MIAMI, LONDON
and TORONTO, Oct. 7, 2024
/CNW/ - Jacques Villeneuve, former
Formula 1 World Champion and current F4 team owner, announced today
the strategic partnership with Daniel
Tobok, CEO of CYPFER, as Chief Cyber Intelligence Advisor
for Villeneuve's racing teams.
"The integration of advanced technology in motorsports demands
equally advanced cybersecurity measures," says Daniel Tobok, CEO of CYPFER. "With Jacques Villeneuve's teams pushing the limits of
innovation, we are dedicated to protecting their digital
infrastructure, ensuring data integrity, and maintaining
competitive advantage," states Tobok.
The motorsports industry is increasingly reliant on digital
technology, from car telemetry to race strategy simulations.
According to a report by Cybersecurity Ventures, the cybercrime
epidemic is predicted to cost the world $10.5 trillion annually by 2025, with the sports
sector being a significant target due to its high-profile nature
and valuable data.
"Racing at the highest levels requires not only physical and
mechanical excellence but also digital security," says Jacques Villeneuve. "Partnering with CYPFER
gives us the confidence that our sensitive data, from race
strategies to telemetry, is secure from cyber threats. This
collaboration is a crucial part of our commitment to our core
mission: winning races and pushing the boundaries of what's
possible in motorsports," concludes Villeneuve.
"Entering the world of motorsports with Jacques Villeneuve is an exciting milestone for
CYPFER," shares Tobok. "Jacques' legacy in racing and his
forward-thinking approach make him an ideal collaborator. We are
ready to safeguard his teams' digital assets and contribute to
their continued success," concludes Tobok.
