- Bar Shira Auditorium
About
The evolution of cybersecurity and emerging technologies impacts the critical infrastructure industry. New technologies such as AI capabilities, as well as machine learning and quantum computing, are already used by states and crime organizations to look for vulnerabilities as well as the introduction of algorithms which were not planned to be secured i.e. open source algorithms and others. The panel will focus on emerging threats, solutions and the processes that governments and the private sector should apply to ensure that identified critical infrastructure is well protected and prepared for the new threats.
