Leonardo, what the former Finmeccanica will do about smart working
Leonardo will review its working models but will not go towards permanent smart working. All the details on the plans of the former Finmeccanica group in the words of Profumo
Leonardo will review its working models but will not go towards permanent smart working. To explain it, in a meeting on the subject at the Rimini Meeting, the CEO of Leonardo, Alessandro Profumo: "We understood that it will be essential not to have people permanently working remotely, so we will equip ourselves to have a temporary smart working mode ”Said the company head of the group active in aerospace and defense.
BETWEEN SMART WORKING AND HOME WORKING IN LEONARDO
"It will mean radically changing our entire office layout, we calculated that about 30% less space will be needed", added Leonardo's CEO, who prefers to talk about home working: "Before becoming smart you need change the work processes ”, he concluded.
THE DANGERS OF SMART WORKING FOR SAFETY ACCORDING TO LEONARDO'S PERFUME
Smart working "dramatically increases the digital security risks, because the attackable surface increases in a frightening way", said Leonardo's CEO, Alessandro Profumo, during a debate at the Rimini Meeting. Speaking of the technological implementations connected to smart working, and the need to modify work processes to allow remote interaction, Leonardo's number one returns several times to the topic of cyber security: "We are talking about remote connections of our people, all these connections are potential areas of attack by malicious subjects 'and from this point of view it is crucial' to have systems that allow to be designed as safe from a structural point of view ”. For this, concludes Profumo, 'there are many small elements that must be considered and become relevant. The number of attacks in this period has grown enormously, even large companies have had attacks, but it is obvious that we must try to avoid them because this puts us all at risk ”.
LEONARDO AIMS TO DIGITAL
Leonardo is "investing heavily in digital technology", both through the creation of some laboratories and, for example, by collaborating with Anci, the national association of Italian municipalities. It was Profumo himself who remembered him at the Meeting. The Leonardo Labs will be “seven laboratories that will be focused on different themes” from big data to new materials for aeronautics. The group is also working with Anci "to provide services to small municipalities, which allow them to have standard platforms that are secure from an IT point of view but also close to the ability of citizens to be able to use them", concluded the head of the former Finmeccanica group. .
