The right people.In the same room.Talking properly.

Signal Sessions are built around the people in the room.

Senior practitioners, different perspectives, and enough space for the conversations that rarely happen at traditional cyber events.

Panel

Greg Collins, CISSP

Panellist

Cyber security architect and transformation leader

Signal VoxCo-host

Greg is a cyber security architect and transformation leader with extensive experience building secure banking and financial services environments, including greenfield digital banks, cloud transformation and security functions built from the ground up.

As co-host of Signal Vox, Greg brings the same practitioner perspective to Sessions: experience, strong opinions and very little interest in security theatre.

Further panel voices will be announced shortly.

Special guests

Two additional perspectives join the room: the human side of security, and the practical development of the people doing the job.

Danusia Rolewicz

Special guest

Human risk and security culture

Signal CyberPsychThe human side of cyber

Danusia is an information security and human risk specialist whose work combines security culture, behavioural psychology, communication, GRC and security awareness across global and complex organisations.

As co-host of Signal CyberPsych, she explores why people behave as they do and how culture, leadership and psychological safety affect security. At Sessions, Danusia brings that human perspective directly into the room.

Steve Gillham

Special guest

Cyber security mentor and trainer

Cyber mentoring and trainingExperience passed on

Steve brings more than 20 years of hands on cyber experience across major financial institutions and complex enterprise environments, spanning vulnerability management, network and cloud security, attack surface reduction, GRC and security leadership.

Alongside doing the job, Steve has spent years mentoring practitioners and developing security talent. At Sessions he brings practical experience, hard earned lessons and a genuine commitment to passing them on.

Host

Vin Marc Maguire

Host

Founder, Signal

SignalFounder

Vin has spent more than 25 years across cyber security as a founder, adviser, CISO and fractional CISO. In 2001 he founded one of the UK's early specialist boutique penetration testing businesses and has since worked with organisations right across the security maturity curve.

Having built security businesses, sold security, bought security and been accountable for it himself, Vin created Signal to make room for the conversations the industry does not have enough of.

The agenda belongs to the room.

What happens in the room changes with the moment. Sessions follow the issues security leaders are actually wrestling with, rather than forcing discussion into a marketing agenda.

1. 01AI and emerging technology
2. 02Risk and resilience
3. 03Security leadership
4. 04Third party pressure
5. 05Boards, budgets and difficult decisions

The questions evolve. The principle does not: useful conversation between people doing the job for real.

One day. One room.

Timings are indicative and may move slightly. Everyone attending is told before the day if they do.

Built for participation, not spectators.

Attendance is deliberately limited and the room carefully curated. Everyone is there to contribute, challenge, listen and share experience.

• 01CuratedPeople are invited because they can contribute to the conversation.
• 02CandidChatham House Rule creates room for the difficult part of the story.
• 03UsefulPeople leave with relationships and ideas they can actually use.

Different rooms. Same principle.

Tell us a little about yourself.

Sessions are invitation led and attendance is deliberately limited. If you are responsible for security, risk, resilience or the decisions around them, put your name forward here.

You're on the list.

We will take a look and be in touch. Sessions are deliberately curated, so invitations are confirmed individually.

See you in the room.
