With a number of major cyber attacks hitting Ireland, including the devastating HSE ransomware attack earlier this year, organisations are pushing cybersecurity high up on the agenda to ensure they are doing all that they can to prevent any major disruptions to operations as a result of a cyber incident.

As cyber criminals continue to become more sophisticated and the cyber threats more complex, the inaugural Cyber Security Summit will act as a platform for leaders to share best practice, discuss the challenges they face in protecting their organisations and learn from experts on how they can build strong, scalable, business aligned cyber security practices.

Have you been asked lately – how secure are we as an organisation? Can you answer this question with confidence? 

Please note, the Cyber Security Summit has been designed for both senior business and security leaders to develop their knowledge in order to shape their cyber security strategy and to benchmark their current practices.

The Cyber Security Summit pillars:

• Best practice: hear strategic insights from business and cyber security leaders on how they are tackling cyber challenges and responding to attacks. Discuss the latest solutions with experts and peers. 
• Emerging trends: learn from cyber security experts and specialists about the opportunities and challenges surrounding key areas such as privacy, threat management and cloud security.
• Cyber strategy & leadership: learn how to refine your management and strategic skills to ensure cyber security is embedded in all layers of your organisation 
• Latest technology: review the latest technologies helping businesses protect themselves from cyber threats and determine what is worth investing in

• Understand the organisation leader’s role in cyber security and how to align with the security function 
• Effectively communicate cyber risk and strategy to stakeholders
• Implement robust training programs and raise cyber awareness throughout the organisation
• Strike the balance between investment in technical defence and human factors solutions
