The Annual Cyber in Government Conference and Exhibition 2026

Amid ongoing digital transformation, increasingly sophisticated threats, and the growing reliance on third‑party suppliers, there is little room for complacency. Ransomware, supply‑chain attacks, and AI‑driven phishing campaigns are no longer hypothetical; they are real and escalating. Yet many public‑sector organisations remain under‑prepared: legacy systems are still in use, incident‑response plans are incomplete or untested, and vendor networks often lack adequate security oversight. Additionally, the sector faces a persistent shortage of cybersecurity professionals, uneven adoption of basic cybersecurity practices, and unclear guidance on emerging risks, resulting in significant vulnerability at the national scale.  

The Institute of Government & Public Policy’s Annual Cyber in Government Conference and Exhibition 2026 has been designed to address today’s most pressing cyber challenges. With a focus on resilience strategies, cultural transformation, innovative technologies, and the power of collaboration, the conference will examine how public sector organisations can adapt to emerging threats while preparing for the future of digital security. 

Join the Institute of Government & Public Policy at the Annual Cyber in Government Conference and Exhibition 2026 to explore practical approaches to reducing cyber risk, protecting sensitive data, and strengthening organisational recovery from attacks. Secure your place today to ensure your organisation is equipped to meet the evolving cyber threat landscape.
