Critical Infrastructure Protection (CIP)
Cyber incidents affecting critical infrastructure are no longer rare exceptions.
Over the past years, power grids, energy providers, manufacturing plants, hospitals, transport systems, and water utilities across Europe and beyond have experienced serious disruptions caused by cyberattacks.
What has changed fundamentally is the target:
Attackers are increasingly focusing on Operational Technology (OT) — not just traditional IT systems. The consequences go far beyond data loss and can include production outages, physical equipment damage, financial losses, and risks to human safety.
This Cyber Security Knowledge Exchange focuses on one central question:
How can operators of critical infrastructure strengthen safety, reliability, and operational performance under growing cyber pressure?
> Rather than theoretical discussions, the event concentrates on: Recent OT-focused incidents and attack patterns
> Practical lessons learned from real breaches
> Decision-making under pressure
> The integration of cybersecurity into operational continuity and crisis management
This is a focused, invitation-only, half-day event designed for senior practitioners.
We will address questions that many organizations avoid discussing openly:
> Are safety, reliability, and performance truly under control in your OT environment?
< Where do current cyber defense approaches work — and where do they fail?
> Are incident response, business continuity, disaster recovery, and cyber crisis management actually aligned, or still handled in silos?
> A key highlight is a live cyber crisis simulation, exposing how fragmented response structures behave under stress — and what changes when decision-making, communication, and orchestration are treated as a single system.
Among the participants you will meet senior managers from critical infrastructures who are responsible for ensuring business continuity and operational safety.
In addition, leading CISOs, CIOs, and their direct reports from major Swiss companies and organizations will be present to share their perspectives.
To complement this, our expert team will hand-pick 3-4 innovative IT security startups to present short pitches, showcasing some of the most creative and forward-looking cyber defense solutions.
Registration (see above) is required for all events.
