Cybersecurity Symposium and Summit 2026 is scheduled for 17–18 December 2026 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC). The official theme — Cyber Security: From Emerging Threats to Agentic AI Governance — names the control question Hong Kong operators now face when generative and agentic systems sit beside classical network defence. HKISG publishes this community briefing so members can track the edition while registration and the full agenda remain “coming soon” on the organiser site.

Why this programme matters in Hong Kong

Agentic AI governance is not a slide title alone: it is about who may call tools, which data those tools may touch, how prompts and actions are logged, and how abuse is stopped when models act with privilege. A two-day HKCEC summit remains one of the few open rooms where public-sector observers, licensed-sector security leads, and vendors hear the same vocabulary in the same week. HKISG lists the programme as community calendar intelligence — not as a ticket office and not as a claim that HKISG chairs the agenda.

Hong Kong operators — from licensed financial institutions to SMEs and public-sector teams — still need rooms where practitioners compare operated controls, not only product slides. HKISG publishes this briefing so members can decide whether attendance, a speaking note, or a post-event debrief belongs on their calendar.

Who should attend

CISOs, security architects, AI governance and risk leads, SOC and fraud managers, and technology executives who must brief boards on both classical cyber risk and AI-era abuse paths. Students and early-career practitioners may use the programme as a market scan; treat vendor theatres as optional context rather than the reason to travel.

Typical readers of this HKISG listing include CISOs, security architects, risk and compliance leads, SOC managers, and technology executives who own cyber and AI security outcomes in Hong Kong.

HKISG’s interest in this listing

HKISG lists this industry programme so Hong Kong information security practitioners can find conversations that sit alongside our education and briefing work. Unless an organiser page names HKISG as a supporting organisation, treat the event as independent.

The series is jointly organised by the Hong Kong Productivity Council with leading Hong Kong security associations. Programme inquiries published on the official key visual point to cybersec@hkpc.org. Confirm venue floors, enrolment rules, and speaker lists on cssummit.hk before you plan travel.

HKISG does not sell speaking slots on this page. Treat the official event website as the live source of agenda, venue, speaker confirmation, and enrolment rules.

Themes practitioners should watch

Watch for sessions that separate agentic AI governance (tool permissioning, audit trails, human override) from generic “we bought a chatbot” narratives. Note which talks name Hong Kong legal touchpoints (PDPO, licensed-sector circulars, critical-infrastructure expectations) versus global slides that never land on operated evidence. Ask whether “emerging threats” are tied to detection owners and review dates.

After the session, capture a dated one-page note: what changed in your threat model, which control owner should act, and when you will review evidence. Pair that note with HKISG education, security bulletins, and the assessment methodology when the conversation touches Trust Review language.

How Hong Kong teams can take part

  1. Read this HKISG briefing for community context before you decide to travel, dial in, or send a colleague.
  2. Open the official event website hosted at cssummit.hk for agenda, venue, and registration rules — the 2026 edition is marked coming soon at the time of this briefing.
  3. Members who want a co-hosted briefing or a post-event note for the community may use the contact form. Proposals need identifiable organisers and a Hong Kong-relevant audience — not an undisclosed product pitch.
  4. If you are hiring or teaching, connect what you heard to HKCERT and HKISG so staff know when to escalate to the CERT versus when to use HKISG programme materials.
