ATSummit 2024 ENG - ATSUMMIT

We invite you to actively participate in the 12th edition of
the Advanced Threat Summit—the most significant cybersecurity conference in Poland for active cybersecurity managers!

As always, the conference will gather a large, several-hundred-person professional
audience of expert representatives from corporations, banks, financial and public institutions.
It is also the venue for numerous leading partners,
including well-known and trusted technology solution providers in the industry.
A true cybersecurity festival!

During the productive efforts of the Program Council, each year we select the current
challenges that the cybersecurity community in Poland faces. In the 11th edition of the AT Summit,
we will focus on understanding the consequences that the expansion of various security-related regulations has for the entire industry.

We invite you to actively participate in the 12th edition of
the Advanced Threat Summit—the most significant cybersecurity conference in Poland for active cybersecurity managers!

1.

THE INDUSTRY IS INCREASINGLY REGULATED

Regulations are a double-edged sword – on one hand, they aid in attracting the attention of decision-makers and securing funding for implementations, projects, and teams; on the other, meeting compliance requirements becomes an end in itself, raising questions about the optimal direction for actions.

To what extent does the increasing number of regulations limit the criterion of common sense?

The shadow of NIS2 – how will the market cope with new regulations that will suddenly cover a huge number of entities at the same time?

Will meeting the regulatory requirements in the cybersecurity industry deplete budgets and resources needed for other, "non-regulatory" security projects and initiatives?

Due to regulations in the industry, a large group of entirely new people will emerge – what are the consequences, and how can we help them quickly overcome the learning curve?

Does the specter of war change our approach to regulations and cyber resilience?
2.

CYBERSECURITY IN THE SPOTLIGHT

From a technological field, cybersecurity has evolved into a focus of business and corporate management

What consequences does this carry – in terms of competencies, education, and accountability?

How does it change business expectations – especially in the areas of accountability, demonstrating value, and delivering KPIs?

Is cybersecurity currently better understood than it used to be?

What attitude does this require from those involved in cybersecurity?

How does cybersecurity change companies themselves, and can it build their value?
3.

ERA OF AI INTELLIGENCE - AI AS A HELPER… BUT ALSO A THREAT

The revolution of the cybersecurity industry through AI is happening before our eyes.

Are we expecting miracles – limitations of currently available technologies?

Tools that can change the way people and cybersecurity departments work.

Improving (increasingly cheaper) social engineering and AI's role in creating 'artificial users' – what to do when CAPTCHA no longer works?

AI regulations primarily concern ethics, but not the risks related to security – should this change?
4.

DATA AND ITS ANALYSIS IN CYBERSECURITY

A large part of cybersecurity involves... numbers, for example from SIEM-class systems.

Are we devoting enough attention to data analysis in cybersecurity?

Companies are increasingly establishing dedicated analytics centers – should the cyber area be part of them?
5.

CLOUD IN EVERY COMPANY

Data processing is inevitably moving towards environments over which we do not have full control – what long-term consequences does this permanent change bring to the cybersecurity industry?

Security in the Cloud – what are the pros and cons of the ongoing migration of cybersecurity tools from on-premises to the cloud?
6.

REVOLUTION IN THE WORLD OF SUPPLIERS – 3RD PARTY RISK

A new sector is emerging - the rating of resilience and reliability of supply chain elements.

Practice versus regulatory requirements – a serious approach to supply chain security.

External communication within IT systems with clients and suppliers – risk analysis, potential threats, costs, monitoring solutions.

Certification and security of products connected to the network.
7.

THREATS AND ATTACKS - ANALYSIS AND MITIGATION

As always, the agenda will include the "classic" set of topics in the area of Advanced Threat.

How to counteract threats and how to prepare for them.

Best practices of cybersecurity departments – proprietary solutions and recognized methodologies.

New tools and innovations in the area of cybersecurity solutions.

Collaborating with service and solution providers versus in-house competencies.

Building cyber resilience of organizations, ensuring operational continuity.

Innovative awareness programs.
