Fronteras Críticas

Fronteras Críticas brings cybersecurity professionals from banking and critical infrastructure together to work through how threats get identified, analyzed, and stopped before they reach sensitive systems. Expect live demonstrations, current malware research, and practitioner insight on protecting information flows without compromising operational needs.
