Agenda
Virtual Summit Keynote Session
Taking Control in the Cloud
Are you challenged with uncontrolled costs and unknown risks from your adoption of cloud services? Concerned with whether your IaaS investments are endangering your security or compliance? Or perhaps you’re just watching your budget disappear seemingly on its own. You are not alone.
Join your peers for a discussion around:
Optimizing the cost of the cloud
Improving security, compliance and governance in cloud architectures
Leveraging the resources and controls you already have
Virtual Summit Boardroom Sessions
Do You Speak Risk?
Added to the list of bona fides for today’s information security leader is a multilingual mandate for speaking the languages of risk. Business risk, legal risk and more all intertwine with an effective security strategy, yet the owners of each area don’t always see eye to eye. Where business units aren’t looking at risk the same way, an opportunity opens for malicious actors.
Join this session to discuss:
Successful examples of cross-functional partnerships in risk management
Metrics that effectively describe risk within, and outside of, security
Tips for leveraging risk discussions to gain support for security
Mitigating New Third Party Risks
Many third-party risks are identified after initial onboarding and due diligence, suggesting traditional methods in risk management policy fail to capture new and evolving risks. As these external partnerships become increasingly complex, the need for a new vendor risk management approach is clear.
Join this conversation to discuss:
Establish business-driven methods for ongoing risk management analysis
Partner across the C-Suite to establish organizational buy-in
Strategies to employ an iterative approach to ongoing relationship management
