Florida CISO Virtual Executive Summit

CIO-CISO partnerships are built on trust and thrive when leaders invest in each other throughout the organization. Last year, SYKES dealt with an increase in threats and attacks while pivoting to a remote workforce in 23 countries across the globe and the strong partnership between CIO Dave Pearson and CSO Christopher Rogers helped enable the company to quickly adapt and respond.

Join this keynote as Dave and Christopher share their story on how to:

• Strengthen the IT-Security partnership to fuel innovation and accelerate new technology deployments
• Ensure security is represented as a holistic element of the organization
• Collaborate in different business sectors while moving business initiatives forward

 For many businesses, the path of digital transformation presents challenges — including reliance on legacy systems, skills gaps and performance concerns. CIOs are challenged to provide a modern data protection solution that unblocks potential pitfalls and delivers the results their organization needs to succeed.

Join this boardroom to discuss:

• Building a comprehensive data management & data protection strategy that encompasses cloud, SaaS, virtual and physical workloads
• Accelerating data protection capabilities while maximizing potential to achieve governance, security and productivity goals
• Strategies to make data fluid across the enterprise while freeing up resources constrained by legacy tools and focusing them on accelerating innovative projects

Studies show that 74% of CEOs believe cloud computing will be the most helpful technology to deliver results over the next 2-3 years. How can businesses digitally transform with cloud, while ensuring they have a secure environment where customers’ data is not compromised?
Join us for an interactive boardroom that explores how businesses can:

• Make the transition to cloud rapidly while keeping experiences frictionless for consumers
• Build secure and open hybrid cloud architecture and distributed cloud environments
• Explore strategic cloud options and execute on them seamlessly

As organizations have embraced remote work out of necessity during the pandemic, the market for tech talent has shifted dramatically. Employers can compete for tech talent regardless of location while simultaneously creating a culture that is founded on collaboration and communication. This session will address the unique opportunities the work from anywhere movement have provided to enable a productive and purpose-led organization. 

Join this session for a discussion on:

• What you can do to maximize the benefits of a distributed workforce
• How you’re thinking about the future of talent and culture
• How an increasingly remote tech talent landscape can provide more equitable access

In 2020, the multi-decade process of turning the digital enterprise inside out accelerated instantly. We’ve now passed an inflection point – most cyber assets live outside the old “walls” of the organization and cybersecurity controls must be scalable, flexible and reliable. How are CIOs partnering with CISOs to establish a security strategy that is an enabler of the digital business rather than an obstacle?

In this interactive session, you’ll discuss:

• Redesigning cybersecurity architecture to enable the work-from-anywhere culture
• Foundational technologies to support a global cybersecurity mesh
• Reconceptualizing traditional ideas of how to approach security within the enterprise and shifting the business mindset

Remote work is here to stay for many organizations, which creates myriad new opportunities and imperatives for IT and security solutions that power cross-company collaboration. Is your current application portfolio up to the task?

Join this session to discuss:

• Gaps and challenges in your current solution set
• Integrated, user-centric solutions that make collaboration seamless
• Strategies for expanding upon existing cloud frameworks to evolve with the current landscape
