Infosecurity Europe Conference
Ransomware, Quantum Computing, Geopolitics, GenAI, and More on the Agenda

This June, Infosecurity Europe brings together cybersecurity experts at London’s Excel Exhibition Centre for a comprehensive exploration of pressing topics. Spanning from Tuesday to Thursday, the conference will spotlight critical discussions on quantum computing, geopolitical threats, and the ever-evolving landscape of ransomware.
High-profile hosts include prominent figures such as Mikko Hypponen from WithSecure, social engineering specialist Jenny Radcliffe, and Graham Cluley of Smashing Security. They will address emerging threats, including ransomware and supply chain vulnerabilities, amidst ongoing concerns regarding cybercrime.
The agenda features a robust lineup of sessions focusing on the nexus of technology and security. Among the highlights are talks on black holes and quantum computing by physicist Brian Cox, who will delve into the implications for future computing paradigms. A session led by security experts will examine the implications of post-quantum computer standards, detailing the “harvest now, decrypt later” strategies that organizations must prepare for, representing a significant step in the MITRE framework, particularly under initial access and privilege escalation tactics.
As part of the exploration of geopolitical influences on cybersecurity, Paul Chichester from the U.K.’s National Cyber Security Center will shed light on the evolving threat landscape and best practices for organizational defense. This emphasis on real-time threat analysis and adaptation resonates with persistence tactics outlined in the MITRE ATT&CK framework.
A panel focusing on generative AI will discuss the double-edged sword of this technology, highlighting how deepfakes and social engineering present new challenges for cybersecurity professionals. Strategies to counter these threats will align with mitigation approaches for reconnaissance and execution tactics as categorized by MITRE.
On subsequent days, attendees can anticipate more sessions on ransomware’s evolution and the strategic allocation of security budgets. Cybersecurity leaders will share insights on maximizing ROI amidst growing scrutiny from regulatory bodies. This is particularly relevant in light of new legislation impacting compliance measures, echoing the need for vigilance outlined in the MITRE framework’s defense strategy categories.
The conference not only promises to update businesses on critical cybersecurity issues but aims to cultivate a proactive approach in mitigating risks associated with emerging threats. Attendees and industry experts alike are encouraged to connect and share insights that will better prepare organizations for an increasingly complex cybersecurity landscape.
The upcoming conference is poised to be a vital platform for businesses aiming to enhance their understanding of evolving cybersecurity challenges and methodologies. We look forward to engaging with industry leaders to foster a stronger resilience against cyber threats.
