Keynote and Delegates

Keynote Address

Hacking a Billion Dollar Bank in Twenty Minutes

Step into the shoes of Jane, a hacker operating in the digital underground. Based on real-world techniques and true stories from the field (with names changed to protect the guilty), this live, story-driven session follows Jane as she profiles a major financial institution, finds its weak spots, breaks in, and walks out with the crown jewels.

Combining narrative, technical insight, and a live demo, this talk reveals how attackers think, how they break through layered defences, and how organisations and individuals can stay one step ahead.

From phishing emails to privilege escalation, and from password hygiene to personal device risks, the story weaves together key lessons that apply both at work and at home.

A high-stakes cybercrime thriller told from the inside.

Glenn Wilkinson

Glenn Wilkinson is an ethical hacker who spent years breaking into banks, governments, and global companies, all with permission. Today, he is a keynote speaker known for bringing audiences inside the hacker’s world to reveal how attackers think and what the rest of us can learn from it. His talks combine live demonstrations, real attack stories, and insight into risk, resilience, and human behaviour. Whether showing how a billion-dollar organisation can be breached in minutes or unpacking the mindset that makes attackers effective, Glenn leaves audiences thinking differently about pressure, systems, and staying one step ahead.

Glenn has spoken at Black Hat and DEF CON, and for Fortune 500 companies, law firms, public sector bodies, and global media. His work has featured on CNN, BBC, and Channel 4, and even in a Broadway production with Daniel Radcliffe.

Alongside his speaking work, Glenn runs Agger Labs, the team behind Agger, a tool built to kill ransomware. He is a Rhodes Scholar and holds two Master’s degrees from the University of Oxford.
