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.

Qatar is an Arab nation located in the Persian Gulf with a rapidly growing economy. It has been the focus of numerous cybersecurity conferences and events as it has continued to expand its use of technology and digital infrastructure. As Qatar continues to position itself as a leader in the MENA region, cyber threats have become increasingly problematic. Thus, cybersecurity has become a priority for the authorities in Qatar.

Qatari security forces have invested significantly in educational programs and general awareness campaigns to increase public understanding of cyber threats and how to protect against them. A range of cyber awareness apps have been developed to help users identify malicious websites, check for malicious content, and promote safe digital practices.

Cybersecurity events in Qatar are typically government-led or industry-sponsored and focus on regional and global trends in cybersecurity. These events serve as a platform for the exchange of knowledge, information, and practices related to the management of cybersecurity risk. Such conferences have featured speakers from a range of industries, who share their experiences in handling global cybersecurity threats. The Qatar Information Security Forum, held every two years, is one of the biggest and most comprehensive cybersecurity events in Qatar.

Share Qatar, an initiative organized by Qatar’s National Cyber Security Research and Development Center is a platform for sharing best practices related to cybersecurity and IT Security. This private sector-focused event provides numerous opportunities for participants to learn more about cybersecurity and IT Security in Qatar, such as technical training sessions, strategy development, and information sharing.

To address cyber threats in Qatar, the government has taken steps to heighten security measures and strengthen regulations. For example, the Qatar Cyber Security Law was passed in August 2019 to standardize national cyber security approaches and strengthen existing operational systems. It will also help Qatar comply with the standards issued by the International Telecommunications Union (ITU) as well as regional and international cyber security norms.

Overall, Qatar’s growing commitment to cybersecurity has made it an attractive destination for conferences and events focused on cybersecurity, IT Security, and information security. Qatar is making strong progress in its efforts to develop an advanced cybersecurity framework that meets the needs and safety of the nation’s digital infrastructure.
