The Internet can be compared to our climate: it is everyone’s property, and thereby at the same time no one’s property. But as well as with our climate, it is everyone’s responsibility to secure our digital environment. Recently, an interview on cyber security and data with Dick Berlijn (senior advisor) at Deloitte, HSD Premium partner, has been published.
