Cybersecurity Resilience: Safeguarding business and government from cyber threats and disruptions

IIM Nagpur will organize the Cybersecurity Resilience Conference on 25 February 2025. Industry practitioners, researchers and academicians in the Cybersecurity domain from worldwide locations will participate in the conference, which will be an excellent opportunity for them to further hone their research skills and discuss variegated factors associated with Cybersecurity through keynote lectures.

Technology has become fundamental to the manufacturing of products and the delivery of services by both corporations and governments. The role of Cybersecurity becomes quintessential in the current context when there is a fast-growing Industry 5.0, Gen AI Cloud Computing, and fast adoption of Cyber-physical systems almost everywhere. It is India’s decade, and the nation is on the cusp of witnessing accelerated growth in different sectors with a more significant share of Cybersecurity and related technologies. Fast technology adoption will equally provide hackers ample room to penetrate corporate networks globally in one way or the other. Organizations need to plan for and respond to exposures and address vulnerabilities from the perspective of building Cybersecurity Resilience.
