SafeCity facilitates, promotes and strengthens business in security, safety and information technology

The virtual doorways are large

A moving society requires a fresh look at safety. We need each other for this, because changes create new security issues that must be met with joint ingenuity. We know that we cannot solve the questions alone, but working together is not easy. Because every organization has nestled itself for the ambition they pursue. It is important that we still come out of the comfort zone for the safety of our society. Think not only of cyber-attacks on the website as above, where the current cyber-attacks are mapped. Think also about privacy, in dependence on the information received and thus can be abused, to the complexity which we no longer know who / what / where. The internet highway has brought us a lot and gives many possibilities but the vulnerability of social and economic security is great.

Secure your data environment

The real-time images below clearly indicate the need for this safety attention:

In the image link below you can see in real time which cyber attacks are currently underway, where, by whom, with what and at whom,

In the image link below you can see that data is stolen and misused every second.

Add to this that our world is connected by the "Internet of Things" (IoT), then the complexity of this digital security is very great. There is a great need for regulation in order to maintain confidence in all systems connected to the Internet. We humans navigate life through all these systems, so I advocate a broad, solid approach to internet security and also to curating information. The internet highway has given us a great deal and offers enormous opportunities, but the vulnerability to social and economic security is great.

Be digitally resilient

Hacking is an increasing way to steal money. Companies are completely paralyzed by hackers who have infiltrated computer systems for months. The hack is lifted in exchange for large sums of money. By 2023, 1.7 million ransomware attacks will be carried out per day, i.e. an attack every 19 seconds. And this is increasing due to the use of AI by criminals. The average cost to companies per attack is 1.8 million euros. The hackers gain access to computer systems in all kinds of ways, for example by cracking passwords (a 12-character password can now be hacked in 1 minute) or by bribing staff members who give the hacker access.
The hacks come from different countries, you can see a good overview via this google document.

A very good source of information with validated and controlled data about cyber crime is the website cybercrimeinfo.nl.

Online trustability

We very easily accept all kinds of inquiries on websites and apps. This makes it easier to browse and make more use of the functionalities. But you also sign that the supplier may use certain data from you and you do not know what exactly happens with it. In 2020, a study was started into the valuation of reliability, privacy and integrity of apps and IoT equipment. Appraisals can be provided through the CALLforTRUST website at:
