ABOUT THE EVENT

India’s financial institutions are rapidly evolving their cybersecurity strategies as identity becomes the primary attack surface. While investments in Zero Trust, IAM and modern authentication continue to grow, sophisticated phishing campaigns, credential theft and AI-enabled attacks continue to bypass traditional MFA approaches.

Join an exclusive closed-door roundtable hosted by Yubico, where leading BFSI CISOs will exchange perspectives on the future of authentication, regulatory expectations, passwordless adoption and practical approaches to building phishing-resistant identity security.

This interactive discussion is designed to encourage peer learning, candid conversations and the sharing of real-world experiences among security leaders.


Topic of Discussion

  • What’s keeping CISOs awake today?
  • Are passwords finally becoming obsolete?
  • Is OTP still fit for purpose?
  • How are Indian banks preparing for passwordless?
  • Board expectations versus operational realities
  • Practical challenges in deploying phishing-resistant authentication
  • Are today’s authentication controls keeping pace with evolving phishing and identity threats?
  • Is OTP still fit for purpose in a regulated financial environment?
  • What do RBI and SEBI expectations mean for identity and authentication strategy?
  • How should CISOs demonstrate measurable cyber resilience and regulatory readiness to the Board?
  • Where does authentication sit within the broader RBI/SEBI cyber-resilience framework?
  • How does identity security intersect with DPDP requirements around protecting personal data?
