Abstract
Cybersecurity stands at a historic inflection point, where converged forces are reshaping how we think about digital defense. In this discussion, Kyndryl's Global Security & Resiliency Leader Kris Lovejoy will share five key predictions for how AI-driven threats, workforce disruption, geopolitical fragmentation, quantum computing, and infrastructure vulnerabilities will redefine how we secure our digital future. These forces are not just trends, but urgent signals of what's to come. Kris will also provide a strategic framework for navigating this converged threat landscape, with insights into the emerging roles, governance models and resilience strategies that will shape cybersecurity in the years ahead.About the Speaker
