Secur-Serv + ProofPoint –  Email Security – Current Trends & Threats for Financial Institutions: Cybersecurity leaders in banking are facing an inflection point. Threat actors are moving faster, attacks are becoming more intelligent, and agentic AI is introducing entirely new risks to people, systems, and business operations. Email remains the #1 entry point for compromise, but today’s threats extend far beyond traditional phishing. In this 60-minute breakout session, we’ll explore the latest cybersecurity threats impacting financial institutions, the rise of AI-enabled attack automation, and the critical role next-generation email protection plays in a modern defense strategy. We’ll also show how Secur-Serv’s technology services help banking leaders transform security insights into measurable action—improving visibility, accelerating response, and strengthening resilience.

Navanta  – The Evolution of Core Banking and Optimizing Your Data: This session will provide insights into the development of future Core banking systems, providing guidance on what to expect as technology continues to progress. This will include a discussion of trends and innovations that are influencing the direction of consumer banking. Additionally, we will look at how to manage the Core data and use it to enhance interactions with customers to foster lasting relationships.

Secur-Serv  – Security Team Roundtable

DarkTrace – Defending Against Offensive AI with Autonomous Cybersecurity: This presentation explores how offensive AI is accelerating modern cyber threats—fueling ransomware, credential abuse, zero-day exploitation, and AI-powered malware—while fundamentally reshaping the threat landscape. It then explains why traditional, rules-based security is no longer sufficient and outlines how defensive, multi-layered, and agentic AI can detect and contain novel attacks at machine speed with transparency and control. The core takeaway is that AI must be applied pragmatically and responsibly: diversified security approaches, autonomous response, and human expertise together are essential to defending against fast-moving, AI-driven threats.

Curated Cyber –  The Best Intern You Never Hired: A Practical AI Playbook for Community Bankers: AI is moving fast, and if you’re trying to figure out what to do about it, you’re in good company. This session cuts through the noise and gives attendees a practical look at what AI actually looks like inside a bank today. From meeting summaries, drafting emails, SAR narratives to board reports to vendor management, we’ll walk through what your peers are already doing with tools like ChatGPT, Copilot, and Claude, and more importantly, how to build the governance structure that keeps it all from going sideways.

You’ll leave with a clear picture of how to stand up an AI committee, run through your first AI risk assessment, ask the right questions of your vendors, and build a culture where your team uses AI confidently and responsibly. Delivered with personality and built for the community banking world, this session is part pep talk, part playbook, and entirely practical.

Finovifi – Combatting Fraud in a Digital Age: Despite advances in digital payments, check and wire fraud continue to be persistent and costly threats to individuals and organizations. This session will examine how fraudsters exploit traditional payment systems through counterfeit checks, dark web, forged endorsements, business email compromise, and fraudulent wire transfers.

Lunch and networking

1:00 PM – 1:40 PM - Sessions

Huntress – Huntress Agentic MDR Platform: This session will showcase the Huntress Agentic Platform, a unified security layer that brings together identity, endpoint, and managed detection and response to stop threats before they become incidents. We will explore how Huntress continuously hardens identity posture, surfaces risky accounts and misconfigurations, and ties that context directly to endpoint telemetry for faster, more accurate detections. Attendees will see how human-led MDR and automated agentic investigation work in tandem to cut through alert noise, deliver high-fidelity findings, and drive rapid, actionable response across their environment. You’ll leave with a clear understanding of how consolidating identity, endpoint, and MDR within the Huntress Agentic Platform strengthens security outcomes without adding operational complexity.

1:50 PM – 2:30 PM - Sessions

ConnectWise – Modern Threat Protection: Security tools without context create gaps, slow response times, and add operational complexity. Introducing Modern Threat Protection, a connected, agentic approach designed to help IT Solution Providers detect threats faster, respond with confidence, and scale protection across every client. Unified visibility to AI-driven triage, this is what it looks like to move from alerts to action.
