Opening of the event and welcome by the moderator

Modern attacks are demonstrated on site and viewers are interactively guided through a real cyber attack. The simulation shows how security measures can be effectively applied today to prevent real damage. A particular focus is placed on a security-conscious culture and modern approaches to security awareness.

Cybersecurity meets artificial intelligence - double agent or bodyguard?
Artificial intelligence is both a blessing and a curse: on the one hand, it helps to detect anomalies, but on the other, it can also be used for extremely sophisticated attacks. Deepfakes, generative malware and autonomous attack tools are on the dark side - smart firewalls and adaptive threat detection on the light side. This panel clarifies: Who is currently ahead - man or machine?

When will the quantum threat become real - and how are we already preparing for post-quantum cryptography?
In this discussion, we talk to cryptography professionals, government representatives and tech thought leaders about how real the threat is, what post-quantum methods are waiting in the wings - and whether we need to act today to avoid looking old tomorrow.

Trust is good – but in networked systems, it is often the biggest weak point. This panel highlights the growing threat posed by supply chain attacks and the risks involved in dealing with third-party providers. The focus is on securing complex supply chains, industrial control systems (OT) and critical infrastructures such as energy supply.

The breakthrough of artificial intelligence has been heralded for a long time. But now, with ChatGPT and GPT-4, the social and economic impact is becoming apparent, even to experts who do not always have a complete overview. This lecture places AI in the context of digitalisation, explains the principles and industry dynamics of digital corporations, and illustrates how artificial intelligence is both underestimated and overestimated. And yet it is changing the world.
