Resilience is Strategy

November 18, 2026, Divani Caravel Hotel

In an era of growing and multifaceted risks, RESICONx will highlight resilience as the strategic pillar for the development and survival of organizations and businesses.

Smart Press’s New Flagship Event on Resilience

With the new brand event, RESICONx – Resilience & Business Continuity Conference – Smart Press marks the evolution of the broader security sector into a unified and integrated ecosystem for information, showcasing expertise, dialogue, and networking centered around the concept of resilience and business continuity.

Following Smart Press’s long-standing and established presence as a reference point in the professional security sectors through its specialized media, Security Manager and IT Security Pro, as well as its successful conferences InfoCom Security, Security Project, and Fire & Safety Forum, RESICONx comes to synthesize and expand this experience into a single, modern framework.

This new conference and exhibition acts as a bridge between the digital and physical worlds of security, capturing the need for a holistic approach to the resilience of organizations and infrastructures.

In a time when threats are no longer separated into physical and digital but coexist and interact, RESICONx comes to meet exactly this requirement: a unified view of security through the lens of strengthening resilience, business continuity, and crisis management.

With RESICONx, Smart Press shapes a modern, open, and dynamic platform for dialogue for the broader security and resilience sector, creating yet another new meeting point for a large community of professionals, decision-makers, practitioners, and experts from the public and private sectors who are called upon to face the challenges of an increasingly complex and interconnected risk environment.

Main Themes

The content of RESICONx is distinguished by its pluralistic topics, combining theoretical and practical approaches, while offering inspirational knowledge, innovative ideas, and dynamic networking, highlighting the following pillars.

Holistic Enterprise Resilience & Risk Governance

Resilience is not a fragmented concept but a unified strategic framework that connects the enhancement of security, risk governance, business continuity, and crisis management. This thematic pillar focuses on the overall resilience architecture of organizations, with an emphasis on interoperability and real-time decision-making using modern resilience-by-design models.

Cyber Resilience & Digital Business Continuity

Cybersecurity has evolved into a fundamental pillar of resilience, business operation, and continuity, and not just technological protection. Zero trust architectures, addressing ransomware and other cyberattacks, cloud disaster recovery, OT infrastructure protection, ensuring strong digital identities, and leveraging Artificial Intelligence compose a new environment of business resilience.

Physical Security 4.0 & Converged Security

Physical security and safety are being transformed through AI, IoT technologies, and automated surveillance systems. Unified security system management platforms, advanced video analytics with AI, drones and robotics, and the convergence of fire safety, physical, and digital security create a new ecosystem of proactive and intelligent protection for organizations and critical infrastructures.

Climate Resilience & Natural Disasters

The increasing intensity and frequency of natural disasters – such as wildfires, floods, and earthquakes – makes it essential to integrate the climate dimension into resilience, sustainability, and business continuity planning. This section focuses on integrating environmental data into risk planning, with an emphasis on prevention, early warning, and strengthening cooperation in civil protection and operational efficiency.

Regulatory Landscape, Compliance & ESG

The regulatory environment is becoming more complex, and compliance with standards and directives is no longer a formal requirement but a core component of operational resilience and corporate governance. The NIS2, GDPR, EU Cybersecurity Act, Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), and DORA directives define the operating framework, ISO standards create a competitive advantage, while ESG factors directly impact reputation and sustainable development planning.

Human Factor, Crisis Communication & Emerging Resilience

The human factor remains critical in every crisis and emergency management process, from designing, developing, and implementing plans and studies to making critical decisions under pressure. This section highlights the role of leadership, organizational culture, training, and workforce readiness in shaping resilient organizations. At the same time, it examines modern crisis communication practices, real-time information management, the utilization of digital media and social networks, as well as new technologies that enhance the capacity to predict, respond, and adapt to an ever-changing risk environment.
