Session 1 – Unmasking the Next Evolution of Cyber Threats: A Deep Dive into the Modern Threat Landscape (1 hour)

Join leading figures from law enforcement and intelligence, alongside a CISO, for a critical examination of the evolving macro-cyber risk landscape over the next year. This exclusive session will unveil the intricacies of emerging threat actors like Scattered Spider, dissect recent high-profile retailer breaches, and explore the far-reaching implications of sophisticated hacker operations. Gain unparalleled insights into the tactics, techniques, and procedures defining tomorrow’s cyber attacks.

Session 2 – The AI Hack: A Live Demonstration of Vulnerability and Exploitation (30 mins)

Witness firsthand how an AI tool can be compromised in this revealing and practical demonstration. This 30-minute session will move beyond theoretical discussions, showcasing live exploitation techniques against an AI system.

Session 3 – Navigating the Regulatory Tides: Key Legislative Updates and Compliance Strategies (45 mins)

Stay ahead of the curve with a digestible overview of the latest legislative and regulatory developments impacting the cybersecurity domain. This session will provide crucial updates on landmark regulations such as the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and NIS2, breaking down complex legal frameworks into actionable insights. Through “mini TED talk” segments, we’ll demystify compliance requirements.

Session 4 – Ransomware Unleashed: A Simulated Supply Chain Attack with Interactive Defense (2 hours)

Immerse yourself in a high-stakes, two-hour interactive simulation of a sophisticated supply chain ransomware attack. This isn’t a passive presentation; you’ll participate in real-time decision-making, experiencing the rapid escalation and complex challenges of a major incident. Beyond the technical breach, the session will delve into critical contentious issues, including the analysis of class action risk, the availability of post-breach legal orders, and the intricate web of legal and reputational fallout.
