Level up your understanding of Europe’s digital challenges in this episode of “Cybersecurity shall be C-level priority!”.

Host Nico Freitag welcomes David Fuhr, Co-founder & CTO at intcube GmbH, for a bold and wide-ranging conversation on cybersecurity, scale, and sovereignty in Europe.

The discussion kicks off with the U.S. Treasury’s announcement to defund the CVE database – a seemingly niche move with wide-reaching impact. For David, this underscores the deep dependency European IT has on U.S. infrastructure and highlights why a scalable, autonomous security strategy is more critical than ever.

Topics explored include:

• Why security remains unmanageable for many mid-sized companies
• The illusion of control through certifications and paperwork
• How consultants and vendors sometimes solve the wrong problems
• The importance of building resilient, maintainable IT, not just adopting hype tools
• Why EU regulation like NIS 2 and CRA can help – but only if applied wisely
• The need for collaborative ecosystems instead of unicorn obsessions

David also unpacks why he doesn’t believe Europe needs “its own CrowdStrike” – and instead argues for a network of trusted, mid-sized, interoperable providers that reflect European values and resilience.

If you care about scaling cybersecurity, reducing dependencies, and enabling meaningful digital transformation, this episode is essential.
