The critical infrastructure market is undergoing significant change, marked by accelerated adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) and intensified cyber threats, particularly from state powers such as China and Russia.

Companies must navigate between technological innovation and data protection to ensure the resilience of their critical infrastructure.
