Geopolitical tensions are no longer a backdrop to cybersecurity - they are actively reshaping the threat landscape across Europe's public and private sectors. In this panel discussion, security leaders from the energy, health and public administration sectors share candid, frontline perspectives on how state-sponsored actors are evolving their tactics, why attribution is becoming harder and what organizations must do internally to keep pace.

The session will explore:

• How Russian and Chinese threat actors are shifting from economically motivated attacks to long-term persistence strategies designed to position for future disruption of critical infrastructure;
• Why threat intelligence, executive awareness and incident response maturity are the most urgent internal priorities for CISOs navigating an era where the line between ally and adversary is increasingly blurred;
• What cross-sector and cross-border collaboration between governments, regulators and the private sector must look like to move from fragmented reporting obligations to meaningful, actionable intelligence sharing.
