10:00	Cybersecurity as the Basis for Agile and Resilient Digital Business
	On the mind of CISOs in 2024 and beyond? Driven by new GenAI-assisted cyberattack methods and a sophisticated cybercrime ecosystem, the volume, frequency, and sophistication of attacks continue to increase. Are security professionals, executives, and senior management ready to take on the challenge? Does the organization have a firm grasp of the resiliency required to withstand a major cyberattack and security breach? Faced with these growing challenges, security teams may be understaffed but still need to protect critical business assets with what they have at their disposal if they are to instill trust and steer the complex course of compliance with new and emerging rules for digital sovereignty.

10:25	The Key to Building Trust for a Successful Business in 2024
	A successful AppSec program is vital to a successful online business. However, getting AppSec right is hard. Why? Because the foundation is built on trust – especially between AppSec teams and developers. If you're turning your attention to ramping up your AppSec, you need to make sure that your efforts have cross -functional support, and that the next steps forward make sense to everyone involved. The real question then is: where do you start? How can your team quickly make an impact, and where should you go from there? How do you make sure that while you improve things for your AppSec team, you are also ensuring a positive developer experience with your program? The session will cover about how industry peers think about AppSec, and how to lead team to jumpstart own AppSec program, no matter what stage of development you might be in.

16:10 17:10	Roundtable Tracks (Parallel Sessions)
	Roundtable 1 16:10 - 17:10 Building a Digital Twin for Network Defense: Enhanced Visualization and Improved Security With hundreds of networked devices, tens of thousands of endpoints, and hundreds of thousands or even millions of vulnerabilities, large enterprise networks are so complex that gaining visibility and understanding areas of risk can be impossible. Therefore, seeing and fully comprehending this vast picture is critical to a successful security strategy. Proactive threat intelligence, especially in the ever-changing landscape of AI-powered attacks, is crucial for security teams to stay ahead of the curve. Traditional methods might struggle to keep pace with the sophistication of AI-driven threats. And this where a digital twin can be a game-changer! Imagine a virtual replica of your entire network – a "digital twin" – that constantly monitors and reflects its real-world counterpart. This approach offers unparalleled visibility. Threats and vulnerabilities can be automatically identified and meticulously analysed, their potential risks quantified, and even visually represented. With such clear insights, security teams can access a single source of truth and gain unprecedented visibility of your organization's attack surface. This proactive approach, fuelled by effective threat intelligence, is essential for security teams to adapt and thrive in the evolving AI threat ecosystem. Join our hosts from Skybox Security, who have been building digital twins for some of the world's largest organizations for over two decades, for a RANT Roundtable deep dive into how this technology can supercharge your security and simplify your compliance and change processes. During the round table, delegates can look forward to: • Exploring how increasingly well-financed threat actors are exploiting a dramatically changing attack surface. • Gaining insights into why Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) is crucial for managing and mitigating threats in today's dynamic cybersecurity landscape. • Learning how proactive investments can help you develop a strategic and systematic approach to reducing your organization's cyber risk and improving your holistic security posture. Aftab Syed Country Manager - India, Skybox Security Debjyoti Guha Technical Director - India, Southeast Asia & Japan, Skybox Security Sakshi Grover Research Manager, Future of Trust, IDC India Roundtable 2 16:10 - 17:10 AppSec: The Key to Building Trust for a Successful Business in 2024 A successful AppSec program is vital to a successful online business. However, getting AppSec right is hard. Why? Because the foundation is built on trust – especially between AppSec teams and developers. If you're turning your attention to ramping up your AppSec, you need to make sure that your efforts have cross -functional support, and that the next steps forward make sense to everyone involved. The real question then is: where do you start? How can your team quickly make a recognizable impact, and where should you go from there? How do you make sure that while you improve things for your AppSec team, you are also ensuring a positive developer experience with your program? At Checkmarx, we help organizations answer this question for themselves every day. Join us for this round table discussion and learn about how your industry peers think about AppSec, and how to lead your team to jumpstart your own AppSec program, no matter what stage of development you might be in.

9:50	Securing the Global Workforce: Challenges and Solutions
	As more and more organizations embrace hybrid and remote work, not only did the potential attack surface expand, but it also moved outside of conventional perimeter defences. Intrusion detection systems and firewalls for example were built mainly to stop and neutralize traditional cybercrime such as ransomware and data breaches. Today, IT security professionals face a myriad of new cybersecurity risks associated with remote work. Whether it’s the shortage in security talent, vulnerable network configurations, insider threats or cloud-based infrastructures, IT security experts are facing an unprecedented spike in attacks that are increasing in both sophistication and scale.
