CISO Summit – Cyber Resilience in the Age of AIBuilding Trust, Control & Readiness – 20th – 21st November, 2026

ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

As AI becomes more deeply embedded in business operations, CISOs are being asked to manage a new class of risks that traditional security models were never built to handle. From AI-powered attacks and data exposure to governance gaps, shadow AI, third-party dependencies, and the challenge of securing innovation, the role is becoming broader, more complex, and far more strategic. This is why CISOs today are no longer just defending systems; they are expected to build trust in AI adoption, maintain control over data and access, and ensure the organization is resilient enough to respond to fast-evolving threats.

This Summit will help security leaders exchange ideas on the real-world risks AI is creating and the practical steps needed to stay ahead. It will also offer peer insights on how to balance innovation with control, resilience, and governance in a rapidly changing landscape.

Join us as we engage in a leadership-level discussion on how security can enable innovation rather than slow it down.

Discussion Topics

  • How AI is changing the cyber threat landscape for enterprises.
  • Ways CISOs can build trust, control, and governance around AI adoption.
  • Balancing innovation with security, compliance, and operational resilience.
  • Managing shadow AI, vendor risk, and data protection in a fast-changing environment.
  • What leadership teams need to do to stay resilient in the age of AI.
