Princeton, NJ, June 08, 2024 — Southeast Asia’s rapid digital transformation has established the region as a global nexus for finance and commerce, but it has also heightened its vulnerability to cyberthreats. In response to this urgent need for robust cybersecurity measures in this region, ISMG is pleased to announce Southeast Asia Summit 2024: Cybersecurity and CIO.inc Business Transformation Conferences, a two-day virtual event set for June 6 and 7, 2024.
Under the central theme “Leadership, Strategic Innovation and Cybersecurity Defense,” the summit will bring together industry leaders, technology experts and decision-makers from across SEA to explore the latest advancements and strategies in technology and cybersecurity. This event aims to provide critical insights into managing emerging risks and leveraging technological innovations for business growth and resilience.
According to PwC’s Digital Trust Insights 2023: The Southeast Asia Perspective, cyberattacks in SEA have surged in tandem with increased digitalization of operations, with a 28% rise since the start of the decade. In light of this concerning trend, the SEA summit’s advisory committee has curated a comprehensive agenda to equip organizations with the necessary knowledge and strategies to navigate the evolving cybersecurity landscape.
The summit features two separately themed days, with Day 1 dedicated to the “ISMG Cybersecurity Conference” and Day 2 focused on the “CIO.inc Business Transformation Conference.”
Day 1 of the summit will kick off with a keynote address by Esti Peshin, vice president, general manager of the cyber division at Israel Aerospace Industries. Peshin will delve into how innovation, business success and cybersecurity preparedness will intersect in today’s digital economy, highlighting digital transformation and cybersecurity challenges of the AI era.
In a plenary session titled “AI’s Influence on Cybersecurity Leadership, Innovation and Defense,” Axiata Chief Risk and Compliance Officer Abid Adam will explore the evolving cybersecurity landscape and the strategic imperative of integrating AI into cybersecurity frameworks.
On Day 2, the focus shifts to the CIO.inc Business Transformation Conference, which is centered around the role of technology in driving business growth and resilience. In the session “The Upcoming Age: AI’s Influence on Technology Innovation,” Arlene Romasanta, director IV at the Department of Environment and Natural Resources, will share insights on how AI can be seamlessly integrated into businesses, transforming operations and fostering innovation across industries.
Zaved Akhtar, chairman and managing director of Unilever Bangladesh, will deliver a CEO keynote on “CEO Priorities in 2024: Impact and Strategies for CIOs.” This session will cover aligning technology strategies with broader corporate objectives, emphasizing data-driven decision-making and talent development to achieve business goals.

QG Media, an ISMG Company, Unveils Cyber Security for Critical Assets Canada Summit
Princeton, NJ, June 08, 2024 –The annual Cyber Security for Critical Assets (CS4CA) Canada summit is set to return to Calgary on June 11 and 12, 2024. The premier event provides a crucial platform for senior security leaders amid the backdrop of Canada’s increasingly intricate cyberthreat landscape. The summit’s sessions are tailor-made for practitioners looking to unlock the transformative potential of AI-driven innovations within the country’s critical infrastructure sectors.
In the wake of escalating geopolitical tensions, fluctuating economic conditions, and the relentless digital transformation efforts undertaken by Canadian organizations, the need for robust cybersecurity measures has never been more critical. The Canadian Centre for Cyber Security’s National Cyber Threat Assessment 2023-2024 has sounded the alarm, warning that state-sponsored and financially motivated cyberthreats are increasingly likely to impact Canadians, with foreign actors employing misinformation, and disinformation tactics to exploit vulnerabilities.
The stakes are high, as evidenced by the staggering increase in ransom demands, with the average ransom paid rising to a staggering CAD 1.13 million in 2023 – a 150% surge in just two years. Major Canadian organizations, including Indigo and Sobeys, and critical infrastructure, such as the Town of Huntsville, City of Hamilton, Toronto Zoo, Toronto Public Library, Suncor Energy Inc., and The Hospital for Sick Children, have fallen victim to cyber incidents in recent years.
Faced with this dynamic landscape, the CS4CA Canada Summit emerges as a critical platform for cybersecurity professionals, IT and OT leaders, CISOs, CIOs, heads of cybersecurity, automation and process control engineers, and SCADA/ICS security engineers to collaborate, share insights, and chart a course toward a more secure future.
“The CS4CA Canada Summit represents a unique convergence of expertise and vision, as we navigate the complexities of protecting critical assets amid rapid technological changes,” said Kudsia Kaker, managing director, QG Media. “As industries become increasingly interconnected, the summit offers a vital platform for leaders to discuss proactive defenses and share best practices that will define the resilience of Canada’s economic and security landscapes. We’re moving beyond traditional security measures to forge a future where cybersecurity is inherent to operational success.”
Navigating the Evolving Threat Landscape
As more OT systems connect to the internet, the risk of disruptions to critical infrastructure grows, enabling cyberthreats activities to impact the physical world. Jeff Brown, Western Canada leader for operational technology at Fortinet, will share insights on transitioning from risk recognition to a responsive OT cybersecurity strategy. He will also delve into assessing risk and formulating risk strategies, the current and future state of OT, and how a platform approach to OT cybersecurity can address past, present, and future challenges.
The summit will also feature a panel discussion on navigating Canada’s evolving threat landscape, moderated by Ken Anderson, chief security architect at ATCO. The panel will feature Kayode Alawonde, principal information security officer at BHP Canada; Roger Dery, IT director at Rockpoint Gas Storage; and Tara Mulrooney, VP of technology at Edmonton Airport. The experts will discuss the biggest cyber challenges facing critical infrastructure, strategies for increasing cyber resilience, and the role of governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) in mitigating emerging threats.
Adapting to the Regulatory Landscape
As the Canadian government prepares to introduce Bill C-26, a comprehensive legislative initiative to enhance cybersecurity in critical sectors, the summit will host a panel discussion on the necessity of these new standards and regulations. This panel will be moderated by Mulrooney and will feature experts from the Canadian Centre for Cyber Security, Fortinet, and Cybolt, who will examine the business and operational challenges posed by the bill, as well as strategies for compliance.
“At this year’s CS4CA Canada summit, we are setting the stage for breakthroughs in cybersecurity,” said Jennifer Eisenhofer, VP – events, ISMG. “By uniting leading experts from diverse sectors, we facilitate a rich exchange of knowledge and strategies essential for securing our critical assets. This summit is not just about discussing current issues; it’s about shaping the future of cybersecurity through innovative approaches and robust collaborations.”
By bringing industry leaders and experts together, the CS4CA Canada summit embodies the essence of cybersecurity: people protecting people. As an essential convergence point, the summit will address the pressing need for robust human risk management frameworks through a multifaceted lens, paving the way for enhanced organizational resilience against unprecedented cyberthreats.
