- **Event Description**: Practical roadmap for IT teams on tactics, trends, and defence strategies.About this EventSpeakerJacob OniSynopsisIn 2026, the cybersecurity ecosystem has moved beyond traditional malware to focus on industrialised, automated threats that exploit the speed of modern IT infrastructure. For companies, this means defending against hyper-realistic social engineering and supply chain vulnerabilities that easily bypass legacy multi-factor authentication and standard firewalls. The focus has shifted toward identity-first security and rapid recovery infrastructure.This session provides a practical roadmap for IT teams to transition from manual recovery to automated, proactive defence strategies that assume a "breach-ready" posture. Attendees will gain actionable insights on these new attacks from the front lines, and some "old but gold" strategies still help with prevention, detection and remediation.About the speakerJacob Oni is a cybersecurity professional with over five years of experience in incident response, malware analysis, vulnerability management, security engineering, and offensive security across government and private sectors.He currently works as a Cybersecurity Analyst at CrowdStrike, having previously served as a Technical Information Security Officer within a UK council and as a Security Engineering Consultant at CyberSOC Africa, helping organisations strengthen their security posture against evolving cyber threats.Our events are for adults aged 16 years and over.This meeting is conducted in accordance with the BCS Code of Conduct for Meetings.BCS is a membership organisation.
