Sprawling Identities

As AI-driven threats rise and identities sprawl, how do you keep security from slowing growth?

Join us to explore this topic

"Cybersecurity is now a business-critical issue, not just IT. As digital estates grow, attackers are outpacing traditional defences."

IBM, 2026

AI is becoming the next big test of enterprise scale, speed and resilience. By 2029, 50% of cloud resources will be devoted to AI workloads, up from less than 10% today [Gartner, 2026]. To keep pace, 90% of organisations will adopt a hybrid cloud approach through 2027, giving them the flexibility to scale AI, move faster and retain control over critical on-prem environments [Gartner, 2026].


But for you as a security leader, the goalposts keep moving. The rulebook has shifted from castle-and-moat protection to endpoint security, and now to something far more complex. As data, applications, users and machine identities fragment across datacentres, cloud and edge, the challenge is no longer defending one perimeter, it’s enforcing consistent Zero Trust across a network that never sits still [HPE, 2026].


With Mythos-style threats now in play, join us as we discuss how leaders are securing increasingly complex hybrid workloads before they are forced back into reactive mode.

An intimate dinner at a Michelin-starred location

29th July 2026 // City Social // 6:30-9:30 PM

Jason Atherton’s handsome restaurant on the 24th floor of Tower 42 is dark and moody, with a subtle art deco twist. It boasts impressive views of the City skyline and the menu offers generous modern European dishes including multiple cuts of Cumbrian beef cooked on the Josper grill, from rib-eye to sirloin. The wine list offers an appealing mixture of prices and styles, and there are noteworthy cocktails too.
