As an entrepreneur, cyber risk expert and founder of CyQrd AG, Simon Thomas Dejung is one of the most prominent voices in the German-speaking world on the intersection of cyber security, risk management and economic decision-making.

Simon transforms one of the greatest management ambiguities into a decision-ready question:

„Do we invest 2 million in cyber security – or do we risk losses of 200 million?

In many board meetings, one key question remains unanswered: „What is really at stake?” This is precisely where Simon Thomas Dejung comes in. He creates decision-making certainty amidst uncertainty in a field that is all too often characterised by gut feeling, alarmism or false precision.

Simon Thomas Dejung Lecture topics

  • Cyber Risk & Investment

„The 2-million- or 2-billion-euro question” – your CISO wants a budget, your CFO wants proof. They’re both right!

  • Leadership & Decision-Making

Taking responsibility without knowing everything – risk as a leadership tool

  • Governance, Regulation & Resilience

Why NIS2, DORA & Co. alone do not ensure security. From Compliance to a Resilient Organisation
