Surfers' Lounge

Ever wondered what risk managers actually do — and what keeps them up at night?

Join us for an evening of stories, insights, and real-life examples from the people whose job is to anticipate the unexpected. From phishing tests disguised as “Beer Friday” invites to the fine line between risk and marketing, our speakers will reveal what modern risk management looks like behind the scenes.

You’ll hear two short talks from Surfshark’s Risk Team:
▪️Paulius Dauknys — The biggest company threat is you
Go behind the scenes of Surfshark’s riskiest tests — from QR-code phishing traps to live infiltration attempts — and discover why human behaviour remains the ultimate security challenge.

▪️Viltė Zarembaitė — It’s complicated: a (profitable) love story between Risk and Marketing
A story about unlikely allies: how collaboration between risk and marketing can protect a company’s reputation and its revenue.

Then, stay for a panel discussion:
▪️What keeps risk managers awake at night in 2025?
Featuring risk professionals from Surfshark, Vinted (Goda Marija), Oxylabs (Vaidotas), and Nord Security (Justina). Together, they’ll explore the biggest risks shaping 2025 and how companies can prepare for them.
