Dallas CISO Virtual Executive Summit

Organizations are increasingly operating in an agile digital model where data flows seamlessly between on-premise networks, applications and cloud services. Yet that coherent user experience masks a complex attack surface, where security leaders must tackle a spectrum of vulnerabilities while preserving agile business operations.

 Join this session to discuss:

• The latest threat landscape for networks and applications
• How CISOs are navigating the balance of business agility and security controls
• Best practices for monitoring threats across complex networks

Innovative technologies can open the door to new solutions that can transform your business. However, they can also create clouds of confusion and new security risks. How do you determine what is practical, scalable and secure?

In this session discover how:

• You can introduce security earlier in the AI implementation process
• To identify potential areas of risk regarding AI
• Common challenges CISOs face in their AI journey

A strong IAM is one key to preventing data breaches and limiting the blast radius, should a security incident occur. But cloud IAM presents a new set of constructs for organizations to build and manage. Is this the most comprehensive identity and access control out there, or yet another layer of complexity added to your program?

In this session, you will discuss:

• Why managing cloud IAM is so complex
• The challenges cloud IAM creates for IT and cybersecurity professionals
• How leading organizations are governing cloud IAM to reduce risk and the chance of a data breach

As an organizational capability, insider threat management is changing - again. Firstly, the idea of context has changed the categories of insider threat, and secondly insider threat programs now maturing – evolving into a more justifiable and friendly trusted insider program.

Join this virtual boardroom to discuss:

• The evolving landscape of insider threats and its challenges
• The impact of changing behaviors, employee culture and workplace environment on insider risk
• Practical strategies for improving an insider risk management program

As 2020 changes the way we live and work, cyber criminals are adapting as well. Join us as we examine the biggest challenges security leaders face, and why a people-centric approach to security is everyone’s biggest opportunity to stop attackers and protect their organization.

Join Lucia Milica as she and a panel of CISOs discuss:

• Why social engineering dominates among today’s cyber threat actors
• How remote work and the move to the cloud has changed the nature of threats
• The ways their organizations are building controls to better understand and protect people

An informal and interactive opportunity for you to network with peers in small groups and discuss the importance of giving back. 

Organizations are feeling a shift in the world of networking and security as they rapidly adopt and embrace the cloud. On-premises private data centers are no longer the place for data and workloads to exist. With this shift, security and networking are brought closer than ever. Enterprises need speed, visibility, security and reliability without compromise. Enter, the secure access service edge, better known as SASE. Its’ inevitable that SASE implementations and zero trust implementations need to collide to provide a more comprehensive security capability to truly support digital transformation. How can your organization best position itself for the transition?

In this session, you will discuss:

• Problems SASE can address in the modern enterprise
• Benefits of planning both SASE and zero trust implementations
• Insights from organizations adopting SASE and zero trust today

Automation in the world of information security allows teams to move swiftly in the face of persistent threats. Efficiently employing actionable threat intelligence is key to staying ahead of the next wave of threats.

Join SecureWorks in this interactive boardroom and discuss:

• The future of security automation
• How automation and orchestration are playing a role in today’s security stack
• Strategies to reduce response time and incident impact

CISOs say that what they need most in their security program is confidence that people, processes and technology are working and effective, and that controls are in place to ensure resiliency in the case of a major event. But how do you measure that, and how do you effectively communicate across your organization’s leadership and the board?

In this discussion, you will learn:

• Why traditional metrics fall short of communicating security risk and value
• Which metrics have meaning for both boards and security teams
• How the right metrics will benefit the business and win investment for security

Security Operations Centers are often characterized by chaos. The volume and sophistication of security attacks is increasing at a rate that makes it tough for SOCs to have people, processes, and technologies in their right places.

Join this conversation to discuss:

• Contextualizing the bleakness of today's SOCs before casting an optimistic eye towards the future
• Current pitfalls including log-based detection, siloed tools, and manual processes
• Visualizing the ideal next-gen SOC

Some organizations lack resources to help them track and govern their data at scale. With large segments of the workforce now remote, data protection is more critical than ever. How can organizations work to combat this problem and ensure the data is properly managed and secured without impacting productivity or the customer experience?

Join this boardroom for a discussion on:

• Advances in automated processes that will improve efficiency
• Strategies to map and govern data
• How to ensure data compliance in a remote or hybrid workforce

CISOs face a constant tension between enterprise agility and enterprise security, and in today’s world, this dynamic often plays out in the context of cloud services. How can CISOs gain a centralized view over cloud security posture and workloads?

Join this session to discuss:

• Methodical approaches to securing cloud-based technologies, workloads and products
• Ways to standardize cloud environments
• Strategies to ensure compliance

At a time when customer trust is paramount and private data is precious, a major breach can be catastrophic for any organization. Effective security is an essential part of effective business strategy, yet security leaders face an ever-growing challenge to guide their enterprise through the evolving threat landscape.

Join this virtual keynote to explore:

• Strategies for addressing the emerging threat landscape
• The role today’s CISO plays in guiding business strategy to mitigate risk
• Communication strategies for educating users about security – and holding them accountable

Meet virtually for 1-to-1 in-depth conversations with your colleagues

Conducting business virtually makes it more challenging to meet and network with like-minded peers, and now it’s become even more critical to collaborate with CISOs who are facing the same challenges.

This is an opportunity to meet 1-to-1 in a private, virtual setting with community peers directly after the Virtual Executive Summit.

• Peer-to-Peer meetings are 25 minutes in length, giving you the chance for more personal interaction and in-depth conversation with your fellow CISO peers.

• All conversations are private and will not be recorded

• Meet up to 3 peers based on your shared interests or priorities

How to Participate 

Available if you sign up and select peer meetings prior to the summit. To join your meetings or download meeting calendar invites, please reference the instructions that were emailed to you from evanta@delegateselect.com.
