A national gathering on the future of cybersecurity
The conference brings together European and national institutional representatives, businesses and experts to address major cybersecurity challenges: cooperation between countries and organisations, skills and talent development, business resilience, and the impact of emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and quantum computing.
Our roundtable: capabilities, talent and resilience
The business challenge session will discuss how companies approach cybersecurity, focusing on talent needs, skills development and resilience, while recognising the different realities of large companies and SMEs. Participants:
- Marcos Gómez, CISO and Deputy Director of Corporate Security, INCIBE.
- David Garriga, CEO, Sirt.
- David Forner, head of the Cross-cutting Product Unit, Agència de Ciberseguretat de Catalunya.
- Jordi Ubach, head of cybersecurity and quantum computing consulting services at Cybertix.
- Javier Zubieta, chair of AMETIC’s Cybersecurity Commission, as moderator.
What we want to bring to the table: the SME perspective
SMEs are absent from many cybersecurity conversations, yet they have the most to gain. Our experience with companies of all sizes and Jordi’s leadership of our cybersecurity and quantum computing consultancy lead us to advocate four ideas:
- Talent is not just about hiring experts: it also means training all employees and management continuously and measurably, and opening pathways for more professionals to enter the sector. We do this with CYBERFORGE and our university courses and microcredentials with UPV/EHU.
- Resilience needs practice: a response plan that has never been tested is not a plan. Cyber exercises turn theory into real capability.
- Security must be simple: an SME cannot manage ten tools. That is why we support managed services with a single console and a 24×7 SOC.
- Regulation and emerging technology must be manageable at an SME’s scale. NIS2, ENS, CRA and the AI Act, as well as quantum readiness, require practical support. We provide it through compliance and secure AI services and cybersecurity and post-quantum cryptography consulting.
An active role in the ecosystem
Taking part in this conference reflects what Cybertix does every day: helping build Spain’s cybersecurity ecosystem and bringing the realities of SMEs to European forums.
- Spanish ambassadors of CyberHubs, the EU co-funded European network of cybersecurity competence centres, with which we work continuously.
- Collaboration with European cybersecurity agencies and an active presence in the Basque ecosystem.
- A 24×7 SOC integrated into the CCN-CERT National SOC Network as a provider.
- The Cybersecurity Made in Europe label.
- University training with UPV/EHU, renewed for a second year.
- Participation in major sector events such as 20ENISE, where we presented “From tests to exercises: people ready before a crisis”.
- Industry recognition: the Product, Service or System Trophy at Red Seguridad’s 2026 ICT Security Awards for All-in-One SOC Pyme.
