Rapidly emerging technologies are redefining cyberspace. Artificial intelligence and machine learning, behaviour analytics, hardware authentication, and virtualised security systems give experts new tools to protect critical data, systems, and infrastructure. Yet the proliferation of smart grids, connected devices, and cloud solutions expose organisations to new vulnerabilities. These innovations are also redefining attack vectors and techniques, creating fresh challenges for those on the frontlines of cybercrime.


This is the Age of Disruption

 

On March 7 2019, Zero Day Con will bring together leading technology firms, industry experts and government officials that will share insights for cybersecurity professionals grappling with the rise of disruptive innovations. Join experts from across the world in an exploration of the emerging technologies redrawing the security landscape.

  • See how bleeding edge applications of AI and machine learning are being deployed to secure data.
  • Explore how the public and private organisations are protecting critical infrastructure while embracing digital transformation
  • Learn about the future of cybersecurity from researchers at global technology companies and government laboratories creating the next generation of solutions.
