HIGHLIGHTS FROM PAST SUMMITS

In 2023, collective cyber resilience was the core theme and principle for the Compass Summit.

Resilience is the ability to anticipate, withstand, respond and adapt. It requires organisations to plan, share experiences, define standards and identify key priorities - and learn from their failures.
