Dragos, Inc., the global leader in cybersecurity for operational technology (OT) environments, today announced CEO Robert M. Lee is returning as a speaker at the World Economic Forum (WEF) Annual Meeting in Davos, Switzerland, speaking at the session, “On Guard, from Deep Sea to Orbit,” Wednesday, January 21, 13:15-14:00 CEST. Part of the Davos main programming, the session will feature Lee alongside international industry and government leaders. He will address cybersecurity imperatives for critical infrastructure and how organizations and nations can protect strategic interests in an era of escalating threats.
Cyber threats targeting critical infrastructure have evolved into a defining challenge for business resilience and national security. Many of these systems remain vulnerable due to blind spots that prevent organizations from detecting and responding to threats before they disrupt operations, impact revenue, or create safety crises. Meanwhile, AI adoption in industrial environments is bringing both unprecedented opportunities and complex risks.
When: Wednesday, 21 January, 13:15-14:00 CEST
Where: Salon (Zone B), Congress Centre, Davos-Klosters, Davos-Klosters, Switzerland
Livestream: The livestream will be available on the World Economic Forum YouTube Channel
