Southern California CISO Executive Summit

We’ve all heard the saying “hindsight is 20/20 vision,” and that is often true for cybersecurity incidents as well. Blind spots which are obvious when looking back to how an incident played out are not merely technical shortcomings, but cultural and organizational failures as well. Join Ben Smith of RSA, a Dell Technologies business, for a review of:

• How an inability to communicate internally within an organization contributes materially to the success of an adversary’s attack
• The centrality of identity in nearly every breach
• Best practices to consider as you build out your own incident response capability

The cybersecurity profession has come a long way since the appointment of the world’s first CISO in 1995. We now live in a culture largely powered by technology that makes life easier and more complicated at the same time. As the need for security and security leadership in the digital space increases, we find ourselves asking the question, “What is next for the industry and for the office of the CISO?” Join Matt Crouse and Marc Varner as they take a glimpse into the future, revealing:

• How the role of the CISO is moving from a security focus to a risk focus
• If there will be a spot for the CISO at the C-suite table in the future
• How CISOs can evolve their contributions to the industry
  

Don't miss this peer-conversation on best practices and new approaches for data privacy and GDPR. Uncover answers to a variety of questions including:

• What are your biggest challenges with data protection?
• Should the CISO also be the Chief Information Risk Officer?
• What should we be watching for regarding GDPR and other privacy regulations?

Business and security - we are all on the same team. However, while the C-suite usually wants to move full speed ahead with new ideas, processes and technology, security teams sometimes need to put on the brakes in order to ensure that everything is safe and secure. Is it possible to make both sides happy? In this session, Ingram Micro's Kevin Kealy will share:

• How you can shift the company mindset about security
• Strategies to encourage successful adoption of security policies and processes
• How to inspire cooperation between the business and security

Security from the start and better collaboration are the keys to effectively reducing risks posed to an organization. With DevSecOps methods and principles, security controls can help organizations react faster to attacks. In this session, learn:

• The benefits of a DevSecOps approach
• How to implement DevSecOps in your organization

Forget everything you know about crime, war and espionage in cyberspace. Originally developed by the Department of Defense to improve our national security, cyberspace has become a battlefield we rely on but can’t defend. Furthermore, it is a risk to our military, political, economic, and personal security. Don’t miss this opportunity to get a sneak peek behind the scenes with Dr. Michael VanPutte, who will:

• Give you an insider’s perspective on the secret history, technologies and strategies of cyberwar
• Explain how our national policies have made us all less secure
• Share the tools to get beyond the hype, mythologies and marketing so we can all understand what President Obama called, “The most serious threat to our national security.”
