ABOUT THE GCC CYBER SECURITY SUMMIT
"Creating and executing a comprehensive cyber-security strategy has to be at the top of any leader's agenda now. This isn't a nice-to-have, this is essential work."
– Dr Jonathan Reichental, Chief Information Officer, City of Palo Alto, California
The GCC CYBER SECURITY SUMMIT in September 2015 will bring together regional and international thought leaders and decision-makers to examine one of the most vital threats to the region’s future well-being: cyber-attack.
Penetration of national and company security, criminal fraud and identity theft are now big business worldwide among a shadowy fraternity that is only growing in power and size. Recent incidents with film studios, healthcare providers and global banks continue to resonate in cabinet offices and boardrooms everywhere.
But what are the true, current threat perspectives here? How can we learn and network about the latest advances in cyber defence and resilience? Where are the ever-evolving strategic solutions necessary to protect the six GCC nations and their economies?
The GCC CYBER SECURITY SUMMIT will specifically bring together key international and regional experts over a two day period to provide collective guidance and analysis. They will examine regional threat perceptions, risks and solutions; they will assess how attacks on critical infrastructure have been and should be handled – above all, they will discuss how best to ensure secure government and business continuity.
As cyber security cannot be contained and outsourced to any one sector, due to the vast scope of cyber threats, it requires active engagement of all stakeholders, including government and private entities and organizations – large and small – across every official and business activity.
The GCC CYBER SECURITY SUMMIT will accordingly serve Central and Local Government, Critical Infrastructure, Energy and Utilities, Telecommunications, Technology Industries, Research and Development Organizations, Health Sector, Security and Intelligence Services, Police Services and Crime Prevention, Finance and Banking, Pharma, Transportation, Communication Networks, the Retail Sector and individual consumers.
