Fortify Your Cybersecurity

While cybersecurity is largely about technology, it’s often refreshing to take a step back, look beyond the technology and share in the experiences of others to gain a fresh perspective. 


The 2025 Belgium Security Day is bringing together several well-known names to provide that perspective, from a hacker’s point of view to predictions on the future of cybersecurity.  All of this is complemented by insights into how both human and artificial intelligence can improve decision making and organization’s security posture.


In today’s connected world, it’s difficult to imagine living and working without the conveniences that technology provides. Yet, for several isolated months, Romain Attanasio - professional sailor and our keynote speaker relied upon a single communications link secured by Fortinet, giving new meaning to the role of cybersecurity.
