01 Risk Culture: Quantification, Appetite and Management

We need an integrated enterprise wide, risk-based approach. Is the organisation thinking deeply and building the right culture of risk? How do we navigate unique operating contexts and risk profiles if risk is siloed in multiple roles?

02 The Implications of AI

AI, ML and Quantum will shape the future of cyber security – as tools for enhancing cyber capabilities and as targets. How to stay ahead of the curve and anticipate the next wave of threats and opportunities? How to prepare your tech investments, people, leaders, and board?

03 Ensuring Top-Down Cyber Leadership

With Australia under high profile attack, it’s a pivotal time for Security leadership. To reach goals of protection, preparation, resilience, and trust – we must ensure that security leadership and culture comes from the top down.

04 A Global Perspective on Australia's Cyber Posture

Australia is the tip of the spear, as criminals practice and optimise their attacks on AU targets, to then launch on US. How can we be elite at sharing, as well as at cyber protection.

05 How to Raise the Profile of Security Risk in your Business?

Debating how to raise the profile of security risk, the team and people involved – so they are not seen as blockers, so they have more influence – and how to be better at persuasion?

06 How will we become the world's most cyber secure country by 2030?

The goal will need strategies and capabilities to harden our nation, so Australia becomes an unwelcome operating environment for cyber criminals. What are they? How do we help reach this goal. starting with our organisational front line?
