Presented by Chad Spoden, Sr Information Security Consultant, Solution Architect Manager • FRSecure

The result of over 100 incident cases handled by the FRSecure response team in the last two years, Sr Information Security Consultant Chad Spoden will dive into the latest threats and response techniques you need to know—and what you can do to minimize the risk and impact of similar events. The breakdown will cover Business Email Compromise, Ransomware, and Internal Compromise. You can’t afford to miss it!

Most security programs measure effort — not outcomes. Organizations patch thousands of vulnerabilities, deploy dozens of tools, and run annual tabletop exercises… but when an attacker shows up, none of that matters.

What matters is whether they can prove their defenses actually work.

In this talk, Horizon3 shares how leading organizations are using autonomous pentesting to see their environment through the attacker’s eyes — continuously, safely, and at scale. By shifting from assumptions to proof, they’ve learned to:

• Prioritize what’s exploitable. Focus limited resources on the weaknesses that truly put the business at risk that are known to be abused by threat actors.
• Quickly fix what matters. Close the loop from find → fix → verify and reduce your exploitable attack surface.
• Reduce attacker dwell time. Use pentest results to precisely deploy honeyTokens to detect compromise early, and to continuously prove your EDR and SIEM are tuned and working as intended.

Cyber resilience isn’t about being perfect — it’s about getting better over time. And the only perspective that truly matters is the attacker’s.

Not all Copilot experiences are created equal—so are you getting a free ride, or flying first class?

In this session, Chris Watson cuts through the hype to show what Microsoft Copilot actually delivers at the basic level—and what changes when you move to premium. Through real-world scenarios and practical demonstrations, you’ll see where Copilot saves time, where it falls short, and where premium features unlock real business value across Teams, Outlook, Excel, and security workflows.

Whether you're evaluating Copilot or already rolling it out, you’ll leave with a clear understanding of what you’re paying for—and how to make it worth it.

As artificial intelligence accelerates the evolution of cyber threats, organizations require a holistic approach to risk management. Rather than waiting for compliance standards to catch up, businesses must dynamically leverage their Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) frameworks alongside advanced technical protections. By combining proactive governance with forward-thinking security measures, you can build a comprehensive defense to safeguard your organization against tomorrow's AI-driven attacks.

Join our Senior Cybersecurity & vCIO Architect to learn:

• How the rapid advancement of AI is altering the cybersecurity threat landscape
• Strategies for identifying and mitigating emerging risks before they become active threats
• How to utilize GRC frameworks dynamically to build a proactive security posture
• The importance of implementing advanced technical protections beyond baseline compliance
• Why waiting for regulatory mandates leaves your organization vulnerable
• How to create a holistic defense strategy that integrates governance with modern security tools
• Best practices for evaluating and deploying next-generation protections to secure your environment
