Another challenge lies in the rapid pace of technological advancement. With the introduction of new technologies and systems, vulnerabilities can emerge that hackers can exploit. Regularly updating systems and staying informed about the latest cybersecurity threats is, therefore, crucial.
Partnerships may also provide a solution. Collaborations between technology companies, cybersecurity firms, sporting organizations, and event venues can offer combined expertise to address these challenges. Microsoft itself has shown that collaboration can be effective by partnering with organizations during the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar.
