KYBERturvallisuus X AI
2026-04-16 00:00 - 23:59
Digiturvallisuusmessut kokoavat yhteen digiturvallisuuden asiantuntijat, organisaatiot ja yrityspäättäjät ajankohtaisten aiheiden, ratkaisujen ja tulevaisuuden näkymien äärelle. Tapahtuman keskiössä ovat kyberturvallisuus, tietosuoja ja riskienhallinta nopeasti muuttuvassa digitaalisessa toimintaympäristössä.

Messuilla on vahvasti mukana myös tekoäly (AI) ja sen vaikutus digiturvallisuuteen. Miten tekoälyä hyödynnetään turvallisuuden vahvistamisessa, uhkien ennakoinnissa ja poikkeamien tunnistamisessa – sekä millaisia uusia riskejä ja eettisiä kysymyksiä AI tuo mukanaan.

Digiturvallisuusmessut tarjoavat ajankohtaisia puheenvuoroja turvallisuusasioiden tunnetuilta nimiltä , käytännön esimerkkejä ja verkostoitumismahdollisuuksia kaikille, jotka haluavat ymmärtää, miten digiturvallisuus ja tekoäly muovaavat organisaatioiden ja yhteiskunnan tulevaisuutta.

Digiturvallisuusmessut esittelevät myös konkreettisia ratkaisuja ja palveluita yrityksille ja organisaatioille tietoturvan parantamiseen. Tapahtuma yhdistää tehokkaasti digiturvallisuuden asiantuntijat, tietoturvasta kiinnostuneet yritykset sekä kyberalan opiskelijat ja oppilaitokset.
