Welcome to the 4th Edition of the IT Security Insights 2020. It is a great pleasure to have you on this year's edition as it might well be the most important one so far. As we are still in the middle of the COVID-19 Pandemic, many wonder how society and business will look like in a year. We are all hoping for quick V economic recovery, but also aware that business and society has already changed dramatically. It seems like the pandemic worked as a "black swan" scenario that has pushed us forward 5 years in terms of digitalisation and workplace distribution. That might be great in many instances but not in our area of work. Since March most of their businesses have their employees working from home. This resulted in a rapid increase of cyber attacks targeting private people and organisations. Recent one being the tech giant Twitter. The importance of IT security has never been bigger than today.
This edition will provide insights into the biggest challenges faced by leading Nordic and global organisations. The main themes include: Vendor Risk Management, Cyber Security for Critical Infrastructures, The New Swedish Protective Security Act, IoT Security & Device Visibility Control, Penetration Testing, Cloud Security, TIBER EU Framework, Security Compliance, information security training initiatives and latest cybercrimes.
With over 22 speakers confirmed to date, 8 round tables sessions, 8 breakout sessions, a panel debate, 19 partners so far in the exhibition area, this year's conference offers a lot of interactions, networking and discussion opportunities provided by both the virtual event and onsite event formats that you cannot afford to miss.
After much consideration due the recent COVID-19 pandemic, we have decided that this year’s Edition will be partly online and partly hosted at 7A Odenplan in Stockholm, Sweden where participants can attend the conference in person.
THE ONLINE IT SECURITY INSIGHTS CONFERENCE AT A GLANCE:
The online programme is an exact digital version of the physical onsite programme. It will provide you opportunities: to create your own agenda, access to all event sessions and tracks, visit virtual booths, engage with speakers, chat one on one with exhibitors and fellow visitors to mention but a few.LIVE STREAMING:The entire programme will be streamed live powered by Myconnector’s event platform.
THE IT SECURITY INSIGHTS PHYSICAL CONFERENCE AT A GLANCE:
We shall also be hosting conference participants at the designated conference venue. Different from the online participants, you are in a position to attend the full conference programme in person. All visitors are guaranteed to attend all conference sessions and tracks of their own choice, luncheons, connect and network with all partipants onsite, engage in one-to-one meetings and much more.
Looking forward to seeing you in October.
Sincerely,
Robert Kitunzi
