Cybersecurity Day 2026
This year’s Cybersecurity Day 2026 theme is SMEs at the Forefront: Hybrid Influence and Cyber Resilience.
During the event, you will hear from SMEs about how they identify and anticipate cyber and hybrid threats, and how they strengthen their operational resilience. At the same time, there will be discussions about the role of SMEs in national security and continuity. The changing security landscape challenges businesses to evaluate what risks they should particularly prepare for in the future. These themes will be examined from both cyber threat and hybrid threat perspectives. Funding opportunities that support SMEs in preparedness, risk assessments, and other development actions will also be presented.
