From Agentic AI to Geopolitics: Zscaler’s Agenda for the Gartner Risk & Security Management SummitLater this month, I’ll be delivering a keynote at the Gartner Risk & Security Management Summit EMEA, where Zscaler will be a Premier Plus Sponsor. Hosted in London between 22-24 September, the annual summit convenes the region’s top security minds to tackle the latest challenges in the evolving digital landscape – where a complex mix of cyber threats, AI, regulatory shifts, and sovereignty demands are all converging to put pressure on business operations.As a global leader in Zero Trust transformation, Zscaler has a wealth of insights on how organizations can adapt to a rapidly changing risk environment, while driving innovation and safeguarding operational resilience. And we’ll be delivering these insights in a variety of different forums across the three days of the Summit. On September 22nd, I’ll be taking to the mainstage for “AI-liens in the Workforce: A New Trust Model with the Introduction of Advanced NHI.” This session will explore how agentic AI is reshaping enterprise ecosystems – driving accelerated automation and enhancing decision-making, but also creating an urgent need for new trust frameworks and more comprehensive risk management strategies. Attendees will leave with actionable insights on how to evolve their trust models to navigate autonomous AI environments securely and adaptively.The following day in our theatre keynote, “Driving Business Leadership with AI, Cellular, and Zero Trust,” Zscaler’s innovations team will reveal how these three technologies are revolutionizing both enterprise security and operational agility. The audience will learn how cutting-edge AI-driven frameworks, secure cellular connectivity, and transformative Zero Trust architectures are enabling businesses to turn risk into strategic advantage. Armed with this knowledge, they will also discover practical strategies to protect distributed environments, future-proof their security architecture, and embrace innovation on the edge in a digital-first world.In addition to the two keynotes, Casper Klynge, our VP of Government Affairs EMEA, will host an exclusive roundtable on day one titled “Navigating the Geopolitics of Tech: Should the Private Sector Be the Custodians of the Transatlantic Relationship?” This invitation-only session will explore the evolving interplay between tech dependency and cybersecurity, set against the backdrop of Europe’s digital sovereignty debate. Focused on the private sector’s role in particular, the roundtable aims to spark meaningful dialogue on the intersections between geopolitics, technology, and private-sector leadership.The Gartner Risk & Security Management Summit offers those of us in the industry an invaluable forum to engage with forward-thinking professionals and security innovators. Whether you are a CIO, CISO, governmental leader, or strategic decision-maker, I believe Zscaler has a compelling perspective to share on how to approach the most pressing challenges facing enterprises today, from managing risk in AI-driven ecosystems to navigating geopolitical complexities. We look forward to exploring groundbreaking ideas, fostering collaboration, and contributing to meaningful discussion.Join us at the Zscaler booth, attend our keynotes, and connect with our executive team at the cocktail reception on Monday, September 22nd.
