The pace at which digital business has progressed has meant that IT leaders must evolve their strategies quickly. This doesn’t mean only focusing on the ever changing technical capabilities of digital technologies, but rather how to conduct themselves in these leadership roles, both in their own teams and across the business. IT and Technology leaders must broaden their skillsets beyond technical expertise in order to become true leaders and pioneers of change.
Join this session for thoughts and insights into:
- How to build trust and transparency between IT and business partners
- Building diverse teams and building a culture of ‘giving back’
- How IT Leaders can leverage influence and leadership with key business units to strengthen their digital transformation vision
**This Session is for CIOs Only**

Noname Security
In today’s climate, having a holistic view on API security is key to protecting organisations from the ever-expanding API attack surface. Proactively securing your environment from API security vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and design flaws are among the biggest challenges that security leaders face. But how can CISOs identify and eliminate attack surfaces before an attack, and actively test APIs for vulnerabilities throughout the lifecycle, in addition to preventing real-time attacks?
Join this session to discuss:
- Remediating management and configuration issues before they become a problem
- Security testing for DevOps that integrates into the tools your team is already using
- How to build a framework and network architecture to support the rise in remote employees
