Keynote Presenter: “Navigating Enterprise Security in a Post-Compromise Reality“
John Matthews CIO |

Every organization gets compromised – it’s how you fast you detect and respond to an incident that counts. This is especially important when you look at trends like the overnight move to remote work, the subsequent increase in phishing attacks and acceleration of cloud adoption, as well as the proliferation of enterprise IoT that have expanded the attack surface and complicated the job of security professionals. We’ll explore those trends and the opportunity that lay ahead for security teams post-compromise to prevent an event that results in an outage or an incident from becoming a full-scale data breach.

Thought Leadership Presentation: “Never Let a Good Crisis Go To Waste – Zero Trust in the Age of Covid“
Chris Perry Cyber Security Expert Veteran, Army Cyber Command |
read more »
The jarring transition to work from home has immediately impacted the effectiveness of our security architecture which has most security leaders asking, “how can we do this better?” In this session we will explore the growing trend of “Zero Trust” and how the latest security best practices can be used to address the current gaps organizations are facing, in a remote work force, and why this will ultimately lead to a more resilient security posture.
Key take aways:
– Traditional security architecture is no longer sufficient for defending the IT enterprise
– The core principles of zero trust secure organizations for current and future crisis
– Effective zero trust requires extending the principles to all servers and endpoints, even legacy systems

These unprecedented times may usher in a new world for security and risk professionals… but are they ready? With many organizations anticipating full-time remote work and acceleration of digital initiatives, CISOs are increasingly being asked to adapt to the speed of business and demonstrate value to the organization. How can security and risk leaders adapt to the new normal? What changes must they make to their programs? How can security enable the business to succeed — moving beyond the “cost center” mindset? Join this discussion, which will explore the changing role of the security professional, the rise of quantitative measurement and metrics, and how you should be thinking about your program and relationships with executives in the months and years ahead.

Executive Vision: “How AI Augments Humans: Closing Skills Gaps & Driving Executive Decisions“
Mike Beck Global CISO |
read more »
Alongside the rise of today’s dynamic workforce, the speed and scale of sophisticated cyber-attacks is rapidly increasing. As the cybersecurity industry continues to endure an ongoing skills shortage, over-worked and under-resourced teams urgently need augmentation in order to defend against evolving, sophisticated threats.
For over three years, Darktrace experts have been working to meet this challenge, investigating whether they could teach AI to think like a cybersecurity analyst. It takes subtle, nuanced skills and implicit knowledge for an analyst to detect genuinely threatening activity, and the creation of the world-first Cyber AI Analyst took analyzing over one hundred of the world’s top threat analysts and complex machine learning algorithms.
Join Mike Beck, Darktrace’s Global CISO, as he discusses the Cyber AI Analyst in action, and how the capability detected and prevented a large-scale worming attack in real time.

In today’s digital landscape, the role of the CIO and the CISO have become the most dynamic amongst their peers. CIOs are focused on finding the most transformative technologies that enable them to bring value to their enterprise and customers. The CISO is at the center of the security dialogue and is ultimately responsible for the guidance and leadership of an increasingly intricate technology landscape.
Given the weight of that responsibility, the search for the most transformative solutions that enable them to prepare and protect the enterprise is constant and the need to stay ahead of the curve, a must.
