During the presentation “When the City Stops: Who Manages the City’s Digital Infrastructure?”, our colleague Riko Luša, Head of Cyber Security, addressed the growing dependence of modern cities on interconnected IT, OT, and Smart City systems that support essential public services. He highlighted how digital transformation, while delivering significant benefits, also increases exposure to complex interdependencies, external suppliers, and systems that evolve faster than traditional governance models can adapt.

Particular emphasis was placed on the fact that cybersecurity risks are no longer solely a technology issue. In an environment shaped by new regulatory requirements and rising security demands, cyber risks have a direct impact on service availability, operational stability, and a city’s ability to respond effectively in crisis situations.
