Boards are feeling the pressure of executive accountability. Cybersecurity specialists are drowning in continuous extended exposures while adversaries automate. And the NIS 2 Directive raises the regulatory bar for governance, risk management, and incident reporting across Europe and beyond. The next 12–18 months will reward organizations that align leadership accountability with smarter, AI‑augmented delivery.
On March 10 at 17:00 CET, Stefanini and the Cloud Security Alliance (Romania) will host a 60‑minute, English‑language webinar on Zoom: “Cybersecurity 2026: NIS 2 Accountability & AI‑Driven SOC Transformation”.
If you’re responsible for security strategy, compliance, or day‑to‑day SecOps performance or you’re a cybersecurity professional looking to grow your impact, this session is designed for you.
What you’ll learn
- NIS 2, decoded: What executive accountability really means, how risk management and incident notification obligations affect operating models, and how to prepare evidence for regulators and boards.
- Align leadership and operations: Practical ways to connect governance and reporting to technical controls, playbooks, and metrics your SOC can execute, and your executives can trust.
- AI-driven SOC transformation: How automation, behavioral analytics, and modern forensics cut noise, elevate detection quality, and speed response, without removing human judgement from the loop.
- Human-AI collaboration: Rethink roles, skills, and workflows, so analysts focus on high-value investigations while AI handles repetitive tasks.
