Built for Resilience: Powering the AI-Ready Enterprise

Cyber resilience is no longer an IT objective—it is an enterprise growth strategy. In this opening, we frame the day around what boards and CEOs now expect from CIOs, CISOs, and CTOs: measurable recovery confidence, transparent economic impact, and the ability to keep digital business running under pressure. The session sets a common language for finance, risk, and technology leaders and outlines how this forum is designed for organizations at every stage of maturity.

AI has moved security from protecting systems to protecting decisions and data integrity. This keynote reframes cyber resilience as an executive growth mandate. It explores how leading organizations are moving beyond static backups to identity-aware, explainable recovery—capabilities that protect SaaS estates, AI pipelines, and customer trust at the same time. Drawing on recent advances in recovery intelligence and AI operations, we’ll examine how to contain blast radius, validate clean data, and establish Time-to-Trust as a board metric—from first deployment to advanced automation. so innovation can accelerate without gambling the enterprise.

Modern enterprises need one operational fabric across hybrid data, SaaS, and AI workloads. This session provides a forward-looking view of platform direction: unified recovery workflows, identity-aware resilience, and automation at scale. Rather than features, we focus on architectural decisions CXOs must make today—data placement, sovereignty, performance, and integration—so that tomorrow’s innovation doesn’t become next year’s technical debt.

We highlight the data protection and resilience-building efforts of forward-thinking CXOs in this interactive drill-down on the strategies and tactics innovative IT and security leaders are pursuing for their organizations.

How do you translate RTO/RPO into revenue protection and risk reduction? This interactive breakout introduces a financial model linking downtime to customer impact, regulatory exposure, and brand value. Attendees will learn how to present resilience investments in the language of EBITDA, not infrastructure.

Join us to learn:
- Reframe AI, security and cyber resilience as value drivers, rather than cost centers for compliance and protection
- Learn to quantify and communicate the financial and operational impact of resilience investments
- Explore a structured approach to connect initiatives to organizational priorities, risk appetite, and regulatory expectations

This session covers how to structure licensing and commercial models, navigate finance nuances (delayed invoicing, price guarantees, consumption options), and design a proof-of-value that resonates with leadership. We’ll compare hardware strategies, model loaded data-center costs, outline professional services paths, and review starter use cases such as M365 and ransomware recovery—so teams can move confidently from evaluation to production.

Once the foundation is in place, the question becomes: how do we operate at scale? Rubrik product experts will walk through API-driven automation, onboarding workflows, telemetry, patching discipline, and non-disruptive testing for audit. We’ll address advanced scenarios—large databases, big data platforms, hybrid estates—and strategies for using Rubrik as a cost-effective archive while optimizing restore performance across physical and virtual workloads.

Cloud-native applications are critical revenue and productivity drivers, but their distributed nature makes it harder to ensure their resilience. Attackers know this, and are increasing cloud attacks in response. Organizations struggle to understand what data is exposed, how long recovery would take, and how to demonstrate resilience to stakeholders like boards and regulators.

Join us to learn:
- How Rubrik Cloud Application Resilience introduces a unified platform to protect data and configurations associated with top-tier applications
- How automated orchestration helps reduce the impact of cyber incidents
- Key resilience capabilities including continuous cloud discovery, orchestrated application recovery, and centralized monitoring and reporting

Cloud data sprawl, acquisitions of major infrastructure providers, and a concerted effort by threat actors to target backups represent significant challenges for enterprise data protection programs today. Many IT and security leaders are responsible for managing and protecting hybrid and multi-cloud environments on top of on-premise data centers, stretching resources thin and introducing ample opportunity for security oversight.

Join us to learn: 
- How legacy recovery technologies threaten the availability and integrity of enterprise data
- Deficiencies in cloud-native recovery capabilities and how threat actors target them
- Critical capabilities of purpose-built solutions that help teams overcome enterprise data security challenges

M365 is the central nervous center for collaboration at many organizations, making it truly a Tier 0/1 app. As AI agents proliferate, the blast radius of a single identity compromise expands exponentially, with the possibility to lead to data exfiltration or ransomware.This session examines practical workflows for protecting identities, mailboxes, and collaboration data; rapid restoration during account takeover; and containment across Entra ID and M365.To become resilient, organizations must be confident in their ability to recover across their entire IT estate—and quickly.

Join us to learn:
- How the Rubrik Security Cloud unifies posture management and recovery for M365 environments
- How to move beyond bulk restores to rapid, targeted recovery to minimize business downtime
- How accurate data classification helps limit sensitive data exposure

The evolving cyber resilience regulatory landscape across Europe and the Americas is raising expectations for senior leadership across sectors and regions: not only to own cyber resilience strategically, but to measure and actively steer resilience transformation over time.

This interactive executive session is designed to conduct a Cyber Resilience Readiness Assessment for attendees. During the breakout, participants will:

• Assess how prepared their organization is - strategically and from a transformation perspective - to anticipate, withstand, adapt to, and recover from cyber disruption
• Assess their current posture, enabling a candid, leadership-level view of strengths, gaps, and priorities
• Gain a clear initial snapshot of their cyber resilience readiness, grounded in recognized best practice
• Receive a concise summary, following the session, capturing their assessed posture and key observations, providing an initial baseline to inform next cyber resilience steps

Beyond the hype lies a critical question: How do we empower autonomous agents without losing oversight? Join fellow executives to bridge the gap between AI potential and enterprise security. In this interactive session, we will simulate real-world capital allocation to identify the "must-haves" for agent safety, compare governance blueprints, and define the high-impact security investments required for the next 12 months.

Agentic systems introduce new failure modes—data drift, hallucinations, and unintended automation. With that, AI multiplies both opportunity and risk. This interactive working session demonstrates how training data integrity, lineage, and rapid rollback become core controls for digital trust, and what new responsibilities this creates for CIOs, CISOs, and CTOs.

Leading  leaders discuss how to secure AI agents, protect training sets, and manage agent sprawl. Topics include governance models, separation of duties, incident response for AI, and aligning innovation with regulatory expectations. Peer executives share how they are governing AI while maintaining continuity—early use cases, what is working, what their blindspots are, and how responsibilities are divided across Security, Infrastructure, and Data teams.
