Data Security & AI Governance

As AI becomes embedded across the enterprise, protecting sensitive data is becoming increasingly complex. This panel will explore how organisations are securing information as it moves across cloud platforms, AI models and automated workflows. Leaders will discuss how they are enabling AI innovation while maintaining transparency, control and responsible data use.

 Centralising Security Information 

Security teams are dealing with more data, alerts and signals than ever before. This panel will look at how organisations are bringing security information together through SIEM, data lakes and other architectures to create a clearer view across hybrid environments. Leaders will discuss what centralisation means for detection and response, as well as the challenges around scale, cost and data quality.

Zero Trust

This panel will unpack how Zero Trust has shifted from a theoretical framework to a practical operating model for securing modern, hybrid enterprises. Security leaders will share how they are strengthening identity, segmentation and continuous verification, and the cultural and architectural changes needed to make Zero Trust work at scale.
