Overview

Join us for our IDC event at the intersection of cloud transformation and cybersecurity strategy. As digital infrastructure becomes more decentralised, intelligent, and interconnected, this summit will explore how organisations can innovate through cloud technologies while maintaining the highest levels of security and trust.

Security & Cloud 2025 brings together CIOs, CISOs, IT leaders, and cloud experts to discuss how to securely scale cloud operations, harness the power of AI, and protect digital assets in an increasingly complex threat landscape. Discover how cloud and security are no longer separate conversations—but a unified strategy critical to business success.

Gain actionable insights into:

  • Building secure, scalable, and agile cloud environments
  • Implementing AI and automation in both security operations and cloud-native apps
  • Aligning cloud strategies with enterprise risk management and regulatory requirements
  • Tackling the talent shortage in cloud and security disciplines
  • Driving digital transformation securely—with innovation and resilience at the core
