Global CISO Virtual Executive Summit

During this time of rapid innovation and continuous change, security leaders need to maintain centralized consistency and control of their data. However, they also must ensure that data authorization is agile, adaptive, and leveraged in a timely manner to meet business goals and objectives.

Join this keynote session to explore:

• Strategies that enable the right people to have access to the right data at the right time
• The importance of having consistent control over data authorization policies
• How you can provide audits and reports that can support effective regulatory compliance

What would it mean for the world of business if an organization could fully and effortlessly manage the access of its users? Every global enterprise requires safeguards to ensure that the right people are accessing the right systems and information, and finding that balance between agility and security is a unique challenge for any Global CISO. After so many years spent tackling this issue, has a new way forward revealed itself?

Join this session to explore:

• Prudent approaches to right-size the balance of security controls and agile access
• Ways your peers discuss strategy for trust and access with other senior leaders
• New technologies that are improving the world of IAM

Sophisticated enterprise risk management strategy is not necessarily the full mitigation of risk. For most Global CISOs, strategic risk management describes a cross-organizational framework to assess different areas of risk and determine when accepting those risks is in the net interest of the business. In order to inform strategy and accountability for risk management, Global CISOs must be able to leverage meaningful metrics and messaging.

Join this session to discuss:

• Metrics that work – and don’t work – in describing information security risk
• The role that the Global CISO plays in setting risk management strategy
• Effective cross-functional partnerships in risk management

Automation is the obvious solution to avoid overtaxing our security teams, but is it enough? How can Global CISOs inspire out-of-the-box thinking while designing security strategies that will enhance visibility into their systems?

Come together to discuss:

• Techniques to track asset inventory, including both managed and unmanaged devices
• How passive security can increase bandwidth
• Where to identify gaps and vulnerabilities within the enterprise

Enterprise security is even more critical as users, customers, and third-parties access applications in the cloud. But protecting the network perimeter is a concept grounded in legacy. Today, it’s about protecting users, applications and devices wherever they are. With digital transformation relying on cloud- and mobile-first technologies, the days of protecting corporate assets behind a security moat are over. Global CISOs must understand that network perimeter security is irrelevant in a cloud-first world.

Join this session to learn more about:

• Reducing attack surface by replacing legacy security infrastructure
• Preventing attack impact by minimizing lateral threat movement
• Stopping inbound threats and outbound data loss hidden in encrypted traffic

The threat landscape facing the modern global enterprise is only accelerating in scope and risk, as an ecosystem of well-organized bad actors assails organizations in a relentless assault. Security operations are an essential core of effective defense, but against an ever-expanding threat landscape, maintaining the advantage is no easy task.

Join this session to discuss:

• The modern ideal state for the security operations center
• Material changes to today’s threat landscape and threat indicators
• Strategies to operated a high-performing global SOC with limited resources

Security debt is defined by Dave Lewis, global advisory CISO, Duo Security at Cisco, as “the accumulation of the patches missed, the risks accepted, and the configurations misapplied.” So how do Global CISOs successfully protect their systems and information from this critical challenge, especially with the move to cloud computing and rise of IoT? By selecting the right tools and strategies.

Join this session to discuss:

• Prudent approaches to right-size the balance of security controls and agile access
• Ways your peers communicate strategy with other senior leaders regarding trust and access
• How to create defined and repeatable processes that include plans for action to eliminate security debt

Global organizations, which were already facing a paradigm shift in customers, channels and tech when the pandemic hit, are struggling to stay ahead of digital supply chain attacks. How can advanced technologies like artificial intelligence support the technical and human resilience needed regain equilibrium, reduce risk and reinvigorate the workforce to create a new, more secure vision for the business.

In this session you will discover how:

• Threat actors are leveraging your partners to target your organization
• AI can increase visibility into your systems
• Being proactive, rather than reactive, can positively impact and strengthen your defense against supply chain vulnerabilities

As we move toward the final quarter of 2021, what initiatives are you most proud of as a leader? What are your passion projects in your professional and personal lives? Grab a beverage and join this session to casually connect and celebrate the bright spots in a demanding career — and year.

Be among the first to see what’s new and next in the security solutions landscape. Three early-stage providers will get the chance to showcase their innovative solutions to the most pressing cybersecurity challenges before a panel of influential global enterprise CISOs – and you! – for coaching and feedback.

Meet virtually for in-depth conversations with your colleagues

Conducting business virtually makes it more challenging to meet and network with like-minded peers. During this time of disruption and uncertainty, it’s become even more critical to collaborate with peers who are facing the same challenges.
