Steer Your Ship Through Uncertainty and Change
To open the day, Steer Your Ship through Uncertainty and Change will equip you as CISOs with the strategies and behaviours you need to navigate through the headwinds of change and uncertainty, by developing brilliant, resilient people.
Protecting Your VIPs and Your VAPs (Very Attacked People)
For years, we’ve seen attackers target organisations via their people. Now with fewer reliable exploits and more cloud adoption, we’re also seeing a shift toward attacks that exploit people, with threat actors tricking their targets into running their malware for them, handing over their credentials or simply sending data or money to an impostor. Nikki Cosgrove of Proofpoint will outline strategies for gaining visibility and mitigating risk in a people-centric threat landscape.
Join to learn:
- Why nearly all threat actors have shifted away from technical exploits to compromise their targets
- How organisations can leverage threat data to understand which people and departments are highly targeted
- How to design effective protection for highly attacked, highly vulnerable, and highly privileged users

Executive Boardroom Session
Refining the Security of OT Environments

- Convergence of IT and OT environments
- Best practices in OT incident response
- Perspectives on the latest threat landscape for OT
