Agenda:
-

The traditional network perimeter is gone. Hackers don’t break in; they log in. This session explores why identity security is no longer just about IAM controls. It’s about mastering the full identity lifecycle, from onboarding to offboarding (JML). We’ll demonstrate how Microsoft Entra empowers organisations to implement Zero Trust principles, protecting identities at every touchpoint.
-
AI will transform business as we know it; but without proper governance, it can introduce serious risks. Discover how Microsoft Purview builds the trusted data foundation that makes AI adoption possible. Accelerating deployment while keeping risk in check. Learn strategies to meet evolving regulatory requirements and maintain transparency across AI-driven processes. Walk away with a clear roadmap for governing AI responsibly—so you can innovate with confidence, not caution.

The threat landscape is becoming more complex and highly adaptive, with data the consistent objective. Scarily convincing deepfakes and supply chain breaches are no longer theoretical. Our SOC team will share real-world incidents they’re seeing, break down the top cyber threats coming in 2026, and give you actionable steps to bulletproof your identity, data, and defences. Walk away with a clear playbook for staying ahead of attackers in an increasingly hostile digital world.
