Topic Abstract: <\/strong><\/p>

What are the different types of CISOs in 2020? Ranging from the IT security ninja to the non-IT business expert, today’s CISO is responsible for protecting their organizations from an ever-changing threat landscape. This talk will examine those threats, along with common vulnerabilities and risks that keep CISOs up at night.
Some of the things that will also be discussed are:
a. The CISO of 2020 cannot operate alone and security is a team sport. Get to know your legal and compliance teams and don’t be a stranger to corporate communications folks either.
b. You don’t have to know the intricacies of manufacturing widgets but have a basic understanding of what you are trying to protect.
c. Test your program by “practicing” incident response exercises, penetration testing and making sure your employees know what to do.<\/p>

There will also be a look into plenty of non-technical areas that worry CISOs, such as regulatory compliance, third-party risk management, and attracting and retaining talent.
Think of this webinar as a “So you want to be a CISO” talk inspired by Tom\u2019s first year-and-a-half as a CISO at a new company.<\/p>

Key takeaways:<\/strong><\/p>

  • Communication is key.<\/li>
  • Understanding the business, you are in.<\/li>
  • Like any sport, practice is a must.<\/li><\/ul>
