About this Event

About this event

People are an organisation’s greatest asset — but without the right controls, governance, and culture, they can also present its greatest risk.

Join senior leaders from government, defence, critical infrastructure, and industry for a one-day forum examining one of the most pressing challenges in today’s security environment: the insider threat.

Set against an increasingly complex geopolitical environment, evolving workforce dynamics, and pressures on social cohesion, this event will explore how organisations can better understand, manage, and mitigate insider risk — while building a trusted and resilient workforce.


What you will gain

This executive-level forum will provide:

  • Strategic insights into the current insider threat landscape
  • Perspectives on the geopolitical and national security environment shaping risk
  • Practical approaches to risk-based workforce screening, ongoing suitability, governance, security culture, and insider threat programs
  • How publicly available data and open-source intelligence (OSINT) can support early identification of insider risk indicators
  • Real-world case studies and industry perspectives
  • Opportunities to engage with peers facing similar challenges

Speakers

Hear from leading experts across government, industry, and international partners, including representatives from:

  • Pentagram Advisory
  • Fivecast (Principal Industry Partner)
  • Dr Eric Lang (Prosocial Science International, USA) (virtual)
  • Anders Spalding (Spalding Security Solutions, Sweden)
  • Marc Ablong PSM (Geostrategic Risk Partners)

Additional speakers to be announced shortly.
