CISOs, Security, and the Shifting Landscapes of Regulations

CISOs face a dynamic regulatory environment in cybersecurity. Companies traded publicly in the US are grappling with SEC directives, with potential personal liability for CISOs in the balance. Organizations with global operations face layers of regulatory complexity, with ever-evolving directives across Europe, S America and Asia. Stringent requirements in emerging markets further complicate an organization's operationalization of compliance. This panel will explore strategies for navigating these shifting tectonic plates. We'll discuss how to build agility for regulatory flux into your security program and enhance internal/external relationships whilst safeguarding your organization and mitigating personal risk as CISO.

The Heavy Burden: Addressing Wellness in Cybersecurity Professionals

Cybersecurity professionals endure unique stressors daily. Unrelenting threat actors and a slow to learn user-base makes breach a question of when not if. An increasing number of our most seasoned cyber leaders have already felt the weight of personally liable on this score, further impacting our leaders and teams alike. This session will introduce bleeding edge research on this topic from the high-impact field of content moderation. Clinical research results from 1000 individuals over an 8-month period will be presented, following which a panel discussion will be held to consider what more can be done to support team wellness before, during, and after crisis.
