Prisma supports the development of new cyber talents
On Friday, 1 November, the final of the largest ethical hacking event in the Nordic and Baltic countries took place – Telia Cyber Battle of Nordic-Baltics 2024. The final was won by ethical hackers from Sweden, and the best Estonian team finished third.
Prisma supported the young cyber specialists participating in the spectacular competition by providing salads, sandwiches, juices, and snacks. "The development of young cyber talents is very important to Prisma because the daily life in retail depends very much on the security and proper functioning of various information systems. With the help of young people with excellent cyber skills, our future will be more stable and economically more successful," said Kertu Kärk, Head of Communications at Prisma.
"I was particularly glad to see several girls taking part in the competition. Cybersecurity has so far been considered a very male-centric field, but hopefully, this is changing. The more girls and women dive into this field, the more people there will be to fight cyber threats and stand up for our security," Kärk added.
The Telia Cyber Battle of Nordic-Baltics is organised by the Estonian cyber education start-up CTF Tech in cooperation with title sponsor Telia and the Nordic Council of Ministers' Office in Estonia.
