THE CHALLENGE
By virtue of the ever-increasing cyber threat environment due to geopolitical context, regulatory obligations and the desire to equip territorial staff with cybersecurity training programmes, The client asked to BIP to develop a program aimed to increase cybersecurity awareness and skills of IT personnel managing territorial IT Services.
