Corporate Cyber ​​Resilience: Technologies, Risks, and Solutions

The development of information technology and the expansion of the internet are driving an increase in the volume of data and digital services, which brings numerous challenges in the field of cybersecurity. Ensuring cybersecurity involves both technical and non-technical aspects. This seminar will focus on concepts and technologies that are often misinterpreted, poorly understood, or entirely unfamiliar.

Throughout the seminar, various areas of cybersecurity will be explored. We will begin with the fundamentals of cryptography, aiming to shed light on the technologies that form the basis of many security mechanisms. Cryptography is closely linked to digital certificates and public key infrastructure. We will clarify concepts such as electronic signatures, digital certificates, SIGEN-CA, and the eID card, and demonstrate their practical applications.

A crucial aspect of securing information systems is protecting communication channels through technologies like HTTPS and VPN, where we will address some common misconceptions. We will also examine modern methods of user authentication using biometrics and standards such as FIDO 2 and PassKey. The future of cybersecurity in

the era of quantum computing will be discussed, and the seminar will conclude with an overview of a comprehensive approach to information security, including information security management systems.

The seminar will be led by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Marko Hölbl from the Laboratory for Data Technologies at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, University of Maribor.
