There is no shortage of data available to the security function, but insights – the signals of a real threat that demands action — are a different story.

Join your peers to discuss:

  • How emerging technologies and evolving digital businesses are challenging security analytics
  • Best practices for monitoring user behavior and other dynamic risks
  • How to reduce the noise created by the growing number of threat detection technologies and data volume

In this session, Zscaler CEO Jay Chaudhry and Mauricio Guerra, CISO at The Dow Chemical Company, will discuss how IT is evolving to become the driver of enterprise agility and scalability. Once known as “the department of no,” IT’s focus has turned to enabling business objectives, such as guiding the move to work-from-anywhere, securing cloud-first strategies to minimize business risk, and simplifying and modernizing infrastructure to increase efficiency and reduce costs.

Chaudhry and Guerra will share their experiences leading enterprise digital transformation, including:

For large swaths of 2020, work would grind to a halt without the ability for employees to remotely access critical systems and information. With business’s survival on the line, many CISOs must set a strategy that securely enables the future of remote work.

  • Finding the balance between security controls and a rapid pivot to digital business
  • Effective security awareness training for a remote workforce

For many information security leaders, it’s not technology, but people, that form the weakest link in the organization’s defenses. Even personal social media habits can put a large enterprise at risk, and at a time when more employees are working remote, security awareness training must be top-of-mind more than ever before.

Join this virtual boardroom to discuss:

  • Effective strategies for security awareness training, including generational differences
  • How to hold users accountable
  • Gaining buy-in to roll out robust training programs across the organization
