Atlanta CISO Executive Summit

 Managing compliance doesn’t have to be a drain on resources. By reducing the scope of compliance environments and leveraging scalable solutions, businesses can simplify audits and control costs. Discover how micro segmentation and cloud-based services can streamline compliance while improving security.

Join this session to explore:

• Minimize the scope of compliance to reduce audit complexity and costs.
• Scale security solutions with business growth for cost-effective protection.
• Eliminate costly on-premises infrastructure by utilizing cloud-based platforms

In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, cybersecurity has become a paramount concern for organizations worldwide. The CISOs ability to enhance their connection with the C-suite, and foster a collaborative environment is necessary to support the shared responsibility of safeguarding organizational resilience.

Join the C-suite to discuss how to:

• Integrate cybersecurity into corporate strategy and planning.
• Enhance communication between CISOs and the C-suite for better risk management.
• Foster a proactive security culture to address evolving threats.

Cyber threats are increasingly sophisticated and pervasive, making conventional TPRM approaches like questionnaires inadequate. AI/ML and threat intelligence have the potential to transform TPRM, as well as extending into 4th, 5th parties and beyond. Leveraging key insights can help CISOs stay ahead of evolving risks and enhance security programs, even with limited resources.

Join this session to discuss:

• Practical strategies for leveraging threat intelligence in TPRM
• Critical alignment of people and process elements with advanced technologies
• Acting on useful insights and data to manage supply chain risk

AI makes creating and consuming data easier than ever, with shadow AI and dark data presenting new challenges to security teams. As the tactics for protecting data evolve, security leaders must adopt a risk-based strategy to protect mission-critical data and safeguard innovation. 

Join this session to discover: 

• Effective practices for ongoing monitoring to identify risks
• Rapid investigation and response techniques for insider threats
• Strategies for evolving your data protection approach

 Cybersecurity measures are adept at detecting and responding to incidents across various layers, but the application layer often remains vulnerable. Many organizations have a massive vulnerability backlog that demands timely and effective defense.

Join us to explore:

• Understanding the scale of the backlog and strategies to prevent exploitation
• The intricacies of application and API protection within the security operations ecosystem
• Benefits of having a comprehensive blueprint that reveals attack surfaces, defenses, dangers, and connections

Security leaders face unprecedented challenges as evolving threats, including those posed by GenAI, rapidly increase enterprise risk. While new technologies offer defenses, they also introduce vulnerabilities. A cyber-ready workforce is crucial for organizational resilience, but how do you equip your organization to face the future of threats with confidence?

Join this interactive boardroom to discuss:

• Acting decisively under pressure to manage and mitigate threats
• Maintaining stakeholder confidence and protecting reputation during disruptions
• Sharing threat intelligence and preparing for long-term attack consequences

As cyber threats escalate, organizations must build resilience to effectively withstand and recover from attacks. Real-time threat intelligence provides CISOs with crucial insights to understand the company's risk landscape and respond swiftly. Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) is essential for fortifying resilience and enhancing communication with the C-suite and Board.

Join this session to discuss:

• Leveraging CTI to align cybersecurity strategies with organizational goals
• Using evidence-based threat intelligence to boost proactive defense and recovery
• Improving communication with executive leadership on risk management strategies
