00:00I would like the world to know that we have to seriously protect the digital part of our daily lives because the world is facing still, it's not new, a kind of epidemic of online crime, cyber crime, which of course is borderless by nature and affects our private devices, our computers at home or even our critical infrastructures in our societies.
00:30The Global Cybersecurity Forum brought together leaders from more than 80 countries. Their challenge was to move from words to practical frameworks for a safer, more resilient cyberspace. From defending energy grids and satellites to tackling AI-driven ransomware, the stakes could not be higher.
00:52It's a global issue. Cybersecurity is there for many years now, including by criminal organized crime. We know that. I mean, the police, Interpol has extensive documents about this.
01:05It's not new, but now it has become more urgent that you should prepare for those attacks because this is not traditional kind of attacks.
01:15They are being developed and now there are more and more developments also because of the developments in technology.
01:21Yes, we should raise awareness and our countries should be prepared to avoid this kind of attacks.
01:26Let's look at how big is that sort of threat that we're facing, whether it's from state actors, organized crime groups, or those individuals sitting in a bedroom.
01:37Well, it's huge. What we've seen in cybersecurity element side on cybercrime is the returns on cybercrime are going into the trillions, effectively.
01:46The threats are everywhere. And I'm not looking to scare everybody here, far from it. But once you connect a device to the Internet, there's a potential vulnerability that you're connecting to as well.
01:58Hybrid war, disinformation, sabotage. The fault lines of conflict have shifted online. And experts warn that resilience, not just retaliation, will define who can withstand the next wave.
02:08The solution is to get better at defense, to plug a lot of the holes in our infrastructure, in our software, in our hardware, to do the right things in defense, which we've been talking about for many years, but many companies still don't quite do it.
02:21If we do that, if we also plan for when an attack gets through, so plan for resilience, how do you get back up and running? How do you limit the attack?
02:30How do you train your staff to know what to do after an attack and get things going again? Then actually we can protect our economy.
02:37It wasn't only about technology, but about people, trust, safety and inclusion online. The forum highlighted that the future of cyberspace depends as much on human cooperation as it does on code.
02:50We always think about the technology, the investment and infrastructure. Yes, it's needed as a foundation of our digital development.
03:02But on the upper layer, we need to have massive investment in people, skills, human talent. Why? Because I used to say there is no digital transformation if we don't have the digital trust.
03:16And the trust, on one side, we have the infrastructure. On the other side, we have the people.
03:23UN women mourn that failure to include half the world's population leaves countries more vulnerable.
03:28Cyber security is only as strong as it is inclusive. And cognitive diversity makes a massive difference, especially when cyber attacks are impacting countries, a nation or an economy.
03:41The percentage of the cyber security workforce comprised of women is 24%. In 2012, it was only 10%. So this is a good news story where we've seen women increasingly enter and thrive in cyber security, but still more needs to be done.
04:00Essentially, what we see is that leaving behind half the world's population only makes countries more vulnerable to cyber security threats.
04:10And as artificial intelligence becomes a weapon in the wrong hands, experts warn the attacks will target not just machines, but our minds.
04:18The point to think about is that cybercrime, and specifically AI-driven cybercrime, is not just an attack against machines.
04:27It's an attack against humans, an attack against the human mind.
04:32We are going to have to upscale, upscale, to deal with this attack.
04:36From hybrid war to human vulnerability, the message from Riyadh is clear.
04:40Cyber security can no longer be treated as a specialist technical issue.
04:44It demands resilience in our infrastructure, investment in people, and inclusion across society.
04:49Because in a hyper-connected world, the next battlefront may be just one click away.
04:53Cyber security will have to look at workers hermaning.
05:01Faster pre-ranked world, the next battlefront may be treated as far as far as many.
05:06The aftermath of the world can no longer be treated as managed by escapism.
05:14By the time, you see also the evidence-based cooperation on daily battlefields,
05:19the next battlefront may be treated as massacred byект from the주oday at the lacVO-PUERFENEJ.
