Executive Summit

"I am not interested in transformation," said no CEO ever. Everyone is transforming, and so they should be. The problem is that transformations can feel like pushing water uphill, with leaders exhorting their people to change and despairing that they ever will. So, what is missing? Three ingredients, which Ms. Mesaglio will highlight in this keynote session.

CISOs understand that an organisation’s supply chain is often considered the weakest link. With third-party breaches on the rise, CISOs must develop a robust vetting system to stay ahead of the threat curve.

Join this boardroom to discuss:

• Collaborating with business partners to deliver a supplier vetting system
• Implementing compliance certificates to better protect the enterprise
• Balancing responsibility for a breach, between the CISO and the third party

Artificial intelligence has the potential to drive efficiency and technological innovation. Yet taking advantage of this opportunity in the wrong way can have serious security consequences for the organization. Security leaders need to anticipate and prepare to mitigate potential risks as data is increasingly accessed and analysed in increasingly different ways. For business stakeholders to secure investment, how can CISOs demonstrate the benefits of these technologies?

Join this boardroom to learn about:

• How AI plays a role in sophisticated attacks today and how to prepare
• How leaders can use AI capabilities to enhance cybersecurity and demonstrate value to the business
• Examples of how to leverage AI to process and analyse large volumes of data quickly and safely

Connect with like-minded peers in a one-on-one setting through Evanta’s Peer-to-Peer Meetings. You will be matched with peers in your community based on your shared interests and priorities.

Digital business is driving the migration of workloads to the cloud at a greater pace than ever. However, managing “usual” IT risks in a fundamentally different IT ecosystem means organisations are struggling to understand which challenge to tackle first. Securing cloud applications, managing governance, and upskilling people are three scalable pillars to master on your cloud transformation journey.

In this case study we will discuss how to:

• Obtain a 360° view of the Shared Responsibility Model and ensure business framework reflects your cloud transition goals
• Integrate providers, tools and services to simplify security stack and secure a larger attack surface
• Educate people to adopt a secure by design mindset and increase collaboration between developers, cloud operations and security teams

Cyber & IT wages are inflating at a fast rate, and new employees are being recruited elsewhere days before they start their new roles. Recruitment and retention require out-of-the-box thinking to stay ahead of the competition. In this interactive session, CISOs and CIOs will come together to discuss lessons learnt and strategies to apply in the months to come. You will brainstorm: 

• Understanding what makes your employees happy and strategies to combat staff turnover
• Fostering a culture which nurtures and rewards existing talent
• Rethinking your job requirements to diversify the entry point for the IT and security professions
