LIVING WITH COVID-19
REIMAGINING DIGITAL SECURITY RISKS AND OPPORTUNITIES

Disruptions have taken center stage as key factors in just about every facet of the human condition. In technology, healthcare, communications, travel, even social norms and modes of behaviour, the recent past has seen unprecedented pace and impact of change in our lives. Growing and adapting to meet the challenges that emerge, as well as identifying the opportunities that can also develop, is key to the establishment of resilient and successful communities of the future.

At GovWare, our focus remains firmly fixed on cybersecurity and technology developments amidst this backdrop. Their critical role in helping power the process of response, adaptation, and thriving in the new environments that will emerge, deserve focus and discussion. Presenting the theme of “Living with COVID-19 - Reimagining Digital Security Risks and Opportunities”, this year, the technology and innovation call to arms will once again bring out the best of breed in solutions to meet practical areas of application.

The quality and standards of GovWare on commercially neutral content will remain a hallmark, and safeguarded by a Programme Committee composed of acknowledged experts from the user and industry practitioner domains.

GovWare 2021 invites cyber professionals, policymakers, regulators, and stakeholders from both public and private domains to discuss key challenges in establishing safe and secure cyberspace, within the context of an ecosystem defined by rapid evolution, and an organizational environment subject to myriad threats and challenges.
