Over the past few years, Ukraine has taught us a huge amount about national resilience. But can it continue to stand up to Russia? How does Europe – including the UK – realign its security strategy with questions hanging over the US? And what are the implications for our online security?

As technical depth becomes a baseline expectation in cybersecurity, how can organisations and individuals adapt? We’ll explore future-focused capability building, certification, and workforce development strategies to meet evolving security demands.

Traditional compliance is no longer sufficient – we must focus on identifying and addressing risky behaviours. Discuss how to measure programme effectiveness with behaviour-focused indicators, implement capture frameworks, overcome common engagement challenges, and communicate results to stakeholders.

Discover the different mindsets reshaping how leading teams approach the human aspect of cybersecurity – from measuring real behaviour change to aligning with frameworks like NIST and MITRE ATT&CK. We’ll explore how to manage human risk with intelligence and give you insights you can act on straight away.

In today’s data-driven world, harnessing the right insights is key to building inclusive workplaces.
