FStech successfully hosted CyberSecurity Live 2026 on Wednesday, bringing together cybersecurity professionals and financial services leaders at Hilton London Tower Bridge to discuss evolving threats and defenses.
The event featured keynote addresses and panel discussions on critical topics such as AI security, digital banking protection, Zero Trust implementation, and quantum readiness. Speakers highlighted the growing complexity of threats facing financial institutions and the need for more integrated security approaches.
Keynote Insights
Claire MacArthur from the FCA opened the conference by emphasizing operational and cyber resilience as financial institutions become increasingly interconnected. Later, Julio Guijarro from Red Hat discussed improving enterprise security through open-source collaboration and initiatives like Lightwell.
Cybersecurity can no longer be considered in isolation from the wider operation of a financial institution.
Future Priorities
Ben Peet from Standard Chartered concluded the event by outlining 10 priorities for CISO teams in 2027. Throughout the day, speakers stressed the importance of collaboration across technology, risk, operations, and senior leadership to build resilience as threats continue to evolve.
FStech's next major conference, RegTech Live, is scheduled for February 25, 2027, at the same venue, examining the latest developments in regulatory technology.
