Opening of the day by the Chair
Building Organizational Resilience Through Influential Leadership
Gayle Anders, Global Head of Business Continuity of Netflix Inc.
First, you must establish a framework that is the right-size approach for your organization and its culture. Too much, too fast and you risk alienating yourself from leadership and your stakeholders. Is your resilience program scalable? If you are not automating the program and its processes it won’t scale across the enterprise. Second, you must generate excitement for your workforce and its leaders to actively participate in the program. This is where influential leadership becomes critical to program success.
In this keynote, Gayle Anders, Global Head of Business Continuity at Netflix and Former Director, Crisis & Emergency Management at the United States Marine Corps will discuss establishing a business continuity and resilience framework and using influential leadership to generate support for the program at a global level.

Deep Dive Session: Dealing with the upcoming threats of quantum cryptography
Arnaud Wiehe, Author and Managing Director IT – AI, Cloud and Data Governance of FedEx
Quantum computing is rapidly advancing and poses disruptive challenges to cybersecurity. Many of today’s cryptographic systems could be broken by quantum computers, putting critical infrastructure at risk.
Encrypted data is already being stored by attackers, with plans to decrypt it later using quantum technology (“store-now-decrypt-later” attacks). As a result, migration to quantum-safe solutions is inevitable, and governments are urging industries to prepare for “Post-Quantum Cryptography.”
In this roundtable, led by Arnaud Wiehe, Managing Director IT at FedEx en former CISO of TNT Post we will assess the risks, discuss the urgency, and explore strategies for diagnosis, crypto-agility, migration, and supply chain risk.

Transparency, Trust and Operational Resilience
Jeroen van Kesteren, Head of department Digital Security Services & CISO of De Nederlandsche Bank N.V.
In this session, Jeroen will not only discuss what DNB is doing around the cyber resilience of its own organization in an open and transparent manner, but he will also pay attention to the role of DNB as a policymaker and supervisor.
During this session, you will get some practical examples on what you should do to prevent incidents and how to respond if shit hits the fan. Can you make a shift from compliance (and what do laws and regulations such as GDPR/AVG, NIS2 and DORA mean for your choices) to risk management? How do you involve the board?
Jeroen will share his vision on how you should consider external factors such as the labour market, Quantum and AI. Sharing experiences instead of covering up will help us make our companies more secure!
