In this Cyber Story, Truesec Studio host Petter Fahlström sits down with Truesec founder Marcus Murray and Gävle Municipality’s IT Security Manager Peter Lundquist to explore the cybersecurity challenges facing Sweden’s municipalities. Together, they discuss how local governments protect critical services, from schools and elderly care to water, energy, and public trust.
The conversation covers ransomware, geopolitical threats, disinformation, AI, and incident response, while highlighting the need for stronger security culture, collaboration, and preparedness. With limited resources and growing risks, cybersecurity is no longer just an IT issue. It’s a societal responsibility.
