Gartner Security & Risk Management Summit 2026: Adapting for AI

Editor's note

The Gartner Security & Risk Management Summit gathers CISOs, business leaders and decision-makers with Gartner analysts to explore the current and future state of cybersecurity.

This year's Summit is being held June 1-3, 2026, at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center in National Harbor, Md. Featuring 62 Gartner analysts and more than 110 research-driven sessions, attendees will learn the latest about application and data security, AI, cyber-risk and cyber-resilience, the evolving threat landscape, and leadership and personal effectiveness.

The theme this year is "Smarter, faster, stronger ... together." To withstand the current cybersecurity storm, the community must come together to share insights that enable organizations to address mission-critical challenges quickly, efficiently and effectively.
