Atlanta CISO Executive Summit

 Any given gesture — a nod, a point of the finger — unconsciously communicates powerful ideas and feelings that have tangible consequences. Top executives are generally proficient in their ability to interact with others, but the stakes are raised during high-level negotiations, reporting to the board, inspiring and empowering senior managers or dealing with tricky internal matters.

Join body language expert Chris Ulrich as he shares:

• Why every movement and action is magnified in high-level situations
• Tools and techniques to build rapport quickly
• How executives can communicate more effectively

Session details coming soon!

Despite varied efforts, from phishing simulations to security awareness campaigns, CISOs across the board keep falling short of their business email security goals. Learn how the security team at Carter’s Inc. is successfully protecting users and their business from volumetric threats like malware and spam, as well as advanced threats like targeted spear phishing and ransomware.

Join this session to learn how to:

• Protect against and respond to targeted attacks
• Leverage email and web isolation to protect users and identify threats
• Manage and deploy successful awareness and phishing campaigns

As organizations rush to cover gaps in an expanding attack surface, thanks to digital transformation and remote work, they are realizing that this strategy is creating an uncontrolled technology sprawl. Yet many organizations continue purchasing more tools than they can manage, actually increasing their overall risk while wasting limited program budget. How is your technology investment strategy helping you meet your security outcomes?

In this discussion, you will learn:

• The state of “tools sprawl” and data showing its impact on security organizations
• Insights and best practices to reduce complexity and increase tool efficacies
• Maturing your security posture to drive desired outcomes

 There's a saying in security that goes "if the user can do it wrong, they will do it wrong." But are security leaders truly setting their users - internal and external - up for success? Customers' expectations change rapidly, constantly, and permanently, and it's imperative for security leaders to challenge assumptions, communicate openly across the business, and continuously iterate for the user experience.

Join this session to hear:

• The importance of direct user feedback and how to effectively respond
• Practical strategies to discuss trust and access with other senior leaders
• Ways to improve the end-user experience while reducing costs and improving security
