In a region defined by high-stakes technological leaps and ambitious national visions, UAE CISOs are operating as "risk sentinels" in one of the world's most targeted digital landscapes. As Dubai and Abu Dhabi lead the way in integrating AI, robotics, and smart city infrastructure, the challenge for security leaders is to harmonize hyper-innovation with robust data sovereignty and zero-trust architectures.

 

Join us at the 4th Annual 100 CISO Summit & Awards UAE 2026, where we focus on “Resilience by Design: Securing the Smart City and the Post-Quantum Frontier.” This year’s edition highlights how CISOs are reimagining their roles to protect critical infrastructure while enabling business agility. Sessions will explore the practical application of AI in threat hunting, the evolution of regulatory compliance in the Emirates, and the rising importance of cyber-resilience in the C-suite. Gain insights from Middle Eastern leaders through panel discussions that address the future of security in a tech-forward, high-growth era.

Dubai is a city and emirate in the United Arab Emirates known for luxury shopping, ultramodern architecture and a lively nightlife scene. Burj Khalifa, an 830m-tall tower, dominates the skyscraper-filled skyline. At its foot lies Dubai Fountain, with jets and lights choreographed to music. On artificial islands just offshore is Atlantis, The Palm, a resort with water and marine-animal parks.
