Organizations' digital infrastructure faces a wide range of cyber threats every day. From targeted attacks such as ransomware and phishing to sophisticated threats from state actors - the risks are complex, constantly evolving and increasingly difficult to manage. In this topic dossier, "Cyber Threats and Risks," we offer insight into today's most important digital threats and their impact on organizations in both the public and private sectors.

This dossier explores, among other things:

-Common cyber attacks, such as malware, DDoS attacks and social engineering.

-Specific risks within sectors such as government, healthcare, education and critical infrastructure.

-The role of human error and vulnerabilities within systems.

-Threat assessments from national and international agencies, such as the National Cyber Security Center (NCSC) and European Union Agency (ENISA).

-Practical tools for risk assessment, detection and prevention.

In addition to an overview of current developments and trends, we pay attention to relevant laws and regulations (such as the NIS2 Directive and the BIO), best practices and real-life examples.
