Technological evolution is increasingly disruptive. Predicting such quantum leaps in the curve of technological development requires greater vision, foresight and adaptability. In this final session we shall consider the future of cybersecurity and the capacity of citizens, companies and governments to anticipate the new realities created by artificial intelligence, 5G and other enabling technologies.

Cyberspace is an ever more important aspect of the exponential growth of digitalisation. The irruption of enabling technologies, 5G and the new reality imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic are just some elements that are changing the game board. Are we ready for the opportunities and threats that these scenarios are creating?

Speakers:

• Megan Stifel, GCA's Executive Director for the Americas regions.
• Susie Hargreaves, Director of the UK Safer Internet Centre. 
• Jean-Francois Junger. Deputy Head of Unit, Public Services. DG Communications Networks, Content and Technology, European Commission

Moderator: María Riesco, CNP.

Raising awareness

More than 95% of the security vulnerabilities in cyberspace are still linked to the human factor. In this fifth session we shall consider awareness-raising strategies and how to generate a cybersecurity culture to mitigate such risks. Are we on the right path to make this a reality? What strategies can guarantee success?

Speakers:

• Adrian Acosta, Digital Crime Officer, INTERPOL.
• Aleisha Arnusch, Cybercrime Coordinator, Global Affairs Canada.
• Elvira Tejada, Public Prosecutor against Cybercrime (Spain).

Moderator: Felix Barrio, Director, Cybersecurity Hub, TEC Monterrey

Law Enforcement

In this session, we shall consider the regulatory architecture and the application of laws in cyberspace. What new lines should we explore? What is the current role of international cooperation and what should the desired scenario be? What needs will the post-COVID-19 reality generate?.

Speakers:

• Heli Tiirmaa-Klaar, Ambassador-at-Large for Cyber Security at the Estonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
• María de Miguel de Santos, Department of National Security of Spain. 
• Ambassador Mireya Muñoz, Deputy Multilateral Affairs of Ecuador

Moderator: Isaac Morales, General Coordinator of Multidimensional Security in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Mexico. 

Policy Makers

In this third session we shall reflect on global strategies and policies that are being developed to meet the new technological disruption and its impact on digital security. What role does trans-national cooperation play?, What are the regional and global challenges? What are the key levers to successfully develop a cybersecurity strategy in this disruptive context?.

Speakers:

• Gabriela Ratti, Director-General for Cybersecurity and Information Protection, Ministry of Information Technology and Communications, Paraguay.
• Katherina Canales Madrid, CSIRT Operational Director in the Government of Chile.

Moderator: Jorge Chinea, Head of Cybersecurity in INCIBE-CERT Reactive Services (España).

Cyber Incident Response Centres

We shall analyse the challenges facing the Cyber Incident Response Centres from the perspective of international cooperation and the risks associated with increasingly intense digitalisation, and the new scenario that this posits. The perspective is very interesting for analysing the current situation of information security and the threats all countries are facing.
