Sao Paulo, May 14, 2019 - Trust and transparency are essential words for the market, especially with regard to virtual fields. The online market is still a space that generates mistrust, so legal organizations are looking for new regulations and requirements so that companies can comply and demonstrate to the consumer that their shared personal data is safe. With the Covid-19 pandemic, the major changes in the routine of the Brazilian population, whether in studies, in the way of working or even in consumption habits, significantly increased the use of technological solutions and data flow circulating over the internet. However, it is necessary to pay attention to the security of networks: with greater digital use, there is also an increase in fraud.

In order to bring more reflections on the subject, the Brazilian Association of Software Companies (ABES) invites professionals from the market to discuss the topic and resolve doubts involving cybersecurity.
