Every economy of an advanced nation relies on information systems and interconnected networks, thus in order to ensure the prosperity of a nation, it’s then mandatory to make the cyberspace a safe place.
The Cybersecurity National Lab values the Italian research in this field thanks to an organization based on working groups which aim to promote and improve this activity on a national level together with the main stakeholder, in order to let it become a basic national benchmark and to create new chances of multidisciplinary research.

The Artificial Intelligence, in its modern, multidisciplinary meaning, is considered the most strategic and disruptive technology of the XXI century.
Following the most recent European statements, today the AI can be defined as “the theory and the development of the information technology capable of performing tasks that would require the human intelligence, such as the visual perception, the vocal recognition, the decisional process and the language translation”. In that same recent European statement “AI for Europe” the AI, compared for strategic strength to the electricity of the XIX century, is referred to the systems showing an “intelligent behaviour”, analysing the environment and taking decisions with a certain degree of autonomy.
