Our key themes for 2026

Shifting the centre of gravity

Embedding security into leadership behaviours, strategic priorities and operational norms through culture, capability and shared responsibility.

AI in question

Examining AI’s real impact on the threat landscape from how it changes attacker tactics to how defenders prepare, respond, and lead their organisations.

Your risk, my problem

Moving from tick-box compliance to genuine shared responsibility, protecting the business from vulnerabilities across the supply chain.

Mindset over tools 

Empowering individuals to prevent and respond to cyber risks by fostering a resilient, cyber-conscious mindset that becomes second nature in daily life.
