Security at ESPC

The tech world is evolving faster than ever – and with innovation comes new risks. This year, we introduce the dedicated ESPC Security Track. We have reimagined our agenda to reflect what matters most right now. As digital transformation accelerates and organisations adopt new technologies, cybersecurity has become a critical priority for businesses of all sizes.

From a high-impact keynote to hands-on tutorials and daily sessions, you’ll gain practical insights into defending modern infrastructure, responding to emerging threats, and securing your digital assets.
Don’t miss our standout keynote by renowned cybersecurity expert Paula Januszkiewicz, who will share a hacker’s perspective on the biggest risks of 2026. Pair this with deep-dive full-day tutorials and daily sessions to build your skills, stay ahead of threats, and lead with confidence in a secure digital future.
