Cybersecurity Standardisation Conference 2023

Our most recent edition took place in June 2023, in Orlando USA, and brought together an assembly of eminent transformation leaders and luminaries from renowned organizations such as NASA, Google, Uber, and more. This remarkable gathering served as a platform where brilliant minds converged to exchange profound wisdom, ignite the flames of innovation, chart strategic pathways, and forge enduring connections. Our 9th edition of the Global OPEX and Business Transformation Summit serves as a beacon of knowledge, inspiration, and collaboration, bringing together industry leaders, visionaries,and experts from around the world to explore the latest strategies, trends, and best practices in optimizing operations and driving transformative change. We will delve into a wide range of topics, from digital transformation and process optimization to leadership strategies and customer-centric operations. Through engaging keynote speeches, interactive panel discussions, and in-depth workshops, we will unravel the secrets to unlocking operational excellence, harnessing the power of technology, and driving holistic business transformation. We will learn from one another’s experiences, exchange insights, and forge meaningful connections that will inspire action and drive tangible results. Our collective mission is to not only survive but thrive in the face of disruption, and race change, and lead the way toward a more agile, resilient, and customer-centric future.

Cybersecurity has always contended with evolving threats. As the internet has become more embedded into social and economic life and smart phones, tablets and other handheld devices become ubiquitous, bad actors have devised new attacks to capitalize on new vulnerabilities. And just as agencies are implementing zero trust architecture to help with this wave, other IT developments are threatening to upend cybersecurity even more. For instance, artificial intelligence is being incorporated into software, even as elected officials and regulatory agencies are trying to develop new rules of the road for its use. At the same time, historically-offline operations technology is beginning to be integrated with IT systems, opening up the OT to attacks that previously weren’t feasible.

By bringing together the top 80 Executives in the region, we will discuss the most pressing Technology and Leadership challenges we face in an ever-evolving corporate landscape. Over the next two and a half days, we will nurture meaningful relationships and tackle the challenges inherent to IT in a smaller, more dynamic setting. You will learn from your peers through various workshops, panels, roundtables and presentations. Our closed-door policy fosters an environment where all discussions are confined within the Forum walls, enabling more genuine and engaged conversations.

Attackers employ a variety of threats with the goal of deliberately infiltrating, disrupting, exposing, damaging or stealing from their intended targets. These cyberattacks come in many forms, understanding the various types of cyberthreats and how to properly defend against them is imperative for enabling secure and successful business growth. Following the success of our inaugural Practitioner MicroSummit in December we will be hosting our second event in January. Join us for an afternoon of technical insights where we will look at how the network, endpoint and cloud all provide the necessary information to effectively identify, protect, detect and respond to these threats and Unit 42 - our class-leading Threat Intelligence and consultancy services arm - will bring these data-points into line with the essential processes needed to effectively recover from an attack. Post Summit, join the team for an informal evening reception whilst admiring the best views of London on the 55th floor of our flagship London office at 22 Bishopsgate.
