The interview features Ángel López, founder of Sofistic, discussing the multifaceted landscape of cybersecurity. López emphasizes the critical need for a strong cybersecurity culture within organizations, noting that many current issues could be mitigated with better internal practices, even among adults. He highlights Sofistic's specialization in the banking and critical infrastructure sectors, a strategic shift initiated because other companies were not yet aware of their cyber risks. The discussion also covers key findings from Sofistic's 2024 cybersecurity report, including a reduction in critical alerts but an increase in low and medium-level ones, and a surprising decrease in weekend attacks, possibly due to reduced exposed surface area. The role of Artificial Intelligence in both cyberattacks and defenses is explored, with López advocating for its essential use in defensive strategies due to attackers' advanced deployment. Finally, the conversation touches upon Spain's position in the global cybersecurity market, stressing the importance of promoting Spanish talent and products, and the challenges of internationalization, particularly in the US market, due to perceived quality differences and a lack of investment and institutional support.
