able to defend itself, and the average time of detecting data leakage is 197 days, plus another 69 days to stop it. Cybersec 2025 directly addresses these challenges, offering participants access to knowledge and tools to effectively protect digital resources.

The jubilee, 20th edition of Cybersec, taking place under the honorable patronage of the Polish Presidency in the EU Council, is a unique moment in our history. This year, we focus on creating a platform that combines innovators, business leaders and cyber security experts, enabling them to present solutions that shape the digital future of Europe. Cybersec 2025 is more than a conference – it is a place where visions and technologies meet to build a safer future together. Our goal is not only an analysis of threats, but above all to determine development directions and support enterprises in adaptation to the dynamically changing Cyberzagrovation landscape

– says Marietta Gieroń, chairwoman of the Cybersec Program Council, president of the Kościuszko Institute.
