"In 2024, the number of serious cyberattacks in Italy increased by over 15%. In this context, GenAI can play a crucial role in strengthening the cybersecurity posture of Public Administrations and companies.” stated Luigi Spoletini, Cyber Technology Leader at Engineering, during the panel “AI in Intelligence and Cybersecurity: Opportunities and Risks” whcih took place at CyberSec2025, a key event for cybersecurity and digital resilience organized by Cybersecurity Italia.

“Generative Artificial Intelligence can provide public and private organizations with advanced insights and automation, both in risk prevention and in incident management and resolution. However, the value of GenAI does not lie in replacing humans but in enhancing their capabilities, as it is the intervention of cybersecurity specialists that ensures the indispensable quality needed for mindful, ethical, and conscious decision-making,” continued the Cyber Technology Leader at Engineering, leading company in digital transformation led by Maximo Ibarra.

“Through Eng Security, the Engineering Group brings together over 300 cybersecurity experts and a state-of-the-art SOC, which, also thanks to the introduction of GenAI, accelerates risk analysis, anticipates attacks through advanced simulations, and suggests targeted, data-driven actions. In incident management, GenAI supports us in filtering out false positives and reduces the 'background noise' that slows down operations. We deploy a hybrid intelligence model that synergistically combines AI with human expertise, ensuring constant monitoring and a swift response to cyber threats.”
