HACKING OUR DEFENSES
As cyberattacks become more sophisticated and more frequent, the stakes for companies protect their data and people have never been higher. Leaders in global payments and
enterprise technology will share insights on how threats are evolving—and what’s needed to stay prepared. Topics will include growing risks across regions, the role of AI in both attacks and defense, and why security is as much about people and processes as it is about tools. What does it really take to stay resilient in a world where every vulnerability can become a headline? And what bold moves should leaders make now to harden their defenses before the next breach?
