Agenda

Coming Soon

The CIO & CISO Executive Summit agendas are driven by the mission-critical priorities identified among the community. Each agenda is uniquely crafted ‘by CIOs & CISOs, for CIOs & CISOs’ and will be available closer to the gathering. All topics and sessions will be inspired by the following themes.

Integrating AI in Cybersecurity for Enhanced Risk Management

Integrating AI into cybersecurity is revolutionizing risk management by enhancing threat detection, response times, and overall security posture. AI-driven cybersecurity solutions can predict and mitigate risks by learning from past incidents and adapting to new threats. This proactive approach reduces the window of opportunity for cybercriminals and minimizes the impact of potential breaches. Because AI can automate routine security tasks, this can free up talent to focus on more complex issues and strategic planning.

Collaboration and Co-Ownership to Drive Digital Innovation

So-called “digital vanguard” CIOs and their counterparts across the C-suite will achieve higher success by working closely together, co-owning digital initiatives, and sharing accountability across the business for optimal results.

Focus on Architecture and Innovation

Prioritizing the creation of a robust platform experience, ensuring architectural awareness, and co-creating innovation in all business areas will drive digital leadership and secure practices company-wide.
