Ibercaja, with GMV’s collaboration, held in Seville an educational and awareness-raising session on one of today’s hottest topics: cybersecurity. National security experts looked at the key factors in heading off any cyberattacks and the main consequences of cybercrime in companies.

GMV, as a trend-setting cybersecurity firm, took part in the panel discussion, with the intervention of Javier Zubieta, Cybersecurity Business Development Manager at GMV Secure e-Solutions. His intervention revolved around the current state of cybersecurity activities in an organization’s various corporate departments. This is essential for companies to build up an across-the-board awareness, since cybersecurity is not the sole problem of any company’s IT department but rather affects the firm as a whole.

The panel discussion stressed the importance of cybersecurity in business models to avoid data-protection vulnerabilities. The experts also analyzed companies’ habitual practices and the ways of minimizing the impact of cyberattacks.
