17:30 - 18:45  Discussion Topics

Redesigning Partnerships Across the C-Suite to Accelerate Secure Digital Business

CIOs and CISOs find themselves in a challenging context of budget constraints and increasing demands from the organisation. This, combined with an ongoing pressure for greater efficiency, means that IT & security leaders must focus on transparency and communication across the C-suite to better exceed the outcomes from their digital technology investments and drive value. But with the ever-increasing complexity of digital business and AI innovation, scaling governance and enabling consistent ways of working can be tough to deliver.

How can CIOs and CISOs better drive an understanding that secure modernisation is a shared responsibility? What are the best ways to engage business colleagues in new, agile ways of working and co-deliver initiatives together?

Join your peers to discuss how to drive business value and true collaboration across the organisation.

Topic 1: Engaging the C-Suite and Driving Secure Modernisation

  • How are you currently working with your C-suite to overcome budget, talent and capacity constraints? How should this change in the face of scarce resources?
  • What strategies are you employing to communicate risk across the board?
  • How have you worked with senior executive leaders to optimise operating models to better manage and deliver digital capabilities?

Topic 2: Scaling Governance and Best Practices Through a Shared Responsibility of IT and Security

  • How do you work with C-suite counterparts to scale governance and enable consistent ways of working across the business?
  • How are you adapting your approach to advise on safe and secure practices across the business especially during a time of innovation and modernisation?
  • In an age of advancement, what is your data governance strategy? How are you communicating that strategy across the business?
