Join Illumio at the Gartner Security and Risk Management Summit 2026

The Gartner Security and Risk Management Summit is back June 1–3! Make Illumio your first stop at booth 210 at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center in National Harbor, MD.

We're bringing hands-on demos, executive conversations, and a speaking session focused on one of the most urgent challenges in cybersecurity today: reducing risk in AI environments with Zero Trust.

Here’s everything you need to know about Illumio at the Gartner Security and Risk Management Summit 2026.

Visit Illumio at booth 210

Stop by booth 210 to see what Illumio has been building and talk with our experts about building breach containment for resilient networks.  

Our team will be on hand throughout the summit:

• Monday, June 1 10:15 AM–7:00 PM
• Tuesday, June 2 9:45 AM–7:00 PM
• Wednesday, June 3 9:45 AM–2:00 PM

This year’s in-booth demos go deep on our newest solution, Illumio Insights. Get hybrid, multi-cloud detection and response that surfaces critical threats, delivers breach containment guidance, and streamlines remediation.

You’ll also learn about our expanding ecosystem of integrations that help security teams see more, respond faster, and stop lateral movement before it becomes a breach.  

Don’t miss our speaking session: Reducing Risk in AI Environments with Zero Trust

AI adoption is accelerating and so are the risks that come with it.  

Join Gary Barlet, Illumio Public Sector CTO, on Tuesday, June 2 at 4:15 PM in Theater 1. He’ll show how a Zero Trust strategy built on microsegmentation helps organizations stay ahead of AI-driven threats.

AI tools are moving fast into government and enterprise environments. As they do, they open new attack surfaces and make existing security postures harder to manage. Gary will break down how Zero Trust helps teams find exposure, stop lateral movement across AI workloads, and build a more resilient security architecture, without getting in the way of the innovation they're trying to support.

Join us at the CxO Security Forum Executive Luncheon

Illumio is proud to sponsor the CxO Security Forum Executive Luncheon on Tuesday, June 2 from 12:00–2:00 PM at the Hampton Inn and Suites National Harbor.

This is an invite-only event for senior security leaders. It's a chance to step away from the show floor and have real, focused conversations — the kind that rarely happen in a busy expo hall.

The speaker lineup includes:

• Chase Cunningham ("Dr. Zero Trust") on how AI is changing Zero Trust, defense in depth, and the cyber landscape. ‍
• Josh Woodruff, author of Agentic AI + Zero Trust: A Guide for Business Leaders, on closing the ROI gap and the Zero Trust principles that speed up AI adoption. ‍
• Richard Stiennon, author of Guardians of the Machine Age: Why AI Security Will Define the Future of Digital Defense, bringing over a decade of industry analysis and insights from 11 books. ‍
• Gary Barlet, Lt. Col USAF (Ret.), former CIO of the U.S. Postal Service OIG and Illumio Federal CTO, on putting Zero Trust segmentation to work in high-stakes environments.

Space is limited. Request your invite today!

See Illumio in action at the Microsoft booth

We’ll also be demoing at Microsoft’s booth 717 on Wednesday, June 3 from 12:00–2:00 PM.

This demo shows how Illumio Insights works with Microsoft Defender and Microsoft Sentinel to track and stop lateral movement in real time.

The scenario is simple but familiar: a user downloads something malicious. From there, you'll watch the infected workload spread to others and start exposing sensitive data. Then see how Illumio and Microsoft’s combined tooling steps in, detecting the threat and cutting it off before it can escalate.

If you're already in the Microsoft security ecosystem, this one’s worth your time.

Why attend the Gartner Security and Risk Management Summit 2026

If you lead security at your organization, the Gartner SRM Summit is worth your time.

This year matters more than most. AI is changing the threat landscape fast. At the same time, security teams are being asked to do more with less. The summit puts both challenges front and center.

Each year, thousands of CISOs, security architects, and risk leaders show up to do the hard work, vetting vendors, testing strategies, and getting straight answers from Gartner’s security researchers.

Come find us at booth 210 to see how Illumio is helping organizations stay ahead.

See you in National Harbor!
