A roundtable discussion was also held, during which experts on internet fraud discussed the most common types of online scams and the most effective ways to protect against them.
The roundtable concluded that online scams are becoming increasingly sophisticated, targeting a growing number of people through manipulation in order to obtain their personal data. At the same time, classic hacker attacks on infrastructure have not disappeared. The European Union has recognized this threat and issued a directive to member states to raise the level of cybersecurity.
