Sectoral challenges
Financial
Increasing regulatory complexity, technological evolution and the constant threat of cyberattacks are three of the challenges facing the financial sector. These issues are compounded by global economic volatility, fluctuating interest rates and high competition from fintech companies. The ever-changing financial landscape requires rapid adaptation to remain relevant.
Pharmacist
Pharmaceutical companies collect and process a large amount of confidential health data, which, together with their powerful knowhow (clinical trials, patents, manufacturing processes, etc.), their extensive international distribution and strong regulation, require protection and compliance needs without precedents.

Insurer
The insurance sector is constantly evolving. Digitalization is requiring organizations to adapt nimbly while increasing threats are testing their resilience. Ever-changing regulations add an additional layer of complexity to security and privacy management. The increasing interconnectedness of systems, especially in the wake of multiple mergers, is expanding their attack surfaces.
Health
Hospitals, laboratories, pharmaceuticals, insurers, public and private healthcare, and all providers in the industry in general collect and process a large amount of sensitive healthcare data. Digitalization, the use of connected medical devices and the IoT are expanding the attack surface. Low level of patching, unsupported systems and the deployment of few security measures are allowing cyber criminals to exploit multiple vulnerabilities to steal personal data, disrupt services and even cause physical damage.
Energy
Organizations involved in the generation of green energy, fossil or nuclear origin, form the first stage of a process in which many other actors intervene to the refining, transportation, storage and commercialization of energy. The sector represents 2.5% of GDP and is currently one of the most cyber-attacked, mainly due to its importance as a critical infrastructure.
Industry
Chemical industries, metallurgy, waste and water management, or materials production and transformation plants are some of the industries that make up the sector. They represent the second block of Spain's GDP and, therefore, are also one of the most cyber-attacked sectors, receiving one in three cyberattacks. The slow digitization of the sector and the IoT are expanding the attack surface. Low level of patching, unsupported systems and the deployment of few security measures are allowing cybercrime to exploit multiple vulnerabilities to steal personal data, disrupt services and cause irreparable damage.
Telecommunications
The Telecommunications sector faces constant challenges in a dynamic and evolving environment. The rapid expansion of emerging technologies such as 5G, the demand for increasingly robust and expensive infrastructures and cybersecurity are at the center of concerns in a heavily regulated and fiercely competititve business.

Public administration
Our public administrations constantly face fundamental challenges to the security and stability of the country. After the pandemic and in a global war scenario, resilience is the key element for government entities to continue to fulfill their role as responsible for public well-being, protecting data and essential services provided to citizens.
Tourism
Tourism represents 11.9% of Spain's GDP and generates almost 2 million jobs. Its significant weight at national level is generating a growing interest in cybercrime, which sees in the sector an opportunity to commit to all kinds of fraud and extortion. Companies in the sector must be prepared to deal with the growing threats. Denials of service, ransomware, scams or spear phishing are some of the evolving challenges.
Construction
Construction accounts for 5% of Spain's GDP. The sector is made up of a multitude of companies of all sizes, from large construction companies with an international presence to small material manufacturers. These differences accentuate an obvious problem: the existence of thousands of small companies in the sector with little financial muscle and low investment in cybersecurity generates problems closely linked to the supply chain that drags down an entire sector that already faces extremely complex challenges.
Logistics
The Logistics and transport sector represents 7% of Spain's GDP, that is, about €100.000 million. The sector is made up of a multitude of companies of all sizes, from large transport companies with an international presence, to small transporters and self-employed workers. These differences accentuate an obvious problem: the existence of thousands of small companies in the sector with little financial muscle and low investment in cybersecurity generates problems closely linked to the supply chain that drags down the entire sector.
Retail
The retail sector is in a constant transformation process driven by the influence of e-commerce. The rapid evolution of technology has led to the need to implement innovative solutions, such as artificial intelligence and data analytics, to better understand consumer preferences and optimize inventory management. In this dynamic context, the attack surface of companies has continued to grow, increasing the likelihood of suffering a cyber incident.
Education
The education sector, whether private or public, faces a number of crucial challenges. Rapid technological evolution has raised the need to integrate digital tools and innovative methodologies into teaching processes to keep up with the changing demands of the labour market. The disparity in access to technology and connectivity has highlighted educational gaps, presenting a challenge to ensure equitable and accessible education for all. Furthermore, digitalization is also revealing the growth of the attack surface, thus increasing the chances of suffering a cyber incident.
Media
The media are immersed in an era of unprecedented challenges, where the rapid evolution of technology and transformations in information consumption patterns have created a complex scenario. The proliferation of social media has drastically altered the way news is distributed and consumed, creating challenges in verifying information. The economic sustainability of traditional media is threatened by the transition towards digital business models, with online advertising dominating the landscape and affecting the diversity of available information. On all these fronts, cybersecurity plays a key role.
