Smarttech247 to host Cybersecurity Conference, Zero Day Con 2025

Smarttech247 (AIM: S247), a multi-award-winning provider of AI-enhanced cybersecurity services providing automated managed detection and response for a portfolio of international clients, is pleased to announce that it is hosting the annual cybersecurity conference, Zero Day Con.

Zero Day Con will be held on 11 March 2025 at the Convention Centre Dublin. The theme for this year is 'converge', and the event will bring together industry leaders, cybersecurity professionals, and technology enthusiasts to explore the intersection of Artificial Intelligence (AI), resilience, and data security in today's rapidly evolving cybersecurity landscape.

The event will include a lineup of prominent speakers from leading cybersecurity and technology companies, offering attendees the opportunity to engage with experts and gain valuable insights into the latest trends shaping the cybersecurity industry. Confirmed speakers include senior professionals from the FBI, the Director of the National Cyber Security Centre, the CISO for the Americas at Louis Vuitton, the CISO of the Health Service Executive, as well as Smarttech247 CEO Raluca Saceanu and Executive Chairman Ronan Murphy.

Raluca Saceanu, CEO of Smarttech247, commented:

"In recent years, the cybersecurity landscape has changed significantly, driven in large parts by advancements in AI. While AI has improved defensive cybersecurity measures, it has also lowered the barrier to entry for cybercriminals, making sophisticated attacks more accessible to a broader range of threat actors.

"As the threat landscape grows more complex, prioritising cybersecurity is no longer optional for businesses-it is essential. At Zero Day Con 2025, we will bring together some of the brightest minds in the industry to discuss the intersection of AI, data security, and cyber resilience, and how these considerations will shape the future of cybersecurity."
