The attack surface is expanding as the IT environment undergoes significant changes. Cloud adoption is increasing, remote and hybrid users now dominate, and IoT devices are becoming more prevalent on corporate networks.

Many organizations rely on a complex array of products that were not designed to support today's highly distributed environment. Additionally, as breach vectors multiply, enterprise application stacks become more complex, and new threats emerge daily, the time and resources required for businesses to remain secure and operational have grown exponentially.

In this session, Evi Kechagia, Cybersecurity Technical Solutions Architect at Cisco Greece, Cyprus and Malta will examine how teams can proactively identify threats before they become incidents within their organizations. This can be achieved by harnessing the power of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning models through pattern recognition. We will also explore how teams can establish secure and resilient networks and streamline operations by utilizing tools and systems that simplify the tasks of IT and Security teams. These techniques are particularly crucial in situations where data analysis is complex and resource-intensive.

In this session Kyriakos Georgiou, Chief Risk and Data Science Officer at Finloup, will delve into the topic of forecasting customer churn in a non-contractual setting. Taking inspiration from the latest developments in machine learning that incorporate multiple time intervals, we present an inventive approach for training and evaluating known as the sliding multi-time slicing (SMTS) technique.
