2025 WA Cyber Security Leadership Summit

2025 WA Cyber Security Leadership Summit

6th & 7th August
The Westin Perth

The WA Cyber Security Leadership Summit survey from last year highlighted over 25 business priorities from attendees, including digital transformation, cost reduction, and enhancing operational efficiency. Cybersecurity leaders continue to prioritise strategy, risk management, business continuity planning, governance, and collaboration as they navigate the evolving business landscape.

Operating under high pressure, cyber security leaders play a crucial role in strengthening infrastructure, ensuring compliance, managing incidents, and fostering collaboration. They are leveraging both business and technical knowledge to enhance security resilience and preparedness.

The themes of governance, leadership, and collaboration are consistently woven into our programs, and this year is no exception. Through discussion and knowledge-sharing, the 2025 program will explore the intersection of business objectives, data protection, security principles, cyber security posture, risk assessments, human behaviour and literacy. These discussions aim to help attendees develop their own strategies and roadmaps for navigating the cyber landscape beyond 2025.
