Farvest has announced details of the Information Security Days 2017, to be held on 28 & 29 March 2017 (from 08:30 both days) at rthe Alvisse Parc Hotel in Luxembourg-Dommeldange.

The event is dedicated to cybersecurity and is composed of conferences, a dinner with an Award ceremony, as well as an exhibition area.

Technology has always affected the physical world in the form of engineered systems to generate electricity and water, manufacturing facilities to build automobiles and run environmental systems in buildings, for example. However, changes in that technology now drive IT governance and strategy toward convergence in an accelerated fashion, blurring the line between the « digital » and the « physical ».

IoT accelerates this convergence in the financial, insurance, retail and consumer fields as well. Gartner says that by year-end 2017, more than 20% of enterprises will have digital risk services devoted to protecting business initiatives using devices and services in the Internet of Things.

Although cybersecurity has always been a concern for all technology, information and IT security have dominated the development and implementation of technology and solutions. Now the « digital explosion » requires that organizations consider cybersecurity as a superset of IT security to incorporate these new requirements.

IS Days is a two-day event gathering cybersecurity professionals for an exclusive programme of seminars and presentations given by recognised experts, live demos in the exhibition area and many networking opportunities.

For the first time this year’s edition will include a prestigious dinner attracting 200 IT decision-makers to reward best practices.
