Cyber Clinics on the Rooftop
Unwrapping the breaches that defined 2025
Before you hang up your headset for the festive season, join your peers for an exclusive end of year cyber round up. At this Cyro Chapter, we’ll unwrap 2025’s biggest hacks, share lessons learned across industries, and look ahead to 2026’s emerging risks with a festive twist.
From retail to manufacturing, luxury to logistics, 2025 has been the year no brand could hide. We’ve seen household names like M&S, JLR, Harrods and more succumb to incidents - proof that no one is safe from the ripple effects of modern cyber attacks.
The question now is: what can we learn before history repeats itself in 2026?
In this interactive session, our expert panel of senior security leaders will dissect the top global cyber events of 2025, exploring what happened, why it mattered, and what we as cyber professionals can learn from it and do differently in the year ahead.
