  • The European Maze โ€“ NIS2, the CRA, the AI Act and the New Machinery Regulation: What Is Really Changing and How to Navigate It

    The European Maze โ€“ NIS2, the CRA, the AI Act and the New Machinery Regulation: What Is Really Changing and How to Navigate It

    UPDATE ยท AUGUST 2026

    The AI Act timeline originally described in this article has been amended by the AI Digital Omnibus, Regulation (EU) 2026/1744, published in the Official Journal on 24 July 2026 and in force since 27 July. From 2 August 2026, the transparency obligations under Article 50 apply, and governance and enforcement are fully operational. The obligations for high-risk systems, however, have been postponed to 2 December 2027 (Annex III) and 2 August 2028 (systems integrated into products covered by Annex I, machinery included). The text below has been updated accordingly.

    In an increasingly unstable and fastโ€‘evolving geopolitical landscape, the data confirms a clear trend: the European Union is becoming an ever more frequent target of cyberattacks. In 2025, DDoS attacks across Europe increased by 75%, highlighting persistent and critical pressure on essential infrastructures. (source: here)
    In parallel, a record average of 443 dataโ€‘breach notifications per day was reported, marking a 22% increase compared to the previous year. (source: here)

    This trend is not new, and it is no coincidence that in recent years the European Union has developed a series of regulations and directives that will become fully applicable between 2026 and 2028. This new regulatory framework stems from the need to ensure strategic internal security, to protect European citizens and to strengthen the resilience of Europeanโ€‘made products. It is a real and necessary objective โ€” yet navigating this regulatory and certification maze can be complex and challenging. The main risk is losing orientation. Companies risk becoming blinded to the opportunities ahead of them: improved security (and therefore reduced economic losses due to cyberattacks) or the potential competitive advantage inherent in achieving CE conformity โ€” a mark that signals a level of quality and maturity that is almost unmatched globally when it comes to safety and data protection.

    The challenges to overcome in this maze are the NIS2 Directive, the Cyber Resilience Act, the AI Act and the new Machinery Regulation. In this article, we will untangle their complexity and provide a practical map and an immediate, usable interpretation framework.

  • Technological revolution or evolution in research? AI is changing the world.

    Technological revolution or evolution in research? AI is changing the world.

    As of 2025, the conscious or unconscious use of artificial intelligence has become common. AI agents assist with research, content creation, and the editing of videos, images, and texts, and are deeply integrated into the technological and digital tools we use for work, study, or entertainment. This represents a true exponential growth of interest from the global public, as revealed by Google search trends on the topic of “Artificial Intelligence.”

    From the timeline chart, we can observe the turning point in public interest in November 2022, linked to the public launch of ChatGPT (November 30, 2022), an OpenAI product based on GPT-3.5.

    Google Trend for the topic “Artificial Intelligence.”

    Map of interest in the topic “Artificial Intelligence” by region. Countries with low search volumes are excluded.

    The geographic map, on the other hand, offers some surprises. On one hand, it confirms China at the top of the ranking for interest and South Korea on the podium, as one might expect from two countries recognized as technological and innovative hubs. On the other hand, the absence of the U.S. among the top five countries and Ethiopiaโ€™s second-place position is surprising.

    Ethiopiaโ€™s second-place ranking is due to a combination of two factors:

    • A lower absolute search volume, which causes viral topics to achieve a relatively high score;
    • The Ethiopian governmentโ€™s push for AI innovation, including organizing PanAfriCon AI 2022โ€”the first pan-African AI conference held in October 2022โ€”and subsequent official steps, such as approving a national AI strategy supported by the Ethiopian Artificial Intelligence Institute, established in 2024.

    These data confirm the significance and impact AI has had and continues to have in the contemporary world. But what exactly is Artificial Intelligence? How and when did it develop? And what are its real impacts on todayโ€™s society? Letโ€™s explore it together!
