Cyber Resilience in an Era of Constant Disruption: A CISO Roundtable
As part of Infosecurity Europe 2026, Plexal is hosting a roundtable event for and CISOs (or equivalent role) chaired by Jo Miller, National Security Officer, Microsoft UK.
Jo is a senior security and technology leader with over 25 years’ experience spanning national security, defence and the public sector. Now leading on national security engagement at Microsoft UK, she brings deep expertise in cyber risk, geopolitics and technology governance, having previously held senior roles including Director for Serious and Organised Crime and Chief Data Officer at the Home Office. Jo is a Chartered Fellow of the Institute of Directors and a Policy Fellow at the University of Cambridge, with a strong track record of board‑level leadership and strategic risk management.
We'll discuss: Our most critical and vulnerable national infrastructure – think hospitals, data centres, food systems, energy providers and banks – are under pressure. On top of this, the cyber leaders protecting them are also managing the risk AI creates without being a blocker to the opportunities. Our roundtable brings CISOs and cyber leaders together to explore how we can enable secure AI adoption in complex environments, while being resilient to AI-powered threats.
The event is part of a series where we’re bringing cyber leaders together to share insights with each other while also feeding into the startup ecosystem so they can create the solutions needed most.

What we’ll explore
How disruption patterns are changing across IT, OT and hybrid environments
Where AI is creating new resilience considerations—from adversary use to internal adoption
How to build organisational confidence in safe and responsible AI deployment
How interdependencies and supplier ecosystems affect resilience
How resilience programmes should evolve when disruption becomes faster and more unpredictable
What CISO leadership looks like when risks escalate but authority and resourcing don’t
