Strategic Security Conference

Trust, Sovereignty & AI Powered Intelligent Defence

The IT security landscape has entered a new era of rapid disruption, strict regulation, and rising complexity. Organizations must modernize their architectures, secure distributed environments, and adopt AI responsibly, while navigating European regulations.

At the Cyber Resilience Conference, you’ll explore how to manage these regulations simultaneously, prepare for post-quantum cryptography, secure multi-cloud and API-driven ecosystems, strengthen identity systems, and defend against AI-driven threats such as adversarial inputs and data poisoning.

Join your peers and gain practical strategies for achieving digital sovereignty, securing supply chains, and advancing cyber defence with adaptive, AI-powered detection and response.
