Beyond Resilience:
Building Anti-Fragile Cyber Systems
Discover how security can grow stronger under stress. John Kindervag explains anti-fragility through Zero Trust, while Anthony Rodriguez shows how segmentation and dependency mapping uncover risks and speed troubleshooting. Learn new metrics and steps to move beyond traditional resilience.
Modernizing OT Security Without Disruption: A Zero Trust Approach
As IT and OT converge, outdated security is creating new risks. Attackers can move easily between business and industrial systems. Zero Trust creator John Kindervag and NVIDIA’s Ofir Arkin show how applying consistent Zero Trust — using Protect Surfaces, visibility, and AI-driven security — helps you modernize and secure your environment, meet standards, and achieve resilience without disruption.
Fear, Hype, and Reality: What’s Really Breaking Cybersecurity
Cybersecurity’s hardest truths aren’t just uncomfortable — they’re inhibiting resilience. Fear-driven budgets, AI hype, and tool overload dominate the narrative, but what really works? Join this interactive roundtable to dive into the industry’s most pressing realities, challenge myths, and share practical insights that can change the game.
