The Tech in Gov conference in on August 8 and 9 in Canberra, and is the most comprehensive cross-sector event for government, IT, and executive level professionals in Australia, with Yubico there each year to upgrade everyone’s cyber security – a video interview is below!
One of the biggest tech events in Canberra each year is the Tech in Gov conference and exhibition.
Always very well attended by government and business representatives, the event offers a comprehensive conference program, joined by a packed exhibition hall, uniting people such as ICT Managers, Chief Information, Data, Technology and Security Officers from Federal, State and Local Government, government business enterprises and national critical infrastructure, and connecting them with over 80 leading industry solution providers who showcase the most essential technologies, products, and service for digital innovation.
As the Tech in Gov site explains, the event is a great opportunity to directly evaluate products side by side, meet and connect with new suppliers, and start dialogues with thousands of peers across a wide range of public and private sector organisations.
And as you’d expect, a wide range of the most important tech topics are discussed and solutions showcased, from across the worlds of cyber security, artificial intelligence, identity management, data, analytics, communications and so much more.
One of the companies I’ve been following closely for some time is Yubico, whose excellent Yubikeys are a physical authentication key, upgrading security beyond SMS messages to a physical form of phishing resistant MFA or multi factor authentication, which I’m always happy to do when needed.
One of the people I speak to at Yubico is Geoff Schomburgk, the Regional Vice President for Asia Pacific and Japan.
Ahead of Tech in Gov, I caught up with him on Monday 7 August, 2023, over Zoom.
This was to get an update on Yubico in 2023, a sneak peek at the presentation Yubico will be giving in the conference part of Tech in Gov, to learn about the state of cyber security as Geoff sees it in what is now well into the second half of 2023, info on the Yubico stand at the event, and more!
So, here is my video interview with Geoff, please watch, read on, and if you’re in Canberra, get yourself to the Tech in Gov conference to learn more!
