Some 40 international speakers are participating in the event, which is divided into eight sessions that will deal with international cooperation in cyber, supply chain security, cyber insurance, government digitalization processes, standardization of digital security, and more.

Among the leading speakers will be Bushra AlBlooshi, head of Research and Innovation at the Dubai Electronic Security Center; Rajesh Pant, national cybersecurity coordinator for the government of India; FireEye CEO, John Watters; Brandon Wales, acting director of the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency; and American cybersecurity expert Tarah Wheeler.                 

Mathias Cormann, Secretary General of the OECD, launched the conference and noted that while the digital acceleration of the past year presents exciting opportunities, there are also great challenges and risks involved, especially in the areas of cyber defense and privacy.
