News | 24.04.2026

In an environment where attackers are increasingly leveraging artificial intelligence and the attack surface is constantly expanding, it is no longer enough for security teams to simply keep pace with changes. The time has come to shift the paradigm: moving from reactive response to preemptive defense that delivers true cyber resilience.

Rapid7 Global Cybersecurity Summit 2026 is a key event for those ready to predict, disrupt, and defeat cyber threats before they can cause impact.

About the Forum

The summit brings together global security leaders, preemptive defense experts, and CISOs to develop a strategy for cyber resilience. In 2026, for the first time, the event will feature two specialized tracks to best meet the needs of both executives and technical specialists.

Key Differences Between Summit Tracks

Track for Leaders (Security Leaders)

  • Focus: Strategic risk management and building long-term resilience.
  • Objectives: Aligning Exposure Management, MDR, and AI into a single operating model.

Track for Practitioners (Practitioners)

  • Focus: Technical tools and real-world defense scenarios.
  • Objectives: Practical application of AI in the SOC, threat detection, and process automation.
