Fortify Your Firm’s Defenses & Shield Against Critical Risks to Prevent Disruptions & Safeguard Your Assets

Welcome to the Inaugural Advancing Construction Cybersecurity Summit

Uphold Data Integrity Through Innovative Security Strategies & Cutting-Edge Technologies

An increased sophistication of cyber-attacks saw cyber insurance premiums rise ~200% in 2023 for the construction industry. This, coupled with the systemic issue of relatively low investment into data security measures, means it had never been more important for security professionals in the construction industry to come together and trade insights on the best security protocols and how to effectively implement them within their firm.

The inaugural Advancing Construction Cybersecurity Summit united CISOs, CIOs, cybersecurity, information security, legal and GRC experts across the AEC community to tackle shared challenges surrounding the enterprise-wide protection and security of valuable personnel, project and financial data.

Attendees unearthed lessons learned from ransomware attacks, discovered how others are ensuring CMMC compliance, developed robust security protocols for them and their partners across all project sites and many more security strategies which were available to them in just 3 days.

Attendees united with industry peers at this unique event, where everyone shared the common goal of safeguarding their firm and enabling their wider business to concentrate exclusively on construction project success.
