With new technology comes new complexity – and new risks. Today, security professionals must manage legacy IT while also deploying AI at scale. They must respond to current regulations while anticipating new ones. They must prepare for post-quantum cryptography while protecting users and data in current hybrid environments. IBM.com©
Hybrid cloud and AI must begin with security—building trustworthy AI to manage risks and compliance, secure data, workloads and identities and protect on-premises and cloud environments. IBM ensures enterprises can innovate with confidence by prioritizing security collaboration, automation, and readiness.
Developing a security architecture is frequently one line in a project plan and uses an ad-hoc approach that struggles to scale for complex systems. This session aims to teach architectural thinking techniques using systematic decomposition for security solution design with the integration of data-centric security, Zero Trust architecture, secure by design, and compliance management
This session explores how AI driven cyber intelligence data can enhance quantified cyber risk models for GRC. Attendees will learn how AI automates risk assessments, provides real-time insights into vulnerabilities, and ensures continuous monitoring for better regulatory compliance. Key takeaways include actionable steps for leveraging AI to strengthen governance and third-party risk management.
In response to a growing volume of cyberattacks, security leaders are now integrating security solutions upfront, rather than stitching them together later. Hear how Kraft Heinz was able to reduce detection and response times by adopting a security platform approach. Hear about research findings on how ‘platformization’ can help accelerate security transformation leveraging AI and Automation.
This talk is a survey of protection for the keys that protect our data. Join for details behind key protection methods, discussion, future work in key protection standards and conclusions on protection methods.

As the countdown to the quantum era begins, ensuring robust cybersecurity measures has never been more crucial. At IBM, we understand the urgency of these times and the need for organizations to build crypto-agility to shield against "Harvest Now, Decrypt Later" scenarios. Join us as we bring together industry thought leaders and security experts like yourself to share insights on accelerating quantum-safe transformation.
In today's digital era, the frequency and sophistication of cyberattacks are on the rise, creating a complex environment for security leaders. Managing multiple security tools across various platforms can be daunting, making it challenging to maintain comprehensive oversight of organizational security. Join IBM during as we discuss the transformative partnership between IBM and Palo Alto Networks, exploring how our collaborative efforts are assisting organizations in optimizing their security protocols and significantly reducing detection and response times.
