Subtle Ransomware Tactics, More Regulation on the Horizon for Security Leaders
The “C” in CISO is rising in prominence.
For years, CISOs have dealt with increased complexity in their environments, more data and evolving threat tactics. But as organizations realize the financial and business impact of a cyberattack, CISOs are stepping into the spotlight in the boardroom and learning to navigate the new business relationships that accompany it.
At .conf23 in Las Vegas, Splunk’s Kirsty Paine, Field CTO & Strategic Advisor, Technology and Innovation (EMEA) and Ryan Kovar, Distinguished Security Strategist and SURGe Founder, sat down with analysts Daniel Newman and Patrick Moorhead from the Six Five to share what they’ve learned from CISOs. Ransomware will always keep CISOs up at night, but added to the list of concerns is how generative AI will handle organizations’ data and what new regulatory demands are on the horizon. Paine and Kovar also share how the smartest CISOs are using incentives to nail down the basics of cybersecurity hygiene.
