Cybersecurity Council
A curated network of senior CISOs and CSOs at large European enterprises. Members meet confidentially, free of vendors and free of sales agendas, to compare notes on the challenges that do not make it into press releases.
What the Council Does
The Council focuses on how organizations protect digital identities, data, intellectual property, infrastructure, and processes as business operations become more interconnected and more exposed to cyber risk. Members examine what is working, what is not, and where current approaches fall short. Not just best practices, but the gaps in them.
The room is made up of senior security leaders, predominantly Group CISO or CSO level from different industries, chosen for their ability to compare notes across sectors that do not normally talk to each other.
