By 2025, cybersecurity strategies will focus heavily on ?? passwordless authentication, secure supply chain practices ??, and the adoption of next-generation encryption standards (Deloitte). With quantum computing’s potential impact on current cryptographic methods ???, organisations must proactively assess and upgrade their encryption protocols to protect sensitive data. At the same time, the ongoing shift to remote and hybrid work environments ?? calls for zero-trust architectures ??? that segment and safeguard networks against emerging threats. Governments and regulatory bodies ?? are also expected to enforce more stringent data protection rules, compelling companies to embed privacy-by-design principles in their infrastructure (PwC). Those that embrace these forward-looking measures, ranging from robust identity management ?? to continuous risk assessment ??, will be best positioned to mitigate the evolving cyber risks of the mid-decade.

??We are excited to share a new article on the #SecOPERA website, written by our partner Thales, exploring key aspects of AI security. As artificial intelligence continues to integrate into various sectors, ensuring its resilience against adversarial threats is more important than ever. In this article, Thales discusses how unsupervised machine learning models are vulnerable to various attacks like evasion, membership inference, and model inversion. These threats expose significant privacy and security risks, and SecOPERA is at the forefront of developing robust defenses. ??Read the full article here: https://bit.ly/3CY1NlA #AI #MachineLearning #Cybersecurity #Innovation #HorizonEU #Privacy

On February 4, 2025, the Sphynx Internal Training Workshop was conducted successfully as part of the SecOPERA project.

That’s a wrap on the #SecOPERA plenary meeting in Paris! ? Over the past two days, hosted by Thales & CEA-List, we had insightful discussions, reviewed our progress, and strategized for the final phase of the project. As we enter the last year of #SecOPERA, we are more motivated than ever to deliver impactful results. A big thank you to all partners for their collaboration and commitment! #PlenaryMeeting #SecOPERA #Collaboration #Innovation #EUFunded

??? SecOPERA Assets Demo Series! In this demo, we showcase how to generate a Python Extended Call Graph (PyCG) using static analysis. PyCG is a powerful tool that supports higher-order functions, complex class inheritance, automatic discovery of imported modules, and nested definitions, making it an essential resource for code analysis and cybersecurity. ?? Watch the full demo on our YouTube channel to see how PyCG can help you analyze Python code more efficiently: https://bit.ly/3WmWRxa #Cybersecurity #SecOPERA #TechDemo #OpenSource #CodeAnalysis #EUFunded
