Inner Circle

Today’s cybersecurity environment often feels like a race, and the enterprise’s position on the track is constantly shifting from first to last depending on the course they plot for themselves and the cybercriminals’ ability to stay ahead. Historically, the odds have been stacked against IT – the constantly changing landscape, a lack of dedicated resources, and the need for emerging skills are daily battles for the CIO and CISO. AI is rapidly changing the cybersecurity landscape. On the one hand, AI can be used to create powerful new security tools that can help organizations detect and respond to threats more effectively. On the other hand, AI can also be used by malicious actors to create more sophisticated attacks. Though it might feel like a zero-sum game, what if IT proactively took control by implementing cloud-first security approaches? Could these strategies keep the enterprise at the front of the pack?

Join this conversation with your peers to explore how IT could position themselves for success:

Keeping Pace with the Evolving Threat Landscape

• What are the biggest threats that your organization is facing today, and how are you monitoring the threat landscape?
• What are your top priorities for cybersecurity? What are your top challenges? How have you seen these goals and challenges shift over the last year?
• As the enterprise is building complex cloud environments to help the organization be more agile and make decisions faster, how do you balance the need for security with the need for data accessibility and employee productivity?

Taking a Proactive Approach to Cybersecurity

• How does your organization define proactive security control, and how has this approach helped your organization reduce the risk of cyberattacks?
• What sort of challenges have you faced internally with securing funding for cybersecurity before an attack occurs? And the challenges when implementing cloud-based security features?
• When securing funding, how have you justified the costs of proactive security control? What objections have you had to overcome in discussion with the board and leadership?
