Dramatic advancements in the capabilities of adversary's demand thoughtful uplifts in threat intelligence, visibility, response and recovery
The Cyber Resilience Summit VIC 2027 is a two-stream cyber security conference in Melbourne, bringing together 250+ senior cyber, operational technology and IT leaders from across Victoria to explore rapidly changing threat environment and best practice in building defendable organisations. Key themes of the event include responding to the velocity of AI-enabled attackers, building an actionable threat intelligence discipline, overcoming obstacles in achieving OT isolation and embedding strong business recovery processes.
Join senior leaders at the Cyber Resilience Summit VIC to connect and collaborate across two distinctive streams:
IT Security Stream: Threat intelligence and breach recovery
OT Security Stream: Isolation capabilities and analysis of real world attacks on OT environments
Across 13+ sessions and 25+ speakers, you’ll hear practical insights to help separate the noise from actionable intelligence, responding to a major breach, navigating the AI threat landscape and separating critical OT assets from the internet. This cybersecurity conferences Australia event and cyber risk conference brings together a high-level audience of CISOs, CIOs, Heads of Cyber, Risk and Technology collaborating on strategies that defend modern organisations and the essential services they support. As the premier cyber conference Australia, the Cyber Resilience Summit 2027 equips security leaders with the insights to act.
