Black Friday, the global shopping phenomenon, has turned into a significant opportunity for cybercriminals. This year, there has been a 25% increase in cyber threats compared to previous periods, highlighting how malicious actors are increasingly exploiting moments of high digital activity to target consumers and businesses.
In the past two months, Europe has faced a series of significant cyber attacks, highlighting the growing threats in the cyber sector. These attacks have targeted critical sectors, including government infrastructure, the banking sector, and national defense, raising serious concerns about data security and infrastructure protection.
In the telecommunications landscape, cloud applications have become essential tools for daily operations. However, with the increased adoption of these technologies, there has also been a significant rise in cyber threats exploiting these applications to spread malware.
Today, we have the pleasure of speaking with the CBDO of Binarii Labs, a pioneering private Irish company founded on September 14, 2021. Binarii Labs was established by four visionaries united by a shared passion for data security, data sovereignty, and deep tech. The founding team includes Steven Garner, the CTO and inventor, who brings senior-level experience from global financial institutions; Ciarán McNamee and Nigel Carter, both with extensive careers in investment banking; and Aidan Finn, who boasts over a decade of deep tech business expertise.
Recognizing a significant gap in existing cybersecurity measures, particularly in safeguarding core data, the founders collaborated to address these vulnerabilities. They built upon Steven Garner's innovative invention, which has now secured patents in both the UK and the US.
Binarii Labs is on a mission to revolutionize data processing, enhancing data sovereignty, privacy, security, and secure sharing. Their goal is to ensure business continuity, facilitate disaster recovery, and eliminate the inherent risks associated with using email for file sharing—a major threat vector for cyber-attacks.
Join us as we delve deeper into the vision, challenges, and future plans of Binarii Labs with their CBDO.

Cyber threats continue to evolve, and threat actors are becoming increasingly adept at adopting new tactics and tools to evade detection and compromise the security of organizations. This constant evolution makes it essential for businesses to stay up-to-date with the latest trends in cybersecurity to protect their networks and devices.
In a broader European context, the European Parliament recently discussed a proposal for a regulation that establishes harmonized rules on artificial intelligence, known as the "AI Act." This act aims to provide a comprehensive regulatory framework for the use of Artificial Intelligence in the European Union and to ensure its consistent application among member countries. Antonio Nicita, the proponent of the Italian bill, has indicated that, while waiting for this European regulatory framework, it is urgent to introduce measures that make the non-human origin of AI-generated content clear.
One of the increasingly hot topics today is the use of artificial intelligence in the artistic field. In this context, the most significant issues involve not only the protection of personal data but also that of artworks and intellectual properties. The University of Chicago has shed light on a new method of cyber-attack, named "Nightshade," which aims to "poison" artificial intelligence generative models.
In the increasingly interconnected world in which we operate, cybersecurity has become an issue of crucial importance for companies. Cyber attacks are increasingly sophisticated and frequent, and often occur due to internal company behavior that unintentionally incentivizes attackers.We'll explore five specific behaviors that can endanger business security and offer practical advice on how to avoid them. Additionally, we will provide three key tips to effectively protect businesses from cyber threats.
