Everyone Has a Cyber Confession

25 August, 2026

Something spooky is brewing this October.
We're hosting an invite-only leadership event for senior cyber, IT and HR leaders — but this isn't your average cyber gathering. No badge-scanning chaos. No sales pitches. No product demos.


Instead, expect honest leadership stories, myth-busting conversations, and the kind of immersive, memorable experiences that don't just disappear the moment you leave the room.


Because everyone has a cyber confession. The mistake nobody talks about. The habit that shouldn't have worked but did. The "monster in the closet" every security leader is quietly managing. This event is where we bring those stories into the open and figure out, together, how real security habits are actually formed.



What to expect


  • Honest, unfiltered leadership stories from people who've been in the room when it matters
  • Myth-busting conversations that cut through the noise
  • A confirmed speaker line-up spanning the Bank of England, law enforcement, and leading voices in human risk and security culture
  • A half-day of networking, followed by drinks

Who's in the room


  • CISOs and senior cyber leaders
  • Cyber and IT security teams
  • HR and Learning & Development leaders
  • Partners and MSP’s
  • A minimum of 100 senior leaders across the day

This is about credibility, proximity and trust - not another trade show. Register your interest below to be among the first to receive full event details as they're announced.
