CYBICS 2026: How ENTRYZERO and thyssenkrupp Materials Services secure supply chains

Cyberattacks, new regulatory requirements, and increasing digitization are presenting companies with ever greater challenges. How organizations can remain capable of acting even in crisis situations was therefore the focus of CYBICS 2026, held on June 10 and 11 at O-WERK on MARK 51°7 in Bochum.

The conference, organized by isits AG International School of IT Security, brought together experts from business, research, government, and security agencies. With more than 100 attendees, it exceeded its original participation target.

CYBICS 2026 made clear that cybersecurity is no longer solely an IT department topic. Attacks on companies can now bring entire business processes to a standstill, disrupt supply chains, or cause significant financial damage.

AI & cybersecurity: the automated path to a secure supply chain

Together with Oğuz Çakırcı, CISO of thyssenkrupp Materials Services, ENTRYZERO represented by Dr. Mohamad Sbeiti shared how artificial intelligence can help secure digital supply chains effectively and sustainably. Using a practical example from thyssenkrupp Materials Services, they showed how AI-powered automation creates transparency, identifies risks early, and prioritizes them precisely.

Key takeaways:

• Continuous, AI-powered monitoring of attack surfaces
• Early risk detection across the supply chain
• Automated prioritization of vulnerabilities
• Concrete measures to strengthen digital resilience

Why ENTRYZERO?

The problem is clear: IT landscapes keep growing more complex, and security teams are already working at their limit. At the same time, the industry keeps producing more dashboards, more alerts, and more partial solutions. But more information doesn’t automatically mean more security - often it produces the opposite: even more strain.

That is why at ENTRYZERO we are taking a different path: From copilot to pilot.
