Cyber Risk as a Business Enabler

Registration is no longer possible

Roundtable Dinner

Wednesday, January 16th, 18:30 EDT

An exclusive dinner discussion for IT leaders of prominent firms in Boston. 

THE TOPIC

Cyber Risk as a Business Enabler

Every aspect of every business today has an IT security component – every hiring process, marketing program, product design, business relationship, customer interaction and executive decision. All business activities, in some way, are connected to a computer – and, therefore, to cyber risk. Yet all too often, we as business leaders, think of cyber risk mostly as a means to prevent a breach or to achieve compliance.

Cyber risk could enable entrance into new markets, innovative products to be released quickly to market, and intuitive tools for your workforce to work anywhere to collaborate and make decisions. If we alter the way we look at cyber risk, change the way we talk about it and tie it directly to the business, cyber risk could enable and differentiate the business.

We will be discussing:

  • Can cyber risk enable a business to grow and innovate?
  • How do business leaders change the discussion about cyber risk?
  • Can you connect cyber risk to business goals and measure performance?
  • What do you need to do to empower your organization to change?
