Agenda
Breakout Session
Transforming Cybersecurity — Building a Business-Aligned Risk Function
According to Gartner, CISOs report that the biggest hurdle to delivering on their mandate isn't budget or technology. It's misaligned or outdated cybersecurity organizational structures. To overcome these challenges, leaders will need to build operating models, partnerships and governance structures that scale with the business and transform cybersecurity into a strategic enterprise function.
Executive Boardroom Sessions
From AI Vision to Enterprise Impact
AI has moved into the core of enterprise strategy, reshaping business models and leadership expectations. As pressure to show results grows, technology and cybersecurity leaders must shift from early validation efforts to defining clear direction, driving accountability across teams and navigating rising costs and scrutiny. This peer discussion will cover how to set a clear AI strategy while communicating value, trade-offs and risks to the board and C-suite.
Securing the Physical World in a Digital Era
Physical security is evolving rapidly as traditionally siloed systems become increasingly connected and cloud-managed. Join peers to discuss the shift from legacy infrastructure and how organizations are approaching the convergence of physical security and cybersecurity.
Keynote Session
The Power of Partnership in Expanding Executive Influence
As organizations navigate AI, transformation and ever-evolving business demands, CIOs and CISOs must strengthen relationships across the executive team to drive shared objectives.
