Geopolitical uncertainty and AIs impact on the security landscape are expected to top the agenda when over 1,000 cybersecurity stakeholders gather for the annual ITWeb Security Summit in Johannesburg next month.
The ITWeb Security Summit, renowned as the must-attend gathering for Southern African cybersecurity professionals, will this year deep dive into a range of new threats impacting organisational resilience. Under the theme 'Redefining security in the face of AI-driven attacks, fragile supply chains and a global skills gap' , the event will explore the changing environment and challenging new issues that cybersecurity professionals face.
With the agenda driven by an exceptional advisory board, a key trend to be explored this year is AI, with speakers outlining issues such as deepfake identity threats, how threat actors are using AI today, AI governance, and the role and ROI of AI in cybersecurity. Regulatory changes and cybersecurity regulation will also come under scrutiny, as will the latest insights into cyber resilience and the human element.
