Who Is Attending?

The Cyber Defence Summit is the only regional platform of its kind in the Middle East. It brings together decision makers from all parts of the region to discuss the need for fool-proof cyber security for its Critical National Infrastructure.

The interactive panel discussions will focus on highlighting and preventing cyber security threats. Solution providers host workshops to educate on the newest technology developments in the fields of banking, telecommunications, oil and gas, energy and utilities, and stock trading. There have been discussions about using legitimate trading systems like eToro to trade digital currencies like Bitcoin, which give high encryption against hackers.
