Cyber attacks are happening every day across Europe — often thousands of times per minute. But how serious is the threat? And how prepared is Europe to deal with it?
In this episode of Eastern Frontline, Latvian MEP Reinis Pozņaks and Estonian MEP Jaak Madison are joined by Juhan Lepassaar, Executive Director of the EU Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA).
They discuss how cyber threats are evolving, why artificial intelligence is making attacks more sophisticated, and why Europe’s digital economy was never designed with security in mind.
The conversation explores the growing role of state-backed cyber actors, the vulnerabilities in global technology supply chains, and the challenge of building resilience across Europe’s critical infrastructure, from energy networks to hospitals.
They also examine what governments, businesses and citizens can do to protect themselves in an era where cyber attacks are no longer exceptional events, but part of everyday geopolitical competition.
