70% of all information security attacks target humans. Only 30% target systems.
Increasing the awareness of employees is therefore the greatest lever for improving the general level of security in a company.
Awareness campaigns are the key to mindful employees.
When building a campaign, many questions arise
In this keynote, Florian Jörgens will give an overview of past awareness campaigns with which he won the Digital Leader Award 2020 in the Cyber Security category.

For years, industrial companies have relied upon air-gapping devices and leveraging proprietary protocols and software to protect their ICS and OT assets. They were insignificant targets for hackers as there were limited networked interfaces to attack and little to gain, or destroy, or take hostage. OT and IT didn’t integrate much and didn’t have the same kinds of vulnerabilities. But this has changed recently.

Why your MFA Will Not Keep The Bad Guys Out
MFA Requirements Have Changed. Cybercriminals have become more sophisticated in their attacks, and traditional MFA that relies on passwords and other weak factors can’t keep up. Remote working has expanded, and rapid cloud adoption demands that companies ensure the identity of the user behind every device, and assess the level of risk before access.
How are you protecting your data from advanced attacks?
Traditional MFA relies on weak factors like passwords and one-time codes.
In this session, learn now you can better protect your organization by eliminating passwords and only use strong factors like asymmetric cryptography and biometrics to protect your organization from phishing, ransomware attacks, and other password-based attacks. Gain control over all users and devices requesting access.

Join the session to hear from Commvault about their experience around successful cyber attacks and their aftermath. How did customers make sure that their data was safe and how did they recover their losses. What worked well and where was room for improvement?

CloudBees
Go Fast, Go Safe. How to achieve the Holy Grail of Software Delivery, with Secure, Compliant Processes that don't slow down your Business.
If 95% of C-Suite Executives say that Software Supply Chain Security is top of mind, but only 23% of them confirm that their Supply Chain Security project is 'almost finished', whilst 75% of them believe that Security can be the 'department of slow', then in reality, how ready are most companies to deploy DevOps at scale, safe in the knowledge that they're both secure and responsive to changing market demands?
Bartosz Niwinski, Sales Director EMEA Central, at CloudBees, will explain why supply chain security is hard to achieve, and why a holistic, ground-up approach to securing the software supply chain (through Development, Delivery and into Production) is the only way to really address the challenge of ensuring secure DevOps.

Building Business Resilience Against Ransomware Attacks With Zero Trust Data Security.
As everyone works in more digital, distributed environments amidst a pervasive new ransomware economy, cyber resilience has become a board-level discussion. IT and Security teams must rethink their approach to data management to reduce the risk of paying ransom payments, while decreasing the mean time to respond and recover when ransomware-attacks occur.

Anke Sax
COO/CTO
KGAL GmbH & Co. KG (KGAL)
Dr. Anke Sax has more than 30 years’ experience in the financial sector, during which time she has been responsible for leading for the digital transformation of a number of prominent businesses. Most recently, she held the role of Chief Information Officer at Deutsche WertpapierService Bank AG (dwpbank) in Frankfurt, having previously been Chief Information Officer at Daimler Financial Services in Stuttgart. She also held the role of CIO Commercial Banking at Commerzbank, where she was responsible for designing and optimising IT systems for payment transactions, financing and data management across the company’s private and corporate customer businesses.
Believe it or not, tech and security leaders aren’t always aligned. The last couple of years put unique stresses and strains on both leaders. It wasn’t long ago that CIOs moved from being technologists to having a much larger role as key strategists for their organisations. Many CISOs found themselves in similar situations going through the pandemic as workers across the globe got thrust into a work-from-home world. Keeping organisations safe and secure moved from a line-item on an agenda to the main initiative at the top of every meeting. CISOs are having a seat at the table more than ever before. Companies had to find a way to work remotely and secure with minimal lead time. For many industries that created tension between the CIO and the CISO. But as our panel will point out, there doesn’t have to be a turf war and a well-planned alignment between the two executives can overcome roadblocks to success and lead organisations to a brighter future. Join this session to find out how an environment that features give-and-take between smart, motivated, and innovative executives can help drive optimal business outcomes.
