Channel Islands Cyber Security Conference 2024

We were proud Gold Sponsors of the Channel Islands Cyber Security Conference 2024, a premier event dedicated to exploring the latest trends, challenges, and innovations in cyber security. This conference promised a day filled with insightful talks, engaging demonstrations, and dynamic discussions with industry leaders.

We are really pleased to be a gold sponsor at this year’s Channel Islands Information Security Forum (CIISF) 2024. As cyber threats grow increasingly complex, this event provides an invaluable platform for sharing insights and collaborating on defence strategies and response tactics locally. At PwC, our purpose is to build trust in society and solve important problems in a sustained manner and we’re looking forward to collaborating with like minded organisations and hearing from the various exceptional speakers, who will bring their own unique perspectives and invaluable knowledge to the table.

Special Highlight

PwC Channel Islands hosted a talk with Alex Gornõi, the Security Operations Advisory Lead at PwC UK.

In his career he has worked across enterprise cyber security teams, risk and audit, research and development, and consulting. He has presented at cyber intelligence forums in and outside the UK, and has supported investigations feeding into regulatory reporting, law enforcement cases, and statements to UK Parliament committees. His core focus at PwC is on helping client organisations improve cyber operations capability and to respond and recover from cyber incidents.

Presentation Topic: "What's Next for Security Operations? AI, Automation, and Market Trends"

In this compelling session, Alex delved into:

  • The transformative impact of Generative AI (GenAI) on cyber security.
  • The emerging concept of the 'autonomous Security Operations Center (SOC)'.
  • How data and automation were reshaping incident detection and response.
  • Key market trends that were set to redefine security operations.
  • Attendees did not miss the opportunity to gain deep insights into the future of cyber security from a leading industry expert.
