National Summit

Q Day isn't science fiction anymore, it’s a countdown, an inevitability. What was Fiction is becoming a Fact.  The moment quantum computers can break today's encryption, every secret ever stored becomes vulnerable: Intellectual property, financial records, even national security archives.

In this session, we’ll cut through the hype and get real about quantum risk. What is Q Day? Why is inevitable? And why aren't organizations ready, despite years of warnings. Join us for a candid look at the quantum threat landscape, the false comfort of legacy crypto and the human and strategic blind spots that could cost us everything.

Agentic AI are autonomous systems that perceive, reason, and act with minimal human intervention and is poised to redefine how work gets done. As these intelligent agents move beyond experimentation into enterprise-scale deployments, organizations must prepare to fundamentally architect their digital environments. This panel will explore how leaders can operationalize agentic AI to drive efficiency, creativity, and strategic advantage all while preserving oversight, governance, and trust.

Discussion topics will include designing workflows around autonomous decision-making, managing human-agent collaboration, and navigating emerging risks such as bias, security, and operational drift. Join us as we unpack what it truly means to lead in an era of intelligent, action-oriented AI and how to ensure these agents serve both your innovation goals and core business values.

New AI-powered apps are completely reshaping how organizations operate today. If you're not using the latest tool, you're behind. But while AI offers speed and scale, it also introduces new risks from data leakage, to biased models, and attack surface expansion. This keynote explores how companies are weaving AI into their business and security strategies without compromising trust. We examine the frameworks guiding responsible AI adoption, how to embed governance from day one, and the balance between innovation and oversight. The message is clear: AI isn’t optional—but trust, transparency, and resilience are non-negotiable.

As agentic AI systems evolve from experimental tools to enterprise-grade digital workers—capable of making decisions, taking actions, and adapting in real time—they introduce a new paradigm of both possibility and risk. Unlike traditional automation, agentic AI operates with greater autonomy, raising urgent questions for security leaders: How do we ensure control? How do we manage risk when systems learn, act, and adapt independently?

This panel will explore the security implications of deploying agentic AI across business operations—from data privacy and decision integrity to real-time threat mitigation and adversarial AI risks. We'll dive into the intersection of governance, identity management, and AI observability, and how CISOs can build frameworks that safeguard both the systems and the outcomes.

Cybersecurity isn’t just a technical challenge—it’s a human one. With mounting pressure, 24/7 threats, and increasing accountability, today’s workforce is under immense stress. This leadership roundtable explores the intersection of mental wellness, organizational resilience, and insider risk. Topics include burnout detection, human error trends, building psychologically safe teams, and fostering a culture where security isn’t just enforced—but owned. Learn how executives are rethinking workforce sustainability in security, with practical strategies for retention, performance, and mental clarity at every level.

While enterprises scramble to integrate agentic generative AI, most strategies remain reactionary—anchored in today’s tools rather than tomorrow’s architecture. The overlooked truth is this: the future of AI is not just machines talking to machines, but humans and machines evolving together. In this powerful keynote, Dr. Kien Vuu unveils Precision Human Intelligence as the missing cornerstone of future enterprise design.

You’ll discover why human intelligence—our ability to perceive, prompt, authorize, connect, and create meaning—must sit at the heart of every AI framework, multi-agent system, and emerging AGI or ASI infrastructure. Without it, businesses risk poor conversions, employee disengagement, weak retention, and lost trust. With it, organizations can build adaptive, outcomes-driven, autonomous ecosystems that seamlessly integrate human strengths with machine efficiency. This keynote provides a master plan for rethinking enterprise architecture—not around what AI can do today, but around what must be built now to thrive in the decades to come. The future of successful business is not AI versus humans—it is AI built on human intelligence.

86% security leaders reported feeling confident in their identity threat defenses, yet 85% report being affected by ransomware in the past year, often stemming from identity exposures that can slip past traditional tools like MFA, EDR, and IAM. Peers cite infostealer malware, phishing attacks, and supply chain exposures as persistent blind spots, even for mature programs.

This session brings together insights from 500+ of your industry peers and real-world recaptured data trends from the criminal underground to shed light on what teams are still grappling with, and what’s working. You’ll walk away with clear benchmarks for your identity security program, and four pragmatic actions to bridge the confidence gap heading into 2026.

Regulatory expectations have surged and so has executive accountability. Whether it’s SEC cyber disclosures, DORA’s operational resilience mandates, or AI governance frameworks, organizations must now demonstrate control, transparency, and readiness. This discussion brings together security, legal, and finance perspectives on building scalable compliance systems that don’t drain resources. Discover how to automate evidence collection, maintain board-level reporting readiness, and shift from reactive compliance to proactive assurance. Governance is no longer a cost center—it’s a strategic differentiator.

Unlock insights into the evolving landscape of talent deployment and retention as board expectations drive CIOs to rethink traditional IT talent models. Explore the impact of GenAI on coding processes and the software engineering lifecycle,and discover strategies for optimizing talent allocation and headcounts. Gain actionable insights into defining new roles, cultivating essential skills,and charting GenAI-centric career paths to align with organizational goals and stayahead in a rapidly changing technological landscape.

Scot Miller, Risk and Security Executive, Rocket, shares his personal approach to building a resilient and high-performing cybersecurity culture. Through real stories, humor, and hard-earned lessons, Scot explores how leadership, authenticity, and human connection shape the DNA of a security organization. From “5 Beers” and “Whiskey @ Night” to the power of presence, storytelling, and governance, this talk dives into the practical tactics that foster trust, reduce infighting, and create a sense of community. If you’ve ever wondered how to truly build culture—not just talk about it—this is the session for you.

Generative AI is no longer a buzzword — it’s a catalyst reshaping how organizations innovate, compete, and deliver value. As enterprises move from experimentation to execution, the real question becomes: how do we harness GenAI to transform, not just automate?

In this forward-looking session, we’ll explore the next wave of Generative AI advancements and their profound impact across industries — from revolutionizing customer engagement to accelerating product development, streamlining operations, and enabling entirely new business models.

Leaders will share practical strategies for turning GenAI ambition into measurable outcomes, discuss the evolving balance between innovation and regulation, and reveal how to build trust, scale responsibly, and stay ahead in an AI-driven economy.
