In this session, discover strategies for transforming yourself and your message into something worth noticing. Carmen Simon delves into the field of neuroscience, revealing how the brain processes information.

How can we maintain confidence in the face of on-going cyberattacks? Unfortunately, an arsenal of traditional technologies has not protected organizations. And as attacks become more frequent, confidence wavers. Will CISOs ever find an adequate defense? Today’s evolving threat landscape calls for an equally evolved strategy. Organizations must find ways to remove the bullseye and promptly detect potential attacks, which means having enough situational awareness to respond quickly to contain and reverse damage. During this session, discover the steps you can take in your journey to resilience to keep damage to a minimum.

For years, primary threat prevention was based on signatures, assuming all types of cyberattacks had been seen before. Today, malware mutates daily, even hourly, making signature-based prevention tools obsolete. To meet these new challenges, organizations are now turning to innovations in artificial intelligence to help identify and block unknown threats. Are you ready to take your program to the next level? During this peer discussion, discover what advances are up and coming. Don’t miss this opportunity to explore effective strategies that can help integrate AI into your daily security processes.

Join Deputy Mayor Jeff Gorrell and Karl Mattson as they discuss the importance of information sharing, collaboration and strengthening the bonds of public and private partnerships.

One of the best ways to check your assumptions in business is to know where you stand among your peers and allow them to challenge your assumptions. But even if you have a speed-dial full of trusted associates, this type of information sharing can be piecemeal and infrequent. This interactive session is a chance to baseline your security program and explore context around the people-centric security. Join Sean Frazier and take this rare opportunity to compare your program with your peers and walk away with actionable insights.

The threat of a breach – and the potential of losing customers’ private data – creates an added layer of complexity under new GDPR regulations. The recent requirements place a hefty monetary penalty on impacted organizations that lose personal data, and possible future regulations will only increase the burden. While these rules hold companies to a higher standard, they creates an additional consequences when the inevitable breach happens. In this session, executives discuss ways to ensure data integrity and explore methods for protecting personal data – such as encrypting – that can support future compliance.

The process of finding, assessing and remediating vulnerabilities in a network requires constant vigilance. As daily life is inundated by ever more apps, devices and connections, a company’s infrastructure gets more complex, and more points of entry – and attack – are exposed. It’s a fight where the bad guys never sleep, in turn requiring the enterprise to seek out a continual influx of new data, tactics and defenses just to keep from falling behind. This interactive discussion will bring together peers working toward the common goal of prioritizing threats and establishing a comprehensive process for managing vulnerabilities.

We have seen unprecedented scrutiny by business leaders and consumers concerning issues affected by cybersecurity and privacy. In response, the CISO has been elevated as business leader – although generally viewed as supporting the business agenda as opposed to getting in front of it. Mike Wilson will share his personal journey and a couple of case studies to support his contention that the CISO function and role is being disrupted by a wave of change associated by the emerging digital organization. The opportunities in the wake of this disruption for our field are real, we need to rethink our role and given the pace of change are forced to play the game of amateur futurist.
