Presentation Highlights:

The online world is moving and growing at an exponential rate, particularly with the onset and implications of COVID-19. The growth also brings with it a greater threat of cyberattack. HyprFire is one of Australia’s newest cybersecurity companies, having spun out of Curtin University in January 2021. HyprFire’s mission is to power its customers’ active cyber defence systems against east-west attacks.

Please join LESANZ for a unique journey into the fast-evolving landscape of Cyber Security and the implications for the Privacy conundrum. Gain intriguing insights from the team at HyprFire as they navigate us through their innovation and commercialisation voyage, along with a live demonstration of their award-winning “Firebug” solution based on novel Power AI technology.

In addition, the HyprFire team will be joined by RSM for a panel discussion where the following topics will be explored:

• The innovation pathway in designing and developing unique cyber technology
• The growth and commercialisation journey from a university startup to a spinout company
• The critical importance of Security & Privacy advisory and how new cyber technologies play a strategic role
