Agenda

11:00 - 12:00 CET
Shaping the Future of Application Delivery, Infrastructure, and Platforms
Hosted by Cloudflare
In today’s challenging economy, it’s essential for organisations to modernise not just their security applications, but also their infrastructure and platforms. Carrying technical debt isn’t just an IT issue—it slows down business progress and increases security risks. For CIOs, it blocks real transformation. For CISOs, it creates a larger attack surface, which is even harder to manage as AI and cyber threats evolve.
Join this town hall to gain insights on:
- The converging forces of agentic AI, the sophistication of cyber threats, and surging user expectations for seamless, personalised digital experiences
- The importance of unified, security-by-design platforms for defending against advanced cyber threats while maintaining performance
- Approaches for meeting rising user expectations and fostering a culture that drives disciplined, confident modernisation across the organisation
