The 2024 theme
Ready for IT 2024!
Cybersecurity faster, now.
Simplicity!
What if digital transition and security were simple? Of course, we're not talking about simplicity in the sense of ease - your businesses and challenges are moving too fast for that to be easy! Instead, we're talking about common sense and rationalization.
Streamlining to get teams on board:
Whatever the size of the organization, we're no longer in the discovery and implementation phase (that's soooo 2020!), digital transformation is now in a mature phase: welcome to the era of optimization. Users represent a huge part of the attack surface; they are both customers and resources, so engaging them in your projects is crucial. In this age of optimization, we can and must rationalize needs as well as uses: it's all about sorting out the essential from the superfluous - it couldn't be simpler!
Common sense, a basic!
The human factor in our businesses is often considered the number 1 risk, but we forget to remember that it's also the number 1 solution. Of course, the foundation of any digital transition and security strategy lies in the right tools and the right partners. Thanks to this, players can capitalize on their knowledge of risks, issues and technologies, and on this technical foundation... it's here that talents can express themselves, and where common sense takes over to move towards greater efficiency. Simplicity is the key: in your business, it's the right tools, at the right time, for the right people.
For the past 5 years, Ready for IT has been a privileged witness and facilitator of this community. In the end, we, too, are looking for simplicity: the simplicity of a successful meeting, of a human and friendly exchange, of a kick-start conference, of an ultra-practical workshop! We're simply delighted to be here with you, and look forward to seeing you in Monaco!

Opening conference
Work in the age of AI: myths to deconstruct and realities to grasp
Tuesday 14 May at 11.30am | Camille Blanc Room
2 years after the explosion of generative AI, it's time to demystify the fears surrounding AI and work, by recontextualising the debate with scientific rigour. Far from replacing humans, AI is a tool that is reshaping our approach to work, particularly for intellectuals and knowledge workers. Aurélie Jean, a doctor of science, will give us a clearer picture and explore the true capabilities of AI, distinguishing between what AI can do, what it will never do, and what remains the exclusive prerogative of human intelligence. Addressing current concerns such as technological discrimination and environmental impact, we will consider existing solutions. This session aims to rethink work in the age of AI, valuing human intelligences and adapting our skills for the future, while offering suggestions for further reading on the subject.

Without people, there can be no digital transformation
Wednesday 15 May at 12.00pm | Camille Blanc Room
Digital transformation everywhere, all the time!
In addition to its impact on the global economy, digital transformation embodies the values of innovation, entrepreneurship and inclusion within society. It's not just a pile of tools and business plans, but a mine of opportunities to inspire our organisations AND the people in them! As Managing Director of France Digitale, Europe's leading collective of start-ups and investors, she plays a key role in the mission to create European digital champions. In this context of digital transition and acceleration, business is a key vector of inclusion, and it's an essential message that Maya conveys: "You can't innovate for a small part of society. The whole community needs to be represented if we are to build for tomorrow". Diversity, gender, social mix, the digital transformation is an opportunity; and an inclusive transformation will shape a better digital future for Europe!

That's why cyber security is becoming an imperative for all professionals involved in the supply chain, not just CISOs. This round table will explore the specific challenges faced by SMEs in managing third-party suppliers (service providers, partners, subcontractors, etc.) and the strategies they need to adopt to guarantee the security and reliability of their external partners.
