The Future of Retail: Balancing Security, Personalisation, and Performance
11:00-12:30 CET | Virtual
Event Overview
Retailers are under mounting pressure to deliver frictionless digital experiences while defending against a rapidly evolving threat landscape. AI-driven personalisation, cloudpowered operations, and API-driven commerce are transforming how businesses engage
with customers—but they are also expanding the attack surface.
Cybercriminals are targeting APIs, third-party integrations, and supply chain vulnerabilities, forcing retailers to rethink security strategies that don’t slow down innovation or disrupt the customer
experience. For security and technology leaders, the challenge isn’t just preventing breaches—it’s about preserving trust and business continuity. How can retailers enforce strong authentication
without deterring customers? What fraud mitigation strategies can reduce risk while maintaining seamless transactions? And how can organisations future-proof their digital ecosystems against AI-powered threats?
Led by Christian Reilly, Field CTO, EMEA at Cloudflare, this executive roundtable will explore :
DISCUSSION POINTS
Secure cloud infrastructure to protect digital assets and enable scalability.
Mitigate fraud risks without adding friction to customer interactions.
Strengthen API and supply chain security to prevent breaches and disruptions.
Leverage AI securely, ensuring that innovations enhance rather than undermine
security and trust.
