UK | Simplifying Security across Firewalls & Public Clouds

  • VENUE | L’oscar London
  • LOCATION | London, United Kingdom
  • DATE | July 2024
  • TOPIC | Simplifying Security across Firewalls & Public Clouds whilst staying Audit-Ready

Yesterday, London’s L’oscar played host to an extraordinary evening of networking and thought leadership, as senior cybersecurity professionals gathered for an exclusive roundtable dinner on the topic of simplifying security operations across firewalls and public clouds. Our attendees enjoyed engaging, insightful, and highly valuable discussion that left them with actionable strategies and fresh perspectives.

L’oscar blends luxury, history, and privacy; once a Baroque-style Baptist church, L’oscar has been transformed into a lavish boutique hotel with opulent interiors, intricate décor, and a warm, intimate ambiance. The grandeur of the setting enhances the prestige of the event, making it an ideal backdrop for enlightening and meaningful conversation.

Our guests partook in a delightful champagne reception, followed a complimentary three course meal and a thought-provoking dialogue, which included topics such as:

  • Exploring proven methods for simplifying firewall policy management and enhancing security frameworks.
  • Uncovering strategies to streamline audit readiness and maintain seamless regulatory compliance.
  • Effectively balancing risk management and compliance without compromising network speed or agility.
  • Gaining insights into best practices for achieving complete visibility across hybrid and complex network environments.
  • Enhancing both security measures and operational efficiency as network infrastructures expand.
  • Discovering how automation can optimize compliance processes, reduce manual workload, and improve accuracy.
  • Strengthening security and ensuring compliance with: 90% faster deployment of new firewall rules / Policy changes implemented in minutes instead of weeks / o 100% accuracy in reporting, eliminating costly errors.


With 90% reductions in firewall rule deployment times and significant gains in efficiency, the lessons from last night’s roundtable will no doubt transform the security posture of many organisations. FireMon’s innovative approach has set a new standard in cybersecurity management—proving that with the right tools, security can be a competitive advantage, not a roadblock.

  • Organisations attending included – Balfour Beatty / Bank of England / Deutsche Bank / JP Morgan / KOEHLER / Lloyds Banking Group / Mace / McCann Worldgroup / Royal Mail / Royal Bank of Canada / SSE / MullenLowe and Mizuho Bank amongst others
  • Job Roles included – VP EMEA / Head IT Security Systems and Archer Governance / Risk and Compliance / Head Cyber Security / Head of Onboarding / VP Asset Management / CISOs / Director of IT Compliance and Information Security / Chief Risk Officers / VP Compliance / Business Information Security Officer / IT Director and CIOs

“Great food and good company. Loved the location, too. I think the collection of delegates was good. Some engineers and techies, and some senior management whose view of this space is very different. On the evening, the techies had it!”

– MullenLowe
