GISEC is the leading event for the global cybersecurity community. It is a key force in driving strategic collaborations and empowering the exchange of new-age cybersecurity tactics and ideas.
The event brings together an impressive audience, including top international cybersecurity enterprises, CISOs from major regional and Asian corporations, government dignitaries and cyber leaders. It also attracts regional and international innovators and global experts.
GISEC comprises five main conference tracks. These include Telecom (43 per cent of telecom operators suffered from DNS-based malware attacks in 2019); Energy and Utilities (50 per cent of cyberattacks in the Middle East target this sector); and Finance (a key driver of a 40 per cent increase in security spending).
The tracks also cover Healthcare (more than 28 milion healthcare records were exposed in 2020); and Government (covering issues such as citizen data privacy and safeguarding the connectivity used in autonomous transportation).
GISEC also features the Bug Bounty Challenge. Across three days, hackers and cyber thrill seekers will engage with a community of more than 100 global hackers, bug bounty hunters, InfoSec professionals and government end-users to crack hidden challenges.
