Addressing the evolving threat to global connectivity

Protecting subsea cables is no longer a fringe concern, instead there is a real and growing threat to the infrastructure which underpins the global economy. Whilst many incidents are the result of unintentional accidents, the risk of deliberate sabotage and military action is increasingly on the radar of cable owners and operators, governments and military organisations.
 

Every week the press is awash with headlines about the risk to subsea cables, the connection between national security and infrastructure, or disruption due to cable cuts.

With recognition of the urgent and evolving threat, now is the time for a dedicated event bringing together key stakeholders from industry, government, finance, and defence to examine the issue and explore potential solutions. Co-located alongside Submarine Networks EMEA, the Subsea Security Summit & Expo will provide an essential and timely forum for promoting the protection of subsea infrastructure.
