European CISOs face a growing strategic dilemma: balancing digital sovereignty ambitions with unavoidable dependencies on global technology providers, while managing increasingly complex and fragmented security environments. In the premiere episode of our new webinar series The CISO Perspective, we explore how platform-based approaches, zero trust principles, and stronger vendor risk management can reduce tool sprawl and enable more resilient, compliant security architectures.
Berthold Kerl, CEO at KuppingerCole will explore the evolving definition of digital sovereignty, outline key challenges CISOs face in balancing autonomy with dependency, and provide strategic guidance on reducing tool sprawl while strengthening resilience in complex IT environments.
Hinrich Völcker, CSO at Deutsche Börse Group will share real-world insights into managing security in a highly regulated environment, discuss practical approaches to handling vendor dependencies, and highlight strategies for building efficient, scalable, and sovereign-aligned security architectures.
Who Should Attend
This webinar is designed for CISOs, security architects, and IT decision-makers navigating regulatory, operational, and strategic security challenges in Europe. It is particularly relevant for professionals seeking to align security strategy with sovereignty and resilience goals.
