As AI technologies become increasingly integrated into business and public-sector operations, cybersecurity must become part of everyday organisational practice rather than being treated solely as a technical responsibility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">NITRO\u2019s participation in such discussions supports the project\u2019s mission to strengthen cybersecurity capabilities, awareness, skills development, and preparedness across Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A special thank you to ACCI\/EBEA for organising the panel and to all participants for the valuable exchange of perspectives on cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"641\" src=\"http:\/\/nitro-project.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/post-4-1024x641.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-2183\" srcset=\"http:\/\/nitro-project.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/post-4-1024x641.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/nitro-project.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/post-4-300x188.jpg 300w, http:\/\/nitro-project.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/post-4-768x481.jpg 768w, http:\/\/nitro-project.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/post-4-24x15.jpg 24w, http:\/\/nitro-project.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/post-4.jpg 1264w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The NITRO project was represented at the 90th Thessaloniki International Fair (TIF) during the panel \u201cCybersecurity in the Age of Artificial Intelligence\u201d, organised by the Athens Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ACCI\/EBEA).
