Unmasking the Cyber Threats: A Forecast for 2025 and Beyond
The rapid advancement of emerging technologies such as 5G, blockchain, artificial intelligence (AI), and quantum computing presents both unprecedented opportunities and new challenges for cybersecurity. In this presentation, we will explore the evolving landscape of cybersecurity threats as these technologies continue to mature and become more integrated into critical infrastructure. By 2025 and beyond, the proliferation of 5G will amplify the attack surface, while blockchain’s decentralized nature will redefine trust and authentication protocols. AI will play a dual role, both as a tool for enhancing cybersecurity defenses and as a potential weapon for malicious actors. Additionally, the rise of quantum computing promises to revolutionize encryption, potentially rendering current systems obsolete. This forecast will address the intersection of these technologies, the cybersecurity risks they pose, and strategies for staying ahead of adversaries in an increasingly interconnected and complex digital world.

Breaking Barriers: How Zero Trust and Data-Centric Security
Empower Information Sharing
In today’s digital landscape, security professionals often face the challenge of balancing robust protection with the need for seamless information sharing. Traditionally, security measures can be perceived as barriers—where the instinct is to clamp down and restrict access. However, with the adoption of Zero Trust and Data-Centric Security, security mechanisms can shift from being obstacles to enablers of secure collaboration and information exchange.
This presentation will highlight how Zero Trust and Data-Centric Security not only enhance security but also support greater information sharing and collaboration amongst teams. Join us as we share examples and demonstrate how organisations can create a secure foundation for information exchange, empowering teams while mitigating risks and ensuring compliance with regulatory standards.

Detecting Threat in Early Stage with NetScout Adaptive Threat
Analytics
Attackers are using stealthy techniques to stay under the radar for longer periods as an Advanced Persistent Threat (APT). This entails maintaining undetected access within a victim’s organization to wait for opportunities or to slowly live off the land, move laterally, escalate privileges and exfiltrate information. The challenge is reliably and early detecting the malware when it’s present and stopping it by blocking communication to its C2 infrastructure for further instruction. See how NetScout help
on the Early Detection of Threat and protecting critical data from breaches using Adaptive Threat Analytics based on “Scalable DPI and ML driven DDoS mitigation..

Securing the Future: Addressing AI's Biggest Security Risks
AI is reshaping the landscape of cybercrime, making attacks faster, smarter, and harder to detect. Phishing scams, once crude and easy to spot, now mimic real conversations with uncanny accuracy, slipping past security filters with ease. Nation-state hackers exploit AI to breach crypto platforms, using deepfakes and automated exploits to manipulate trust. Meanwhile, cybercriminals harness AI to fuel espionage, spread disinformation, and develop malware that evolves on its own. Even privacy is under siege, as AI sifts through vast datasets to uncover hidden details. As these threats grow
more sophisticated, the race to defend against them has never been more urgent.
