A Cyber Security Expert, Linux Enterprise Specialist and recurring LPI author, Bertulli examines how lock-in, loss of in-house skills, poor interoperability and hard-to-replace dependencies turn into real risk factors for individuals and organisations alike, and what role Linux, free software, open standards and internal skills development can play in building more autonomous and resilient ecosystems.<\/p>\n<p>In the run-up to Linux Day, on <strong>14 October<\/strong> the Sapienza University of Rome hosts <em>&#8220;Sovranit\u00e0 Digitale: Etica, Sostenibilit\u00e0 e Indipendenza nel Software Libero&#8221;<\/em>, organised with Sapienza Students Network. The programme includes <strong>Moreno Razzoli (morrolinux)<\/strong>, LPI blogger, on self-hosting and self-managed alternatives to proprietary cloud services, alongside talks on extending the life of older hardware with Linux and on contributing to large international free software communities.
