What they say about us

Lots of people don’t have enough awareness about the technologies they use on a daily basis. Many companies don’t realise the impacts of not having proper Cybersecurity solutions against spam emails and phishing. While technical skills are essential for tackling threats, people are often the weakest link in the company and need soft skills. - Giorgio, University of Pisa Student
