In this keynote, Sanjay will explore how modern data governance must evolve as organizations adopt GenAI, automation, and advanced analytics. Drawing from experience across regulated, high-risk environments, he will connect data quality, lineage, privacy, model risk, security, and executive oversight to real organizational outcomes: faster AI adoption, stronger audit readiness, and better decision-making.Cybersecurity Tabletop Exercise: GenAI, Exposure, and Incident ResponseLed by Graeme Abrahams, Senior I&IT Specialist, Cyber Security Division, Ministry of Public and Business Service Delivery and Procurement, and Principal, Magenta CybersecurityIn this hands-on cybersecurity tabletop exercise, Graeme Abrahams will guide attendees through a practical cyber incident scenario designed to strengthen awareness, decision-making, and cross-functional response during a cyber crisis.Graeme is a Senior I&IT Specialist in the Education & Centre of Excellence Unit, Cyber Security Division at Ontario’s Ministry of Public and Business Service Delivery and Procurement, and is also Principal at Magenta Cybersecurity. He has developed several “Tabletop-in-a-Box” cybersecurity scenarios for the Ontario public sector and brings deep experience supporting cybersecurity programs, executive stakeholders, and operational readiness.The exercise will challenge participants to think beyond technical response and consider the leadership, governance, communications, escalation, and accountability decisions required during a live cyber incident. Attendees will gain practical experience responding to a realistic cyber event while identifying opportunities to improve their organization’s cyber readiness, resilience, and incident response posture.PMO, Governance, and AI-Enabled Decision-Making in Complex OrganizationsFeaturing Abbas Alimorad, MA, MPEd, PMP — President, PMI SWOC; Founder & CEO, Stratenix OÜ and JHMJ Consulting Ltd.; Senior Project Manager, Global Affairs CanadaAs organizations navigate cybersecurity risk, AI adoption, digital transformation, and operational complexity, the PMO is becoming far more than a reporting function. It is increasingly the connective tissue between strategy, governance, execution, risk, and leadership accountability.In this closing session, Abbas Alimorad will explore how modern PMOs and governance leaders can help organizations move from fragmented project oversight to stronger, evidence-based decision-making. Drawing from more than 20 years of leadership experience across government, healthcare, higher education, and consulting, Abbas will discuss how governance structures, portfolio visibility, escalation pathways, and data-driven insights can help leaders make better decisions in complex environments.As President of PMI SWOC, Senior Project Manager at Global Affairs Canada, and Founder & CEO of Stratenix, Abbas brings a unique perspective on the future of project governance, including how AI and analytics can modernize PMO operations, strengthen accountability, and turn project data into executive decisions.Attendees will leave with a clearer view of how PMOs can evolve into strategic governance engines that improve resilience, sharpen leadership alignment, and support organizations through uncertainty, transformation, and risk.Key TakeawaysDefine 'AI-ready data governance': the minimum controls for quality, access, lineage, and accountability.Map AI risks to governance controls (privacy, bias, IP/leakage, drift, and regulatory expectations) and who owns what.Apply a practical operating model: policies, data stewardship, catalog/lineage, and continuous monitoring.Identify quick wins for the next 90 days: classification, least-privilege access, retention, and 'human-in-the-loop' guardrails.Recognize the toolchain that enables governance at scale (Purview/catalogs, DLP, identity, logging) and how to measure success.Raise awareness about the potential impact of a cyber incident.Demonstrate the importance of a collaborative, cross-functional response to effectively manage a cyber crisis.Provide experience in decision-making during a cyber-attack.Identify gaps and areas for improvement in your organization's cyber security posture. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/london/executive-workshop-cybersecurity-in-the-age-of-ai-governance-and-risk/100001990829269938 - **Event Categories**: business, workshops, art, fine-arts, contests, drawing-painting - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 4 hours - Location: Delta Hotels London Armouries - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 61.66, max: 136.88, currency: CAD ## Event venue details - **city**: London - **state**: ON - **country**: Canada - **location**: Delta Hotels London Armouries - **lat**: 42.9851036 - **long**: -81.24289329999999 - **full address**: Delta Hotels London Armouries, 325 Dundas Street, London, Canada ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Executive Workshop: Cybersecurity in the Age of AI - Governance and Risk - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/f1d56d93de74fda695768413a34313c526241a7983ddbb828ed8cee4d4c7c72a-rimg-w1200-h600-dcffffff-gmir.jpg?v=1781072734 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Executive Workshop: Cybersecurity in the Age of AI - Governance and Risk being held? - **A:** Executive Workshop: Cybersecurity in the Age of AI - Governance and Risk takes place on Wed, 22 Jul, 2026 at 05:00 pm to Wed, 22 Jul, 2026 at 09:00 pm at Delta Hotels London Armouries, 325 Dundas Street, London, Canada. - **Q**: Who is organizing Executive Workshop: Cybersecurity in the Age of AI - Governance and Risk? - **A:** Executive Workshop: Cybersecurity in the Age of AI - Governance and Risk is organized by PMI South Western Ontario Chapter. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
