Information and Communications technologies have revolutionized our way of life and have driven economic and industrial development to the point where we have become highly dependent on cyberspace. Our way of communicating, interacting, pursuing education and even how we purchase items has been transformed with the growing penetration of digitalization which has changed our habits and behaviors. These digital transformation processes have also impacted the public and private sector, to such an extent that any productive process or public service for citizens cannot be conceived without an intensive use of technologies.
While this scenario creates great opportunities for the economy, industry and society, it is not without new risks and threats. Cyberspace has become a great interest area for criminals and terrorists who can take advantage of the anonymity provided by the Internet and the lack of homogeneity in national and international laws, to act with impunity.
