  Multi Dimensional Defense in an Era of Escalating Cyber Risk - [KEY-T09Y]
  Our cyber risk is rising to unprecedented levels as our dependence on technology grows. Cyber attacks carry tangible, real world consequences which ripple through societies and supply chains. Today’s connected web of threat actors is blurring boundaries and amplifying impact. In a world where cyber threats are multi-dimensional, our approach to defending our societies must match that.

  Integrous System Design - [KEY-W09Y]
  Integrity is critical to many modern cyber applications: car-to-car communications, smart power grids, mesh networking, AI agents. Yet its long been ignored by security professionals. This talk lays out the key questions of integrous system design -- they're both difficult and subtle. The 1990s was all about availability. The 2000s and 2010s: confidentiality. Welcome to the age of integrity.

  The Great Cyber Misconceptions: How Security Stories Mislead Us - [KEY-R02Y]
  Cybersecurity loves a good story, but many of our favorite narratives are wildly misleading. In this energetic, demo-rich keynote, James Lyne challenges the assumptions that shape modern cyber thinking. AI driven cybergeddon? Quantum bomb? Multi-billion cybercriminal market innovation? Let’s close the gap between perception and reality, have some fun, and make better security decisions.
