Cyber resilience is the focus of this session, setting the stage for how organisations can strengthen stability amid growing complexity. Attendees will explore how resilience improves when human judgement is paired with the practical use of artificial intelligence, not treated as its replacement. The discussion will show how AI can support everyday decisions, sharpen detection and response, and strengthen long-term planning. The session also addresses rising third-party and supply chain risk, outlining why greater visibility and assurance are now essential. With clear governance and continuous assessment, AI becomes a tool that enhances oversight and builds confidence in critical dependencies. Attendees will leave with an understanding for combining human insight, AI enablement and robust supplier management into a cohesive model for resilient, sustainable growth.

In the Human-AI era, resilience means building a breach-ready cloud that assumes compromise, reduces blast radius, and continuously adapts to evolving risk. By unifying security across the full lifecycle, connecting runtime visibility with code-level remediation, organisations can find risk in the cloud and fix it in the code. Leveraging AI to prioritise exploitable threats and streamline remediation not only strengthens security posture, but drives the speed and efficiency modern businesses demand.

This session explores how the convergence of IT, OT and AI is reshaping security requirements and why traditional protections are no longer enough. It examines how attackers target CPS environments, the potential real-world consequences of a breach, and the growing need for continuous monitoring, strong governance and safer system design. The session highlights how tools and services can support faster detection, enhanced resilience to respond to attacks and maintain business continuity in the face of adverse situations and safer operations and a more robust defence posture across the systems that modern society depends on. 

Security operations are being reshaped by an environment where threats evolve faster than human teams can track them. This session explores how AI is transforming the SOC into a more adaptive, efficient and resilient function. It examines how intelligent systems can reduce alert fatigue, enhance threat detection, accelerate investigation and support faster, more confident decision-making. The talk also highlights the importance of keeping human expertise at the centre, showing how AI can augment analysts rather than replace them. Attendees will gain practical insight into building a SOC approach that aligns with the human–AI era: one where technology amplifies capability, strengthens response and enables teams to stay ahead in a landscape defined by speed and complexity.

In this session, Vectra breaks down how modern attackers move across identity, network, cloud, and endpoint controls without triggering obvious alarms. From exposed buckets and stolen credentials to token abuse and AI-assisted lateral movement, each step often looks legitimate in isolation. Using real-world breach examples and attacker chat logs, this talk walks through how adversaries exploit gaps between tools, persist even after eviction, and compress their timelines with automation and AI.

Drawing on the realities of hybrid work, widespread mobility and ever-shifting connectivity, this session explores how security must adapt to a world where every interaction is fluid. The talk examines how identity, device health and application-level segmentation now create a living perimeter that adjusts as quickly as the organisation moves. Instead of defending fixed networks, enterprises must secure their people wherever they are and whatever they are accessing.

Three years into this new operating model, the session reflects on what has worked, what has proved harder than expected and how organisations are refining their approach to keep pace with constant change. Attendees will learn how converged, cloud-delivered controls can reduce complexity, strengthen consistency and deliver resilience in an environment defined by motion rather than boundaries. 

In today’s UKI security landscape, the perimeter has shifted to the identity plane. However, as organizations scale, the explosion of non-human entities—service accounts, API keys, and autonomous AI agents—has created a critical visibility gap. This session explores the evolution of identity-first security, addressing the surge in "Shadow AI" and the 35% annual telemetry growth overwhelming traditional SOCs. Aligning with NCSC’s Cyber Assessment Framework, we will outline a roadmap from manual triage to Agentic AI-driven defense. Attendees will leave with a practical audit checklist to secure machine identities and govern the AI workforce at machine speed.

This session explores why forward-looking preparation is essential and how organisations can take practical steps today. It examines the need to audit encryption dependencies, identify long-lived data at risk, plan migration paths and understand the broader implications of quantum performance on infrastructure and privacy. Attendees will learn how quantum-safe strategies can be embedded into long-term resilience planning and why the organisations that prepare early will be best positioned to gain a competitive edge, maintain trust, continuity and operational stability when quantum capability reaches critical mass. 

As organisations roll out GenAI and AI-driven automation, attackers are quietly adapting their playbooks. 
 
In this talk, Glenn explores how hackers interact with AI-enabled systems in the real world, from prompt abuse and data leakage to over-trusted automation and brittle decision logic. Using a simple narrative thread, the session shows how perfectly reasonable design choices can create unexpected security and resilience gaps when humans and machines start sharing decisions.
 
The tone is engaging and accessible, but the focus is practical. Attendees leave with a clearer understanding of where AI changes the attack surface, how human judgement shifts under automation, and what security leaders should question before AI systems become business-critical.
