This event has now passed.
An exceptional couple of days at the Sheraton Grand Hotel & Spa in Edinburgh for the 2nd CISO 360 UK conference. Now that the event has concluded, we want to extend a massive thank you to all the chief information security officers, directors, and senior security practitioners who stopped by our stand to connect with the team.
A major highlight of the event was the outstanding engagement at the interactive sessions, particularly when our Principal Consultant, Cian Heasley, took to the stage for his panel discussion, "Know Your Adversary, Reduce Uncertainty: From Threat Intelligence to Adversary-Led Security".
The peer-to-peer insights and boots-on-the-ground experiences shared throughout this event perfectly reflected our core philosophy that collaborative human expertise is what ultimately drives systemic resilience. If you missed out on catching up with us in Edinburgh this time, we have a comprehensive calendar of exclusive roundtables, interactive summits, and invite-only events planned throughout 2026. Be sure to keep an eye on our main events page so you can secure your place at the next table.

Our Core Focus: Safeguarding Organisations in 2026
Turning Threat Data into Actionable Defence
The practitioner-led, confidential nature of this summit aligns perfectly with our core value that exceptional security always starts with exceptional individuals. As expert problem solvers, we know that the strongest, most resilient partnerships are built on a foundation of absolute integrity and transparency.
Instead of relying on rigid, hands-off automation that isolates your internal teams, modern enterprise defence demands clear operational visibility and rapid human collaboration. During the closed-door sessions at CISO 360 UK, we will be exploring how organisations can successfully navigate today's volatile threat landscape by anchoring their strategy in continuous validation and active human expertise.
