[1 CPE] Building Trust for What’s Next: PKI Modernization & Quantum Readiness

  Presented by Doug Knight, RVP, Solutions Engineer • DigiCert

Certificate lifetimes are shrinking. Browser requirements are evolving. Machine identities are growing exponentially. At the same time, organizations are beginning to plan for post-quantum cryptography while supporting new AI-driven systems that depend on trusted digital interactions.

These changes are transforming PKI from a traditional security function into the operational trust layer for modern business.

This session provides a practical roadmap for modernizing PKI, improving visibility into machine identities, automating certificate lifecycle management, and building crypto-agility for future cryptographic transitions. Attendees will leave with actionable steps to reduce operational risk today while preparing for post-quantum security and the next generation of digital trust.

[1 CPE] Empower AI with Security by Design

  Presented by Palo Alto Networks

As AI rapidly transitions from experimental chat tools to the backbone of enterprise software, organizations face a critical turning point in securing their modern application stack. You’re invited to this exclusive workshop, “”Empower AI with Security by Design,”” to safely accelerate AI adoption without exposing sensitive data. In this session, we demonstrate how embedding real-time guardrails directly into the AI lifecycle enables teams to innovate at machine speed without increasing their attack surface.

Participants will gain actionable insights into our comprehensive approach to securing custom AI applications and enterprise usage – Powered by Precision AI™. Whether your teams use AI code assistants, build custom agentic applications, or govern employee access to public tools, this session delivers the definitive framework to address your AI strategy.

[1 CPE] Five Pillars of AI Security

  Presented by Structured

Artificial intelligence is rapidly expanding across employee productivity tools, autonomous agents, software development, SaaS platforms, cloud workloads, and privately hosted models. This growth creates security challenges that cannot be addressed with just isolated products or policies. The Five Pillars of AI Security framework provides a practical strategy for enabling AI adoption while managing risk across five essential areas: Data Security, Identity Security, Workload Security, Network Security, and Governance. The framework helps organizations govern and protect the data accessible to AI, control human and non-human identities, secure AI runtimes and infrastructure, gain visibility into AI traffic, and establish effective policy and oversight. We’ll combine solutions from leading technology partners with assessment, roadmap, implementation, and continuous-assurance services, allowing each organization to start with its most pressing risks and develop a prioritized security program that supports responsible and scalable AI adoption.

[1 CPE] Extending Network Flexibility with EVPN

  Presented by Josh Miller, Channel Systems Engineer • HPE

Explore when and why EVPN can be a valuable approach for modern campus and branch networks. This session will cover practical use cases and considerations for deploying EVPN, followed by a look at how straightforward implementation can be within a Mist-managed environment.

[1 CPE] Data Resilience in the Age of Attack: Protect What Matters

  Presented by Landra Pierce, Product Strategy Technologist • Veeam

Cyberattacks are no longer a distant threat; they are a reality every IT team must be prepared for. When an attack occurs, your data becomes both the primary target and the key to recovery. Many organizations still rely on backup strategies that are designed for hardware failures or accidental deletions, rather than today’s threats, like ransomware, insider risk, and automated attacks. This disconnect creates vulnerabilities, especially when backups become an overlooked entry point in your security strategy. In this session, we will address these challenges to help you better protect your organization.

This session is ideal for IT professionals who want greater confidence in safeguarding their data and peace of mind. We will examine the most common oversights that leave organizations, including those in government, education, healthcare, and other sectors, exposed to cyberthreats. You’ll discover how teams are advancing beyond basic backup to adopt a cyber-ready approach, including topics like immutability, threat awareness, rapid recovery, and intelligent automation.

Our focus will be practical and grounded in real-world scenarios, and what truly works when pressure is high and time is limited. Because when every minute counts and trust is at stake, data resilience means more than surviving an attack. It’s about protecting what matters most and emerging even stronger.

[1 CPE] Securing the AI Era: Protecting Your Organization from the Latest AI Threats

  Presented by Ryan Dennison, Inside Channel Account Manager • ESET

Artificial Intelligence is transforming the way organizations operate, but it is also creating new opportunities for cybercriminals. From AI-powered phishing and deepfake impersonation attacks to advanced malware and automated social engineering, businesses face an evolving threat landscape that demands next-generation protection.

In this session, we’ll discuss innovative security capabilities designed to safeguard users, devices, and data. Attendees will get an exclusive look at the newest AI-powered security enhancements launching this month. Join us to discover how your organization can embrace AI with confidence while staying protected against the threats of tomorrow.

[1 CPE] Technology Leading the Way in Spokane Wildfire Relief Efforts

  Presented by Dan Wordell, Chief Information Security Officer & Kevin Freibott, Sr Planner • City of Spokane

Join Dan Wordell and Kevin Freibott from the City of Spokane as they share how the City leveraged Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to power the response and recovery effort following this summer’s devastating wildfires. They’ll offer an inside look at how technology helped ensure that both response and recovery were driven by accurate, up-to-date information — and highlight the constellation of data sources and tools deployed by the City, the County, and the region during a fast-moving emergency where good information helped save homes and rebuild lives.

This past August, the Spokane region battled the fastest-spreading wildland fire in state history — a blaze that outpaced every effort to contain it. The Old Trails Fire tore through the City in a single day, destroying more than 500 homes and countless other structures across the City and surrounding County. New technologies proved critical both as the fire spread and throughout the recovery phase once the fires were under control.

Spokane has since announced a coordinated set of ordinances to ease the recovery process, including permit fee waivers, like-for-like rebuilding permissions, General Facilities Charge waivers, and more. The City also launched a new damage assessment and recovery dashboard, giving residents, staff, and partners across the City and County timely, accurate insight into structural damage.

These efforts were driven by cutting-edge assessment and analysis technologies — near-real-time imagery capture, satellite hotspot mapping, up-to-the-minute burn area data, and AI-assisted Pictometry and terrain comparisons that flagged likely damage before City staff could physically reenter burned areas. Just two days after the fire began, the City stood up a custom mobile application for on-site staff, enabling live damage assessment collection with built-in accuracy checks and multi-source confirmation. These efforts will be discussed and explored further during this session.
