The myth that companies can buy themselves out of risk is false. It doesn’t matter how much money you throw at a risk program, there is never a 100% guarantee that your company is safe from a breach. Keeping security risk to a minimum is the goal, but how do you contain risk when the playing field is constantly changing? Maybe CISOs need to look at risk management through a new/old lens.

Join this session to learn:

• Why a solid framework and effective prioritization is critical
• What is your risk tolerance and how to calibrate investments around it
• How to use risk to further discussions on future business alignment and investment

Come prepared to share ideas and forge new connections that can help empower each other to make an impact in your organizations and communities.

• Why having women in the C-Suite is so impactful?
• What is the difference between mentor and sponsor
• How CISOs play a critical role in advocating for women leaders

Time is critical in third-party risk decisions and security teams face a balancing act in conducting proper vendor due diligence without being perceived as the impediment to the speed of business. Data is critical to these risk conversations and the time has come to combine generative AI and third-party risk to enhance insights from third-party risk assessments and intelligence to accelerate vendor decisions.

Join this session to discuss the potential of generative AI to:

• Revolutionize the speed at which teams extract insights
• Improve efficiency, decision-making and reducing resources required for assessments and discuss a real-world use case
• Address challenges in the third-party risk lifecycle

Organizations worldwide are being faced with multistage attacks such as BEC, ransomware, and supply chain, that happen with the same basic steps in the same sequence. It’s been a decade since defenders began referring to this as the attack chain, but the attacks continue to successful with the same tactics, from phishing to Active Directory abuse to data exfiltration. So how do we finally turn the tables on adversaries, and take away what they depend across the attack chain?

Join this interactive round table as CISOs discuss:

• Understanding the evolving nature of initial compromises
• The art and science of preventing small compromises from becoming big incidents
• Reducing your team's workload by using the attack chain to prioritize controls
