TEC37 Security Series E02: A Holistic Approach to Cybersecurity

Event Overview

We are bringing back some of our favorite TEC37 episodes! In this TEC37 encore, we explore how CISOs can scale cybersecurity across the enterprise as security becomes increasingly tied to business success. Too often, the expense and damage to reputation that occurs after a sophisticated cyber attack can cause businesses irreparable harm. CISOs find themselves stuck between trying to secure new technology that will give their organization a competitive edge and protecting their legacy IT infrastructure and systems. Success requires an approach to cybersecurity that considers the business, architecture and operations. Join host Robb Boyd as he speaks with WWT's Geoff Hancock – Global Director of Cybersecurity Engineering, Warren Perils — Security Practice Manager for Global Service Provider and Comcast’s Shena Tharnish — VP of Cybersecurity Products. They’ll discuss steps organizations can take to implement holistic cybersecurity.
