About this Event

Building on the momentum of last year’s discussions, which examined AI’s dual role in both strengthening and threatening cybersecurity, 6th National Cyber Security Event continues the conversation - shifting focus toward Switzerland’s evolving role in the international cyber landscape.

This year’s program will explore several cybersecurity topics close to all of us:

  • We will get insights into the current situation in Switzerland in the context of the overall geopolitical situation, and assess the impact of AI agents on cybersecurity operations, including their practical applications and associated vulnerabilities.
  • Further sessions will examine cyber risks tied to blockchain and smart contracts, and what these mean for compliance, infrastructure, and legal responsibility in the financial and tech sectors. An update on cybersecurity and data protection regulations will provide clarity on what companies need to prepare for in the months ahead.
