Securing the Next Wave — AI, Edge, and Advanced App Modernisation for CISOs

As organisations accelerate digital transformation, CISOs face the dual challenge of modernising applications and integrating emerging technologies like AI and edge computing—all while defending an ever-expanding attack surface. The need to scale innovation securely has never been greater, especially as demands for real-time experiences and resilient architectures grow.

Join this virtual town hall to gain actionable insights on:

Balancing seamless digital experiences with robust security as modernisation initiatives scale
Frameworks for choosing the right modernisation approach (rehost, replatform, refactor)
