Cybersecurity at a Crossroads:
Navigating Complexity

Cybersecurity has never been more critical, nor more complex. As the threat landscape evolves and technology becomes more sophisticated, organizations face major challenges. In this episode of CyberTalk, we take the World Economic Forum’s Global Cybersecurity Outlook 2025 report as a starting point and discuss the most critical cybersecurity issues today.

The program is hosted by NetNordic’s Jonas Åström, who leads the conversation with the guests in the studio couch, where expert insights and experience exchange are in focus.
