Date & Time

Speakers
Description
Traditional approaches to cyber risk often focus on likelihood and impact in isolation, leaving many CISOs struggling to connect risk metrics to real-world threats. By reframing risk through a threat-centric lens, security leaders can ground their strategies in the scenarios most likely to disrupt the business. This shift raises critical questions around how to identify top threats, quantify their potential impact, and communicate that risk effectively to executive leadership and the board.
Discussion Focus:
- Approaches for identifying and prioritizing the most relevant threats without a fully mature threat intelligence functionÂ
- Methods for quantifying risk based on threat scenarios, and where common models fall shortÂ
- Strategies for translating threat-driven risk into clear, actionable insights for boards and executive stakeholders
