Croatia is becoming increasingly focused on improving its cybersecurity and IT security practices. Croatia is seeing an increased focus on cyber education and research in the public, private, and educational sectors. The challenge for Cybersecurity is that Croatia is vulnerable to hackers and cybercriminals due to a lack of resources and capacity.
The Croatian government is committed to boosting IT security. In 2016, the government passed the Cyber Security and Critical Infrastructure Protection Law, which established the National Cyber Security Protection System and Cyber Security Center. The government is also working to establish national standards and regulations for IT security.
In response to the increasing need for cybersecurity, Croatia has hosted several cyber conferences and events to discuss and promote cybersecurity topics. The annual Croatian Security Conference (CroSec) is held in Zagreb and focuses on information security. The Croatian Information Security Conference also takes place in Zagreb and focuses on IT security topics. Additionally, the Croatia Information Security Summit (CROSTIS) takes place in Zagreb and covers topics related to IT and cyber security.
The Croatian government is taking steps to ensure the security of the country's digital infrastructure. The Ministry of Science and Education launched the National Cyber Security Initiative, which provides resources to educate the public and teach cybersecurity best practices. Additionally, the government has established several cybersecurity research centers and programs focused on researching and developing new IT security strategies.
Cybersecurity in Italy has recently become more of an issue due to the country’s rapidly developing digital landscape and increasing cyber threats. The Italian government, private cybersecurity companies, and universities are all responding with initiatives to improve their digital security.
Cybersecurity is becoming an increasingly popular topic in the Italian media and within academia, and there are several events and conferences to help advance the understanding and practice of IT security. The European Forum on Cybersecurity (EFCS) is the largest annual cybersecurity event in Italy, which brings together experts, practitioners, and researchers from around the world for a series of discussions and lectures.
The Italian government has established several data security initiatives, such as the National Data Security Plan which guides the state’s efforts in protecting sensitive data and reducing cyber threats. There are also several organizations dedicated to cyber protection, such as the Italian Agency for Digital Security (AICS). The agency provides research and certifications for products and processes that meet IT security goals.

Red Hot Cyber Conference 2022 is the annual event created by the RHC community to raise interest and awareness toward cybersecurity and digital technologies. Each year, a conference is organized to cover the topics of technology, innovation and cybersecurity. For us at RHC, this is an important milestone. It is the fruit of the synergy created with many people and companies built after years of news about technology and cybersecurity and the result of previous editions. All these activities have allowed us, always in line with our Manifesto, to increase cyber awareness in many people and organizations, who maybe skeptical or far from the world of computers, have slowly developed their own culture and increased their awareness to cyber risk.
