Webinar Description
Key Takeaways
- Panel discussion addressing nation-state cyber threats from China, Russia and Iran targeting enterprise and critical infrastructure
- Designed for C-suite security leaders responsible for strategy, investment and board communication
- Explores the convergence of nation-state and criminal actor activity and its implications for threat intelligence programs

Nation-State Threats as Business Risk
This panel positions nation-state cyber operations as a direct business risk rather than a distant geopolitical concern. Security leaders from enterprise and critical infrastructure sectors will discuss how state-sponsored actors from China, Russia and Iran are actively targeting their networks, and how this reality shapes defensive strategy and resource allocation.
Key Discussion Areas
The panel addresses several operational and strategic challenges facing security leadership. Participants will examine how threat intelligence programs have evolved as the boundaries between nation-state operations and criminal activity continue to blur. The discussion covers pre-positioning tactics used by state-sponsored actors and whether organisations are actively hunting for these indicators within their environments.
Geopolitical instability and its influence on 2026 security investment priorities forms another focus area. The panel also explores effective models for public-private threat intelligence sharing, particularly given current political fragmentation, and how security leaders can prepare boards for the possibility of a nation-state-attributed attack.
Who Should Attend
This session is intended for C-suite security leaders, particularly those responsible for threat intelligence strategy, security investment decisions and communicating cyber risk to boards of directors. Professionals working in critical infrastructure sectors or organisations with exposure to geopolitically motivated threats will find the discussion directly relevant to their planning.
