Session 1.5 Lunch Product Brief: Data Centricity, Video Enablement and AI Battlefield Systems: Shaping a New Era of Mission Collaboration
Tuesday, November 18, 2025
12:30 PM – 1:30 PM
Royal Theatre
As the complexity of mission environments increases and cyber threats accelerate in scale and sophistication, organizations must rethink how they protect sensitive information, enable seamless collaboration, and ensure trust across domains. This panel brings together four leading technology vendors – Pexip, Systematic, Janusnet, and archTIS – to share expertise and real-world insights on exploiting Zero Trust (ZT) architectures and integrating AI and video (VTC) into secure collaboration environments. In a panel style session, each vendor will answer questions about how their solutions address the unique security and compliance challenges facing Defence and Defence industry, from HQ to the tactical edge, and how together they are collaborating to ultimately support the warfighter with seamlessly integrated capabilities.
- How is the ZT principle “never trust, always verify” being applied across information sharing environments, data classifications and video conferencing /secure messaging?
- As an emerging methodology, how does Data Centric Security improve the agility of international mission interoperability without compromising protection?
- As battle management systems like SitaWare become deeply embedded in mission, how does integrated VTC sustain the “human element” in an increasingly digitised C2 landscape?
- What is the role of AI in closing communication gaps across alliances, automating security controls in line with ZT, and enabling effective, context-aware collaboration?
Whether you are at the beginning of your Zero Trust journey or seeking to enhance existing capabilities, join us for this solutions-focused session aimed at helping you design and operate collaboration and C2 systems that are resilient, intelligent, and secure by design.
Session 2.8c: Update – Building a Zero Trust Culture for PSPF Compliance with Data-Centric Security
Wednesday, November 19, 2025
4:00 PM – 5:00 PM
Menzies Theatre
Australia’s updated Protective Security Policy Framework (PSPF) now mandates the adoption of Zero Trust principles. Government organisations must align their cybersecurity strategies with the Information Security Manual and the Guiding Principles to Embed a Zero Trust Culture. In this session, Daniel Lai, CEO of archTIS—an Australian sovereign information security company—will share practical insights and best practices for implementing a Zero Trust Culture. He will explore how attribute-based access control (ABAC) and data-centric security capabilities can be leveraged to protect sensitive information and meet evolving compliance requirements.
Key takeaways will include:
- The core principles and cultural foundations of a Zero Trust approach.
- How ABAC enforces Zero Trust principles across systems and data.
- Strategies for achieving compliance with PSPF requirements through automation and policy-driven controls.
- Tools and technologies that support scalable Zero Trust implementation.
Attendees will gain actionable guidance on embedding Zero Trust principles into their organisations and understand how the right technologies can simplify compliance and strengthen information security.
