Speaker: Frank Kim, Fellow, SANS Institute Session 2: Security Strategy Framework: Defining Roles, Responsibilities, and Accountability A typical organization has about 73 security jobs spread across security, technology, and business teams. This session will feature a standard that describes what security jobs exist in an organization and how to set up accountability/responsibility effectively. Will also look at some career antipatterns (common mistakes) for business leaders, security leaders, and security practitioners and provide tips for security practitioners, aspiring leaders, and current leaders. Speaker: Mark Simos, Lead Cybersecurity Architect, Microsoft Session 3: Strengthening the Global Financial Sector: Collaborative Approaches to Cybersecurity Threats Cybersecurity is a team sport. So why should you be part of the team? Fostering a corporate culture of collaboration and information sharing is critical – before an incident occurs. Having processes and procedures left of boom matters, especially when trying to make sense of early warnings and consumption of signals that may require proactive measures to shore up cybersecurity defenses. Key topics will include the value proposition of intelligence sharing, pitfalls and pendulums of getting approval to share, trusted communication practices, and strategies for tackling current and emerging threats.
