The conference highlighted critical global challenges in AI security, supply chain assurance through Software Bill of Materials (SBOM), and the regulatory landscape for EU digital wallets. Key discussions addressed the transition from 5G to 6G, the adoption of quantum-safe cryptography demonstrated by NIST, and the necessity of embedding security into IoT devices before market entry. Sessions also focused on protecting vulnerable populations from online threats, managing legacy systems, and defining reasonable cybersecurity standards amidst evolving fraud and impersonation risks. These dialogues aim to guide future ETSI standardization priorities to ensure the security of next-generation networks and critical communications infrastructure.
