en.Wedoany.com Reported - Italian Minister for Civil Protection and Maritime Policies, Nello Musumeci, visited Open Fiber's Security Operations Center (SOC) at its Rome headquarters today. Open Fiber management welcomed Musumeci, and the two sides discussed the role of fiber optic infrastructure in supporting territorial monitoring, risk prevention, and emergency management.

During the visit, Open Fiber showcased the main solutions it has developed in the field of fiber optic sensing. This technology uses fiber optic infrastructure as distributed sensors capable of detecting environmental and infrastructure phenomena.

The meeting also featured several technical demonstrations, including the use of a quadruped robot for monitoring and security activities, as well as an immersive reality application related to the digital twin project of the city of Pitigliano. These demonstrations showed that next-generation networks can support smart cities and innovative tools for territorial protection.

Open Fiber emphasized that its FTTH fiber optic network, connecting over 17 million homes nationwide, is not only a connectivity network but also a technology platform. This platform enables new solutions for data collection, processing, and sharing for prevention and emergency management, thanks to integration with edge computing and artificial intelligence.

The visit was part of an institutional dialogue on how digital infrastructure can contribute to territorial security and strengthen risk response capabilities.
