From Smart Factory to Strategic Advantage: Securing Manufacturing at Scale

Industry 4.0 is no longer a future vision, it has become the operating model for modern manufacturing. Across Germany and the broader DACH region, manufacturers are accelerating digital transformation by adopting cloud platforms, AI-driven automation, and highly connected production environments to increase efficiency, resilience, and global competitiveness. However, this transformation is also redefining cyber risk. As IT and OT converge, and industrial ecosystems become more interconnected, the potential impact of a cyber incident has expanded from data loss to intellectual property exposure, production disruption, supply chain interruption, and operational downtime. In this new environment identity, both human, machine and now AI, has emerged as the central control plane for securing modern manufacturing operations. This private executive dinner will bring together manufacturing security leaders to explore how identity security is becoming a strategic enabler for operational resilience, secure innovation, and scalable industrial digitalization. The discussion will focus on securing machine identities across complex production environments and strategies to enable secure, just-in-time and least-privilege access for engineers, operators and third-party partners. Including approaches to move beyond legacy VPN models toward modern identity-centric architectures. We will also examine how organizations are strengthening cyber resilience in alignment with NIS2 Directive and evolving European cyber regulations. Join a curated group of industry peers for an off-the-record conversation on how identity security can protect critical operations, strengthen resilience, and securely scale innovation in the era of connected industry.

Attended the C-Vision International CISO Dinner last night and to sum it up in one word, "Wow!" Incredibly well moderated discussion and investigation into different viewpoints. I appreciate the openness of all the attendees to share their unique experiences and perspectives. I learned a lot, had a ton of fun, and look forward to further events like this!

Director of Strategic Accounts, IL Enterprise

Recently updated my "event vendors I will NEVER work with again" list, DM me if you're interested in the names and stories. On the other hand, I want to recommend Nelson Soares and C-Vision International who are true partners to our success, and I really enjoy working with. Happy to also share the great list of vendors we liked, as there are many of them, and we've recently had the pleasure of joining wonderful events, which we immediately renewed.

The day was awesome and the evening exceeded my wildest expectations. I've never been to a dinner like that where a table with 12 CIOs/CISOs was focused exclusively on Netskope. Just fantastic.
Thank you for including me!
I look forward to the next time we have the opportunity to meet

I had the pleasure of joining the C-Vision International, Nordics CISO Council Roundtable with a wonderful group of cyber executives. We had a wonderful, insightful conversation and the whole experience was enjoyable. I made great new contacts and reconnected with existing contacts on really important topics that matter to CISO’s and all in cybersecurity. I’d highly recommend joining in any C-Vision event.

C-vision's events combine relevant topics with a suitable audience. I found great value at my last attendance, and would definitely consider upcoming events.
