The UK public sector is under unprecedented pressure to secure vital services while adapting to new regulations, budget constraints, and disruptivetechnologies. Traditional approaches to cybersecurity are no longer enough. To remain resilient, public bodies must embrace a future-ready modelbuilt on three pillars: strong governance, intelligent automation, and a culture of shared responsibility.
This exclusive event brings together cybersecurity leaders, practitioners, and technology innovators to examine what “future-ready” really means inpractice. Through keynote sessions, case studies, and a live fireside chat, we will explore how automation and AI can ease the burden onoverstretched teams, how resilient data protection ensures service continuity in the face of ransomware, and how a proactive approach to culture andtraining transforms the so-called “weakest link” into a first line of defence.
Attendees will gain practical insights into embedding automation within security operations, reducing compliance risk while meeting evolving regulatoryrequirements, and creating a measurable culture of security awareness across their organisations. Alongside thought leadership from Insight, guestspeakers from our partner ecosystem will share real-world examples of resilience in action across healthcare, central government, education, andlocal services.
Designed for senior IT, security, and digital leaders, this half-day session will provide both strategic vision and actionable takeaways - equipping publicsector organisations to protect services today while preparing confidently for the technologies and challenges to come.
Together, we’ll explore:
- Embedding automation and AI into security operations to reduce analyst fatigue, improve detection, and accelerate response.
- Strengthening governance and compliance frameworks with integrated security platforms that simplify oversight and meet evolving regulatoryrequirements.
- Building a resilient security culture that closes the human gap through AI-driven awareness, adaptive training, and measurable behaviour change.
