Piattaforma per la sicurezza informatica per il comparto turistico: dalla prospettiva nazionale all'azione reale. Focus sulle strutture ricettive

Every company operating in the market should take preventive measures in terms of IT security. The national bodies of the most advanced countries are aware of the problems related to cyber security issues and have developed technical and legislative protocols in order to mitigate the impact and frequency of cyber attacks. Despite these efforts, the risks are still high. This is because the proposed frameworks are often complex and difficult to adopt for companies and smaller organizations. Greater complexity is evident in the implementation of good cyber protection and prevention practices in the tourism sector. In particular, there are problems of prevention for accommodation facilities, characterized by seasonal workflows and intense peaks of activity. The paper aims to resume and readjust the national framework for cyber security to seasonality, typical of the Italian tourism sector, with the aim of redesigning the framework of IT protection, making it more effective and feasible in the micro-enterprise involved in receptivity, ensuring greater competitiveness of the territories with a strong touristic vocation.
