In today’s data-driven economy, privacy and cybersecurity leaders are no longer just compliance gatekeepers; they are strategic risk managers operating under relentless pressure. New data use cases, rising enforcement, expanding threat vectors, growing consumer scrutiny and increasing contractual demands are reshaping what it takes to protect both data and trust. This session brings together leading voices from tech, advertising and law as they share how companies and institutions are evolving privacy programs from reactive compliance to proactive, business-aligned risk management. Packed with real-world examples, practical frameworks and interactive discussion, this session offers both newcomers and seasoned professionals a roadmap to strengthen privacy programs that can withstand current and future risks.

• How tomove beyond checklists and breach response by embedding privacy into daily operations, governance and decision-making.
• Proven strategies for cross-functional collaboration across legal, engineering, marketing, product and executive leadership.
• How to navigate shifting enforcement priorities, litigation trends, and technologies —from dark patterns to tracking tools — while demonstrating privacy ROI and program resilience.
