Modern city management requires tools capable of integrating heterogeneous data from different sources into a single platform: mobility, environment, risks, infrastructure, quality of life. The Municipality of Bari, through the project “House of Emerging Technologies \u2013 Bari Open Innovation Hub (CTE BARI)”,<\/strong> has launched an innovation path oriented towards the digital transformation of the territory, with the aim of improving urban monitoring and supporting strategic decisions based on data. <\/p>\n

In this context, TIM Urban Genius<\/strong> was born, the new integrated platform for the management of urban data, developed by TIM Enterprise and officially presented on 10 December 2025<\/strong> at Porta Futuro Bari<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

ESA’s CyberSecurity Needs<\/h2>\n

While the data provided through the Copernicus programme is “free and open”, it remains extremely important to ensure the integrity and availability of information to support the services offered through the Copernicus Services, including Emergency and Security. Given its strategic nature, the programme must ensure its resilience to any cyber threats that could compromise its functionality and reliability. <\/p>\n

In this context, within the Copernicus programme, a fundamental role is played by the Coordination Service, a central point for the management and monitoring of the performance of the services of the ESA Operations Framework (EOF) of the Copernicus Space Component (CSC): currently EOF-CSC consists of about 25 services with different purposes and functions such as Data Processing, Data Quality, Data Dissemination, Data Long Term Archiving, and other services necessary for the satellite data processing chain; the Coordination Service includes all the activities necessary to ensure the correct orchestration of operations between the multiple services by monitoring the overall performance of the associated operations.<\/p>\n

Security objectives of the Coordination Service<\/h2>\n

At the end of 2024, Serco Italia was awarded a tender, as Prime Contractor, for the supply of services on the Coordination Service for a duration of 40 months for the end customer ESA, entrusting all CyberSecurity activities to Exprivia.<\/p>\n

Specifically, starting from January 2025, Exprivia is dealing with:<\/p>\n
