Shaping what's next in cybersecurity

Not just another cybersecurity event. At Nomios Next, security and IT leaders from the Benelux region come together to examine what is really changing — and what that means for the decisions you make today. Because the playing field is shifting rapidly: regulatory pressure is mounting, IT environments are moving towards models such as Zero Trust and SASE, and topics such as digital sovereignty, identity management, AI and quantum-secure cryptography are becoming increasingly decisive in practice.

In plenary sessions and breakout sessions, we combine strategic perspective with practical tools that you can apply immediately in your own environment. No abstract theories, but insights that will help you move forward.

On stage, two exceptional speakers will share their perspectives. Neurobiologist Brankele Frank will demonstrate how our brains make decisions under pressure and what that means for the way teams respond during an incident. Dick Berlijn, former Commander of the Armed Forces, will speak about leadership, threats and resilience at the highest level. Chair Joost Hoebink will guide you through the programme.

You’ll also meet colleagues from the Benelux to exchange experiences, challenges and approaches in a setting designed for in-depth discussions. Together with our partners — including Palo Alto Networks, HPE, Fortinet and Thales — we’re creating a programme with real depth for this day.
