On April 1, 2025, the VII financial forum "Prosto Capital", organized by PSB, will take place. The event, which has been held since 2020, will bring together representatives of government bodies, corporate sector leaders, and renowned economists to discuss the most pressing issues of the modern economy.

This year, the main emphasis will be on discussing the digital ruble, supporting small and medium-sized businesses, future prospects for digital financial assets, and the role of economic ecosystems. Special attention will be paid to methods of countering fraud in a changing economic landscape.

An equally important topic of the forum will be a session on cybersecurity, which is becoming increasingly important in 2025. With the growth of cyberattacks, the number of which has doubled on Russian companies in 2024 compared to the previous year, the protection of information systems is coming to the fore.

The session "How Companies Can Protect Themselves from Cyber Threats" will be devoted to modern trends in cyberattacks and the use of artificial intelligence in cybersecurity. Experts will discuss whether artificial intelligence is a panacea or just a tool in the fight against threats. Strategies for increasing business resilience and developing digital competencies of employees will also be considered, which is especially important in the current geopolitical situation and vulnerabilities of domestic software.

The "Prosto Capital" forum promises to become a platform for the exchange of knowledge and experience that will help business and government respond more effectively to the challenges of our time.

That is why users expect predictability from software-defined storage rather than just new features—ensuring background processes finish what they started, and administrators can see the cluster status not only “right now,” but also over time.
