An exclusive session by Orange Cyberdefense and Palo Alto Networks

As senior leadership that is responsible for security, your agenda is diverse and full: real cyber risks, compliance pressure, ensuring operational continuity, sovereignty discussions, budget constraints, talent shortages. Finding the right balance is key but challenging.

This exlusive session will get you access to the brains of strategic advisors and peers. You'll step out of day-to-day firefighting and into a high-level peer setting to have a conversation about where board ambition and cyber resilience meet: shaping the SOC of the future together. 

The SOC of the future is not just an operational capability, it is a strategic asset that shapes resilience, competitive advantage, and boardroom confidence. And the decisions that define it don't only belong to the IT or security department.

What to expect:

• Boardroom intelligence
  How threat intelligence becomes boardroom intelligence

• Real business value
  What 'detection and response' means for business continuity and M&A risk.

• Strategic business enabler
  The SOC as an enabler of digital ambition, not just a cost center. 

• Real-world experience
  How a leading organization is making strategic SOC decisions today. 

This session has no product pitches or vendor theatre. Just relevant perspectives, honest discussions, and practical insights followed by a private dinner with peers.
