Cybersecurity experts at Infosecurity Europe 2026 agree on one thing:

The era of "prevent every attack" is over.

AI is accelerating both innovation and cybercrime. Deepfakes, autonomous attacks, non-human identities, and increasingly complex supply chains are forcing organizations to rethink security from the ground up.

The focus is shifting from prevention to resilience, building the ability to withstand, adapt, and recover when disruption occurs.

Many cybersecurity incidents don't start with sophisticated attacks, they start with simple misconfigurations.

In this interview, Tim Oelkers, Microsoft 365 Solutions Architect at Inforcer, explains why traditional security approaches often overlook configuration drift and how organizations can strengthen their security posture by shifting their focus "left of boom."

From continuous validation and baseline enforcement to proactive monitoring, discover why preventing vulnerabilities before they become incidents is becoming a critical part of modern cybersecurity.

Digital onboarding is where growth meets risk, and most brands still treat it like a trade-off.
More friction = less fraud.
Less friction = more conversions.
But that binary thinking is outdated.
By 2026, 53% of the global population will rely on digital banking. That means your onboarding flow isn’t just a process, it’s your first impression, your trust layer, and your growth engine.
The winners? They won’t choose between security and experience. They’ll engineer both.
Ricardo Amper, CEO at Incode, breaks down how modern onboarding is evolving, and what it takes to balance fraud prevention with seamless conversion.

Compliance isn’t broken.
The audit-cycle mindset is.
As Cam Roberson of Beachead solutions outlines, continuous compliance comes down to 3 things:
Enforcement. Visibility. Response.
Miss one, and you’re always reacting too late.

Identity governance isn’t a workflow anymore.
It’s infrastructure.

When 98% of access decisions are automated, approvals stop scaling — systems do.

The real shift?
From managing requests → to designing decision engines.

If your team is still chasing tickets, you’re not governing — you’re reacting.
— Alex Bovee, Co-founder & CEO at ConductorOne

Shane Barney says the future of enterprise security is simple: trust nothing, verify everything.
As hybrid infrastructure, multi-cloud environments, and AI systems expand, every user, device, API, and service account becomes a potential entry point.
And attackers are already adapting.
According to the CrowdStrike 2025 Global Threat Report, 82% of detections were malware-free, signaling a shift toward attacks powered by stolen credentials, social engineering, and privilege misuse.
Why this makes zero-trust and identity-first security critical today, explore the full perspective in the article. 👇

The Security Operations Center is hitting a wall.
Attackers are moving faster, campaigns are getting smarter, and AI is lowering the barrier for launching sophisticated attacks. What once required deep technical expertise can now be generated in minutes.
That’s putting enormous pressure on security teams still relying on manual triage and fragmented tools.
In this piece, Ken Chen of ExtraHop explores why enterprises are moving toward Agentic SOCs, where AI agents work within security workflows to accelerate detection, analysis, and response.
Because when threats move at machine speed, security operations need to keep pace.
