If you trained to fight in the dark, you could meet your adversary at night or turn off the lights and you would have the advantage, right?  A transparent world, one in which the lights are turned up, revealing information that was once hidden or obscure, is coming at us full steam. Whoever figures out how to fight, compete, prosper in that transparent world will have the advantage. It's time to start training to fight in the light.

Join former DHS Undersecretary Suzanne Spaulding for a fireside chat on the importance of transparency in protecting our networks and data.

As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly embedded in enterprise operations, it presents both incredible opportunities and unprecedented security challenges. In this talk, we will explore the unique security risks that arise from adopting AI technologies and provide insights into effective strategies for fortifying the enterprise. We will delve into key areas of concern, such as data privacy, adversarial attacks, threats, and AI model vulnerabilities.

As connectivity to the industrial network grows, the number and type of devices– smart sensors, valves, and gauges – expands the attack surface making industrial environments low-hanging fruit for an attack. Cyber physical systems can be difficult to defend due to the mix of modern and legacy equipment. Cloud adoption, and the introduction of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML), have increased to improve data analytics and support the growing need for remote access. As headlines highlight, attackers are recycling old threats using new techniques with industrial organizations in their sites. This panel of OT experts will discuss the threats, challenges, and strategies to secure cyber physical systems including cloud connectivity, AI / ML, 5G and industrial IoT.

With the explosion of digital transformation, AI, cloud, and technology convergence, organizations can expand their businesses further than ever before. However, it can all come crashing down with a single breach. Having a better understanding of the threats and best practices allows organizations to respond and implement better cybersecurity. This session will feature customers and partners with their perspectives on the latest trends in IT and security and what organizations can do to prepare for 2024 and beyond.

In today’s hyper-connected world, the need for a strong cybersecurity culture has never been more critical. As cyber threats become more sophisticated, it's imperative that organizations close the cyber skills gap by developing comprehensive training programs, promoting a culture of cybersecurity, collaborating with other organizations, and fostering a culture of continuous learning and innovation. Join us for a thought-provoking talk by SHI’s VP of Engineering as he shares 30 years of perspective on building a culture of cybersecurity and closing the cyber skills gap. Learn how to stay ahead of the curve and protect your organization from cyber threats.

5G is no longer hype. It’s here. Join Boingo Wireless CTO Dr. Derek Peterson to discover how 5G and AI are poised to reshape enterprise operations. From smart robotics and cutting-edge IoT devices to asset tracking and the proliferation of touchless environments, Dr. Peterson will spotlight the game-changing trends defining connectivity in the 21st century. Walk away with a blueprint for securely powering your complex, connected business needs in this fast-paced digital era.

Governments around the world are issuing new regulations for cybersecurity risks. In the United States, for example, the New York Department of Financial Services, the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Transportation Security Administration, and the Cyber and Infrastructure Security Agency are among the growing roster of agencies issuing new requirements. What gives? After all, it's not like these risks are new--organizations and their information security pros have been dealing with them for ages. Stanford researcher and former senior White House cyber official Andrew Grotto will describe the shifts, what's motivating them, and help executives plan ahead for where cyber policy is headed.

The cyber insurance market and expectations continue to evolve in an ever-changing threat landscape. For a period of time, the market was hard. The market has now reverted back to a softer market. Does that reflect that the worst is over and there is less worry about controls? No. You will hear the key controls to focus on to reduce the probability of a ransomware event. Hear what you need to know as an applicant or renewing client going into purchasing cyber insurance and how you can prepare for a better experience and outcome. I will discuss the key controls insurance carriers want to understand better in order to determine your cyber resiliency.
