Executive Summit

As Generative AI passes the peak in its hype cycle, CISOs are uniquely positioned to step back from the buzz and leverage the technology to generate real value for the business. From increasing productivity to understanding its limitations, it is critical to consider the potential for tangible, high-impact use cases.

Join Manjeet Rege, AI & ML Educator, Author and Thought Leader to explore:

• Eliminating the buzz to uncover the potential of AI technologies
• Finding the balance between technology innovation and business needs
• Navigating the future impact of Gen AI on the workforce and talent

 In the high-stakes world of cybersecurity, leaders face the unique challenge of guiding their teams through constant change and uncertainty. Navigating this roller coaster requires more than just technical skills; it calls for mindful leadership that fosters resilience and enjoyment amidst the chaos. Join this session to explore:

• Formulas for embracing ‘the pause’ 
• Tactics to use with your teams to avoid getting trapped in stress 
• Tapping into the growth mindset that is essential for people and organizations to thrive

Threats don't brake for CISOs with budget restrictions. And even when funds are low, the business expects you to ward off attacks. That means you'll have to increase success without increasing tools or talent.

Together with your C-level peers, discuss how to:

• Expand coverage without spreading it thin
• Deliver on the business's existing security investments
• Demonstrate the linkage between a safe business and a profitable one

Generative AI is being utilized by companies and employees alike–sometimes without permission. The normalization of this emerging technology has expanded the attack surface and left many security leaders feeling anxious and uncertain. Is generative AI worth the risk, and how should it be governed in an organization?

Join this interactive roundtable to explore:

• What to expect from the threat landscape as generative AI becomes increasingly normalized
• What adopting generative AI does to your attack surface, and if you should even allow it
• How to implement governance rules that your organization will follow

Connect with like-minded peers in a one-on-one setting through Evanta’s Peer-to-Peer Meetings. You will be matched with peers in your community based on your shared interests and priorities.

When Param Vig, SVP, CISO, Solventum built-out an entire security program from scratch, she wanted to do things differently. In just a 9 month time frame Solventum set out to modernize their program while building it, on-board an entire team of high-performing talent, and make strategic decisions to enable the business.

Join this session to learn the importance of: 

• Getting the business to the next evolution and being a champion of change         
• Having a mindset that goes beyond the industry playbook and seeing hurdles as growth opportunities 
• Creating a strong network up front, from staff to third-parties, and everyone in between

CISOs need more than a plan. They need to know what it takes to master the art of containment, eradication and recovery while keeping the business's costs (both financial and reputational) to a minimum.

Only in a room of your security-focused peers will you:

• Unlock specific, essential incident response practices
• Hear relatable cases of what is and isn't working for others in your position
• Gather the threat mitigation insights of your fellow cyber leaders

Ask 15 CISOs what it would take to feel truly confident in their identity access policies and you might get 15 different answers. One variable they might all benefit from considering, however, is up-to-date tooling. 

In conversation with your CISO peers, you'll address:  

• How much trust should be placed in your IAM toolbelts 
• Where, in light of major threat advancements, your equipment needs upgrading 
• Which IAM hurdles, if any, require more than tool-based solutions
