The escape route

From complexity to secure application connectivity.

Four checkpoints on the way out: the arc the roundtable follows, from fragmented connectivity to secure delivery across the hybrid enterprise.

Complexity

Fragmented connectivity

Application connectivity sprawls across data centers, cloud and distributed controls; policies are manual, siloed and hard to govern.

Visibility

Application context

See what actually needs to communicate, why, and which business service it supports, beyond IP addresses, ports and subnets.

Control

Govern every change

Automate policy change with guardrails so routine updates stop being slow, manual and risky.

Secure connectivity

Anywhere

Move from fragmented information to faster, application-centric decisions: secure delivery across the hybrid enterprise.

01The roundtable

What is this roundtable about?

A closed-door session on how application-centric security improves visibility, reduces risk and accelerates policy change across hybrid environments.

  • Senior CISOs, CIOs, CTOs and network, cloud & security leaders in one room
  • Opens with the AlgoCity “Escape the Complexity” challenge: real connectivity, ownership and change scenarios
  • A core question: how much application context do teams get beyond IPs, ports and subnets?
  • Explores discovery, automation and AI-assisted capabilities for faster, more informed decisions
Complexity
02The problem

What problem does it solve?

Security teams often lack a clear, application-centric view of what needs to communicate, why, and which business service it supports.

  • Connectivity spans increasingly complex hybrid and multi-cloud environments
  • Fragmented context and ownership make even routine policy changes slow and manual
  • An application-centric approach with automation and AI-assisted discovery reduces complexity
  • Accelerates change while maintaining continuous security and compliance
Visibility
03Why attend

Why should you attend?

Benchmark your approach with senior peers and pressure-test real-world decisions inside the AlgoCity challenge.

  • Unify visibility, policy governance and secure change across hybrid environments
  • Align connectivity decisions with business intent
  • Connect the challenge to application-centric visibility, automation and AI-assisted discovery
Control
Key Takeaways

What you’ll walk away with.

Four practical outcomes every attendee leaves the roundtable with.

From context to policy

A clearer framework for connecting application context to network security policy decisions across hybrid environments.

Sharper application discovery

Practical ways to improve application discovery when connectivity requirements are incomplete, unclear or limited to IP addresses, ports and subnets.

Automation & AI-assisted discovery

How automation and AI-assisted discovery can reduce manual dependency and help security teams build richer application context for policy decisions.

Peer perspectives

Peer perspectives on moving from fragmented policy management toward unified, application-centric control.

The Challenge · 150-minute run-of-show

About the partner

AlgoSec: secure application connectivity. Anywhere.

AlgoSec helps organizations secure application connectivity across complex hybrid environments. The AlgoSec Horizon platform provides an application-centric approach to network security management, helping teams gain visibility, automate security policy changes, reduce risk and maintain continuous compliance across data center and multi-cloud networks.

By connecting application context with security policy and change workflows, AlgoSec helps security, network, cloud and application teams deliver business applications faster while maintaining control. During the roundtable, AlgoSec will also explore how AI-assisted discovery can reduce the manual effort of building richer application connectivity context.
