In mid-January 2025, the AIPSI's OAD 2025 initiative started, which with this edition reaches the 18th consecutive year of online surveys into intentional digital attacks on companies and public bodies in Italy, with the drafting of the activity plan, sponsorship and free patronage proposals, and the first contacts with potential sponsors.
As with all previous editions, Malabo and Marco R. A. Bozzetti will be the creators.
AIPSI requests free patronage from all non-profit associations/entities in order to extend, through their members and interlocutors, the pool of potential respondents to the online questionnaire and subsequently readers of the final OAD report.
Sponsorships are requested and necessary in order to repay, at least in part, all the professional activities that AIPSI must carry out.
The request for collaboration, now traditional, with the Italian Postal Police and Cybersecurity Service is also underway, in order to have access to their data on cybercrime, which will form the basis of a specific chapter in the 2024 OAD Final Report. In addition to the Postal Police, AICA and FIDAInform will actively collaborate on the initiative.
Also for the 2025 edition, the OAD Report will have prefaces by well-known players in the Italian digital security scene, such as representatives of the most important Italian institutions. Prefaces are expected from the Director of the Italian Postal Police and Cyber Security, and from the Department of Digital Transformation of the Presidency of the Council of Ministers, already had in 2024.
AIPSI will try to have prefaces also from ACN, AIGID and/or other national institutions involved in digital security. These prefaces are essential for the recognition of the authoritativeness and validity of the OAD survey and Report, and thus help its dissemination especially in Italian Public Administrations and institutional offices.
The work plan, detailed in the attachments, provides for the publication of the OAD 2025 Report by the end of July 2025, provided that by the end of May - early June 2025 the number of online questionnaire compilations exceeds the minimum number necessary for an anonymous web survey to be reliable and significant.
