Executive Summit

Geopolitical tensions and nation-state cyber threats are reshaping the risk landscape for global organizations. Attacks on critical infrastructure, both digital or physical, can disrupt business operations and national economies. Global CISOs must proactively identify and address vulnerabilities across the supply chain and infrastructure ecosystem.

Join this boardroom to discuss ways to:

• Map and regularly assess dependencies on critical infrastructure and third-party suppliers
• Develop cross-functional crisis response plans for infrastructure disruptions
• Foster global intelligence sharing and collaboration to anticipate and mitigate emerging threats

For global enterprises, securing the agentic enterprise is a fundamental transformation in how data security, AI risk, and operational resilience intersect. As autonomous AI agents proliferate across complex environments, the greatest risks now reside in the data these agents can access and act upon—beyond traditional model or perimeter defenses. Forward-thinking CISOs who address this convergence will position their organizations for competitive advantage and regulatory confidence in the age of AI.

Join this session to explore:

• Strategies for global visibility and control over AI deployments
• Protecting sensitive enterprise data from AI-driven risks
• Building resilient, compliant frameworks for converged AI threats

Executives' high-visibility lifestyles and global travel make them valuable targets for threat actors, including those motivated by geo-political forces. CISOs must move beyond traditional corporate defenses to safeguard the organization from reputational, financial, and cyber risks that originate in an executive’s personal digital life. Complete digital executive protection addresses this gap–protecting executives beyond the office walls including their personal movements through tailored global travel advisories and by securing devices, multiple domestic and international home networks, and online accounts.

Join this session to discuss how to:

• Incorporate a strong digital executive protection framework into a worldwide security strategy
• Analyze the personal attack chain and how digital vulnerabilities lead to physical risk
• Combat global cyber threats in the age of AI

Beyond deepfakes, fraud, and phishing attacks, next-gen attackers can launch complex campaigns that hit hard and fast across teams and regions. With AI and automation, threat vectors are evolving faster than most security teams can even triage. Global CISOs must adapt and scale defenses quickly– leveraging AI to fight AI.

Join this session to discuss:

• Evolving attack vector trends your peers are witnessing around the world
• Bridging the gap between digital and human risk to fight back with real-time threat intelligence
• Scaling adaptable defenses quickly and globally to defend your organization’s brand

AI is embedded into business around the world, shaping how organizations develop into the future. To build an effective AI security strategy that gives visibility and context into your increasingly complex global environment, CISOs must scale security on a whole new level.

Join this session to discuss:

• Identifying and assessing AI-related risks, including data exposure and model vulnerabilities
• Scaling AI security measures as technology and threats evolve
• Implementing security controls throughout the AI lifecycle, from development to deployment

Access has fundamentally changed across the world. The growth of AI agents, cloud infrastructure, and machine identities is outpacing traditional access models, increasing both complexity and risk. This shift demands a new approach to identity security especially for international companies faced with complex environments.

Join this roundtable to discuss:

• Defining identity in a world where humans are the minority
• Creating infrastructure access for AI agents that is dynamically controlled, auditable, and limited to what’s necessary

As agentic AI transforms the workplace, CISOs must shift from global access validation to intent and behavior oversight for both people and AI agents.

Join this session to discuss:

• Governing AI across global employees and autonomous agents
• Operationalizing real-time, intent-based risk mitigation
• Building future-ready frameworks for agentic AI governance

Regulations don't stand still — and neither do the organizations trying to keep up with them. For CISOs managing multi-national environments, staying compliant isn't just a technical challenge. It's a communication challenge. AI has accelerated both. Organizations getting this right aren't doing more. They're working from better data.

Join this session to discuss:

• Foundations and data strategies that strengthen governance and build trust because compliance on paper isn’t true continuous compliance
• Anticipating and adapting to shifting regulations with scalable, AI-supported strategies that translate security posture into metrics boards and operational leaders can act on
• What consistent, measurable compliance looks like when your control environment spans multiple geographies, frameworks, and levels of technical knowledge

AI agents now access sensitive data and execute decisions without human approval, and sometimes beyond their intended scope. For Global CISOs operating across dozens of jurisdictions, each with its own regulatory framework, agent overreach is both a security risk and a compliance event. Your peers face the same question: how do you maintain continuous compliance when autonomous systems move faster than your audit cycles, and regulators move faster than your legal teams?
Join this moderated peer discussion to explore:

• Detecting and preventing agent overreach before it becomes a compliance violation across jurisdictions
• Building governance frameworks that scale, from PCI and HIPAA to GDPR and emerging AI-specific regulations
• Aligning legal, audit, and security teams around shared accountability for agentic AI oversight

AI can create incredible business advantages through speed and innovation, especially in application development. But applications continue to be a point of huge concern for data breach entry points. In a world of evolving threats, can Global CISOs be champions for maintaining a competitive edge through innovation without trading security risk or compliance.

Join this session to discuss:

• AI’s dual impact on application development speed for competitive advantages and security vulnerabilities
• Next-gen data breaches trends involving application security and how to get ahead to stop data breaches
• Navigating complex regulations on AI and data on a global scale
