The 2024 edition of the PwC Cybersecurity & Privacy Day will take place in the form of a physical event on Wednesday 5 June at Crystal Park in Luxembourg-Gasperich (Cloche d'Or).

This year's main theme is "The AI paradox: A blessing or a curse?". The transformative potential of artificial intelligence (AI) in revolutionising cybersecurity is evident, but safeguarding AI systems is crucial to prevent harm, noted PwC. The widespread adoption of AI is fuelled by powerful and affordable computer chips, making it accessible to organisations of all sizes, coupled with the exponential growth of digital data. As AI applications become integral to daily life, their role in cybersecurity becomes paramount, leveraging their efficiency in scanning vast data for anomalies and identifying risks.

As every year, one of the highlights of the PwC Cybersecurity & Privacy Day is the pitching competition; PwC is looking for the top five innovative solutions addressing major cybersecurity or privacy challenges. The five finalists will compete on 5 June 2024 live from Luxembourg for the two following awards: 2024 PwC Cybersecurity & Privacy Solution of the Year Award - Jury’s Choice and 2024 PwC Cybersecurity & Privacy Solution of the Year Award - People’s Choice. The audience will have the opportunity to vote for their favourite solution right after the live pitch.
