SUMMARY:Converged Security SIG Webinar - Converged Security: Where Is It Heading?
DESCRIPTION:What you need to know\n\n \nDate: Tuesday 6th October 2026 \nTime: 12:00 – 13:00 \nVenue: Online \nEvent Overview \nMost organisations recognise that cyber\, physical security and organisational resilience are increasingly interconnected. The challenge is deciding how those disciplines should work together\, who should own them and how to build an approach that genuinely improves risk management. \nJoin us for an informal panel discussion exploring the current state of converged security\, the drivers behind it and where organisations are seeing success and challenges. We’ll discuss how the threat landscape is changing\, whether current operating models remain fit for purpose and how emerging technologies\, including AI\, are influencing security decision-making. \nThe session will begin with a moderated conversation covering topics such as ownership\, governance\, risk management and the future direction of convergence. We’ll then open the discussion to attendees\, creating an opportunity to share experiences\, ask questions and debate the issues that matter most. \n  \nDesigned for security\, cyber\, resilience and risk professionals\, this is a practical discussion focused on real-world challenges rather than theory. \nSpeakers: \nGarry Bergin is CSO and Director of Client Solutions at Manguard Plus\, with over three decades’ experience in strategic security management and operations. He co-chairs The Security Institute’s Special Interest Group on Converged Security and is a Chartered Security Professional\, ASIS-certified CPP\, published author\, senior lecturer and current Irish OSPA winner for Outstanding Security Consultant. \nChris Worthy spent 36 years working for the UK Government in a wide range of national security roles\, including three years at the British Embassy in Washington liaising with US agencies and helping establish the Defending Democracy Ministerial Taskforce. He now advises academia and companies on resilience to state threats and is a Visiting Professor at Coventry University Protective Security Laboratory. \nKatie Barnett is Director of Cyber Security at Toro Solutions. With more than 20 years’ experience in IT and cyber security\, she helps organisations understand and manage risk through practical\, proportionate security strategies. Her expertise spans security reviews\, ISO 27001\, Cyber Essentials\, incident response and security governance. \nGavin Wilson is Director of Physical Security & Risk at Toro Solutions. With over 20 years’ experience\, he has led security reviews\, risk assessments and security design projects across corporate\, government and critical infrastructure environments. He supports organisations in improving security\, resilience and risk management. \n  \n** Open to SyI Members and Non-Members **
