In the fast-evolving world of cybersecurity, staying ahead of the curve is more critical than ever. The NEXTGEN Overwatch Cyber Security Forum 2024, part of NEXTGEN's 2024 Leadership Series, offers a unique opportunity for decision-makers to gain the insights needed to protect their organizations in this complex landscape. This online-only event promises a comprehensive 360-degree discussion on the most pressing issues in cybersecurity today.

The event is designed for end-user and reseller decision-makers, including CEOs, CISOs, CTOs, CIOs, and senior technical and sales leaders. With a lineup of leading policymakers, venture capitalists, and technology strategists, the forum will explore how organizations should be recalibrating their cyber strategies and leveraging technological innovations to ensure both safety and success in the next 12-24 months.

Cyber and Its Impacts on Society
The forum kicks off with a session on "Cyber and Its Impacts on Society," featuring Victor Dominello, a former senior minister of the NSW Government, alongside industry leaders Iain Rouse from AWS and Phil Goldie from Okta. This discussion will delve into the collective responsibility of cybersecurity across government, businesses, and individuals. Drawing from Dominello’s extensive ministerial experience, the session will highlight the delicate balance between enhancing security measures and managing user friction, as well as the growing importance of trust in the brand promise of digital service providers. Attendees will gain valuable insights into how to navigate the complex intersection of cybersecurity and societal expectations.

Cyber, AI, and the Cloud
Artificial Intelligence and the Cloud are transforming industries at an unprecedented pace, and their impact on cybersecurity is both exhilarating and daunting. In the session "Cyber, AI, and the Cloud," expert panelists from leading technology firms, including AWS, CrowdStrike, Oracle, and Proofpoint, will explore the dual nature of AI—its potential to revolutionize business and the associated risks. As AI becomes more integrated into everyday operations, the challenge of staying secure while harnessing its transformative power grows. This session will provide actionable strategies for maintaining control and security as your organization embraces these emerging technologies, allowing you to innovate confidently.

The Legislative Landscape
As cybersecurity threats evolve, so too does the regulatory environment. "The Legislative Landscape" session, featuring Hamish Hansford, FedGov Deputy Secretary, Cyber & Infrastructure Security Group, and Derek Dalton from Lelantus, will offer a deep dive into the latest legislative developments. The Australian Government’s holistic strategy to enhance cyber maturity across the economy includes significant changes to the regulatory framework, developed through extensive industry consultation and co-design. This session will help attendees understand their roles and responsibilities within this framework, ensuring they are well-prepared to meet the new compliance requirements and contribute to a more secure digital economy.

What’s Coming Next – The VC View Over the Horizon
The rapid proliferation of AI is creating new challenges and opportunities in the cybersecurity landscape, particularly in areas like AI security, compliance, and third-party risk management. In the final session, "What’s Coming Next – The VC View Over the Horizon," cyber-focused venture capitalists Dave DeWalt (NightDragon) and Saad Siddiqui (Titanium Ventures) will share their perspectives on how investment strategies are shifting to address these emerging concerns. As the gap between AI development and cybersecurity investment continues to widen, understanding how VCs are positioning themselves to close this gap will be crucial for organizations looking to stay ahead of the curve.

Engage and Explore
Between these sessions there are industry expert panels providing perspective and analysis on the topics discussed from those dealing with the day-to-day realities of implementation. And there is a virtual expo to enable participants to connect with sponsoring vendors, for deeper exploration of the latest cybersecurity solutions and innovations.
