Preview: Sicurezza 2025
The training programme of Sicurezza 2025 will span three themed days — Cyber Day, Security Day, and Job in Security — offering a comprehensive journey through European regulations, tailored solutions, and opportunities for training and employment.
From 19 to 21 November 2025 at Fiera Milano, Sicurezza, one the leading international trade show in Europe for the security and fire safety sectors, will unveil a new content structure, organised into three vertical, theme-focused days: Cyber Day, Security Day, and Job in Security. This strategic approach is designed to offer professionals in the field customised insights aligned with the sector’s regulatory, operational, and career-related challenges.
Sessions will primarily take place in the Cyber & Security Arena, the exhibition’s core venue for education and industry updates. Complementing this will be the Security Talks, a secondary forum hosted by major Italian security associations — AISS, AIPS, ANIE Sicurezza, and Confedersicurezza — which will provide critical insights into regulatory developments and focus areas such as security, surveillance, and fire prevention.
Through conferences, workshops, and short talks involving experts, stakeholders, trade associations, and institutions, Sicurezza 2025 aims to be a platform for knowledge-sharing and strategic development, addressing key challenges: from the impact of new EU directives (NIS2, CER, CRA), to the evolution of solutions for complex environments, to the training of the next generation of security professionals.
“Sicurezza 2025 is not just an international trade show,”- said Paola Sarco, Head of Building & Industrial Exhibitions at Fiera Milano - “but a true meeting point between innovation, training, and strategic development for the entire security industry. In a constantly evolving regulatory landscape, and amid increasingly complex operational challenges, the event remains a crucial opportunity for dialogue between businesses, institutions, and professionals. The new vertical structure, the focus on younger generations, and the emphasis on tailored solutions make this edition a practical platform to help shape the future of the industry. Being part of MIBA further expands its reach, turning Fiera Milano into a global innovation lab for the security of tomorrow.”
November 19th – Cyber Day
The programme kicks off with Cyber Day, a full day dedicated to digital security — at a time when the boundary between physical and digital security is increasingly blurred, and cyber threats are growing in both scale and complexity.
The discussion will focus on the new EU directives — NIS2, CER, and CRA — which serve as fundamental pillars of a common European strategy to enhance resilience and protect networks, IT systems, and essential services.
A key message will be the recognition of cybersecurity as a strategic asset, to be embedded across all organisational layers rather than treated as a purely technical element. Advanced approaches such as the Zero Trust model will be in the spotlight, along with the need to secure the entire supply chain — through strong governance and effective collaboration between companies and suppliers.
November 20th – Security Day
The second day will be dedicated to Security Day, shifting the focus to applied solutions in high-risk or operationally complex settings. From banking to retail, transport infrastructure to major international events — such as the upcoming Milano-Cortina 2026 Olympic Winter Games — and the protection of cultural heritage, the programme will explore tools and methodologies to ensure physical security in high-exposure environments.
Topics will include the integration of smart technologies, advanced access control, intelligent video surveillance, and risk management — and how this synergy is key to operational continuity and user trust. New professional roles emerging in the market will also be discussed, such as Travel Security Managers and Cultural Security Managers, who combine technical, organisational, and regulatory expertise in their respective fields.The takeaway is clear: security today is no longer one-size-fits-all. It must be tailored to the specific context and objectives it aims to serve.
November 21st – Job in Security
The final day will be Job in Security, with a focus on the future of the industry and its next generation of professionals. Designed for young people and those looking to start or transition into a security career, the event will highlight the many opportunities available in the field today.
According to recent industry data, a lack of qualified personnel is one of the most pressing issues facing companies. In Italy alone, the cybersecurity sector is short more than 100,000 professionals (source: Censis), and demand continues to grow for installation technicians, system integrators, and compliance specialists.
The security sector now offers diverse and concrete career paths for young people: from cutting-edge technological areas such as cybersecurity and intelligent system integration, to operational and managerial roles related to physical protection, access control, and critical infrastructure management.
This final day is a real opportunity to explore emerging professions in the security space and build a path in a dynamic industry that blends innovation, responsibility, and long-term prospects.
