Make Your Business a Hard Target for Cybercriminals

When it comes to potential targets for cyberattacks, easier to breach means more likely to fall victim. While you might not be able to influence your perceived value, there are changes that can eliminate your organization from being seen as an easy target. We’ll explore practical tactics to reduce your surface area of attack and controls to prevent lateral movement should a breach occur.

Let’s discuss what we hear about Public & Private cooperation over a cup of coffee and explore some new opportunities with the partners of the event.

How Compliance Shapes Market Behavior and turns into Cyber Resilience

Modern compliance frameworks NIS2, DORA, and the upcoming Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) , standardize expectations across industries, forcing organizations to adopt minimum security baselines, structured risk management, and transparent reporting practices

These unified rules reduce ambiguity in the market, align suppliers and customers around the same obligations, and create predictable security requirements that simplify vendor selection, technology adoption, and internal decision-making.

As organizations mature under these regulations, compliance becomes more than a checklist: it reshapes market behavior, elevates security practices across entire ecosystems, and ultimately transforms baseline regulatory pressure into sustainable, long-term cyber resilience.

Compliance as Guideline: How to deal Security with Efficiency and Effectiveness

Using compliance frameworks as a structured guideline transforms complex security requirements into actionable, prioritized steps and reduces uncertainty in decision-making.

Organizations gain clearer visibility, reduce operational friction, and optimize resources by aligning security controls with existing compliance standards instead of reinventing processes.

This approach accelerates security maturity, increases overall resilience, and enables teams to deliver stronger protection with higher efficiency and measurable effectiveness.

Why understanding relationships between environments is becoming more and more crucial - and what we can do to keep them

The once-simple separation between Production, Testing, and Development has evolved into a complex web of cloud accounts, Kubernetes clusters, and on-premise systems. This sprawling architecture has created a “chaos of permissions” and indirect connections that are increasingly difficult to manage.

In this session, we explore why understanding these intricate relationships is now a critical security requirement. We will discuss how modern systems, including AI agents, can easily find paths around intended limitations, turning what were once “hard” boundaries into trivial hurdles for an attacker.

Finally, we will cover how to gain visibility into this haystack of connections to identify and solve the key issues hidden within.

Time to gather after two main focus areas of the event (One For All and Public & Private Collaboration in Nordics) , and gather our thoughts on it over the lovely seated lunch.
