At the Municipal Information Exchange Thuringia, I presented a pitch on cybersecurity and the evolving threat landscape facing municipalities. The session focused on how public administrations are increasingly targeted by cyberattacks and why effective risk protection has become a critical priority.

A key focus of the presentation was the importance of structured security measures, including risk management, incident response capabilities, and robust technical safeguards to protect sensitive public data and essential services. The discussion also emphasized that cybersecurity in the public sector is not only a technical issue, but also a key factor in operational resilience and public trust.
