Segmentation Hub 2027

We appreciate your interest in Segmentation Hub 2027 and look forward to meeting you. On April 14–15, 2027, we are bringing the host-based segmentation community back together in Frankfurt for two days of real-customer and market insights, fresh perspectives, and open exchange among peers.

Segmentation Hub 2026 - Quick Recap

In June 2026, Akamai hosted the very first Segmentation Hub. The idea was simple: create a platform where organizations share honestly how they approach host-based segmentation, including what worked, what didn’t, and what they learned along the journey.

Six customers from different verticals and scales presented their journeys with Akamai Guardicore, discussed use cases and milestones, and openly shared the challenges they overcame. We also covered Frontier LLMs and their impact on the entire IT security industry. Conversations continued well into the evening at our get-together.

Thanks to the feedback from participants afterward, the response exceeded our expectations. The resounding request was: Let’s do this again.

What You Can Expect at Segmentation Hub 2027

• Customer Stories from the Field
  Real-world experience from different existing customers remains at the heart of the Segmentation Hub. Four customers will share their journeys with Akamai Guardicore: their use cases, key milestones, the moments when things got bumpy, and the value they achieved.
• AI and Agentic AI
  AI is reshaping the entire IT security industry, including how organizations operate and how attackers maximize their results. Frontier LLMs, AI, and Agentic AI will certainly be a major focus during the two days. We will explore newly emerging risks and how to stay in control as autonomous systems appear, presenting how Akamai Guardicore Segmentation helps you successfully fight and win in conjunction with our third-party ecosystem.
• Trends in AI and Agentic AI from a Leading GSI
  Listening to one of the leading Global System Integrator industry experts on these two topics will provide valuable insights into how organizations plan to leverage AI and Agentic AI, as well as how they intend to maintain control and minimize various risk vectors.
• Insights from our US Field CTO
  We’re delighted to welcome back Michael Villar (Akamai’s US Field CTO), who joined us in 2026. Expect a look at what’s happening globally and what’s coming next.
