Competitors will employ their skills in cryptography, network security, reverse engineering, and web security to identify hidden ‘flags’ within the challenges.

On 25 November, the CEO Forum will address the critical theme, “Is the Board Prepared to Respond to a Cyberattack?”. Focusing on why cybersecurity should be a boardroom priority, the forum will provide executives with the insights necessary to drive strategic decisions for digital resilience.

The Summit will culminate in a full-day session on 26 November, featuring discussions by both local and international speakers on pivotal topics, including: ‘The Rise of Cyber Scams: How to Detect and Prevent Fraud’, ‘Data Breaches and Leakages: Protecting Sensitive Information’, ‘Cybersecurity in the Age of AI: New Frontiers, New Risks’, and ‘Global Threats and Local Impact: Securing Critical Infrastructure.’

This year’s Summit follows the successful conclusion of the 4th Annual Youth Summit on Cyber Security held on 29 October at BMICH, where over 800 students from the Colombo region gathered for inspiring discussions on cybersecurity’s future. Similar youth-focused sessions are being planned in Jaffna, Kandy, and Galle, further extending cybersecurity education to young minds across the island.
