Program content for the CISO Dinner is developed and delivered by the CISO community and the Charlotte Leadership Board.
An Evening With the Community - CISO Dinner Series
For our 2025 CISO Dinner Series, the regional leadership board members prioritized their focus on creating better opportunities to hear practical and relevant stories from their peers. These member-driven dinners feature local security leaders and experts who share insights on key threats, leadership skills, or challenging projects. These interactive presentations are followed by roundtable discussions, where attendees take deep dives into the community-curated theme.
Join us for an exclusive reception celebrating the CyberRisk Collaborative Charlotte CISO community, where security leaders come together for an evening of networking, knowledge-sharing, and camaraderie. Connect with fellow CISOs, security executives, and industry experts in a relaxed atmosphere while discussing the latest challenges and innovations in cybersecurity. Enjoy refreshments, engage in thought-provoking conversations, and strengthen relationships with peers who understand the complexities of protecting today’s digital landscape.
In today’s evolving landscape, no team can prevent every attack from disrupting business operations. True security leadership lies in learning from incidents and using those lessons to enhance an organization’s overall security posture.
Have you ever wondered how early lessons have shaped us as people and leaders? Don't miss this impactful conversation with John Scrimsher that will take you back to the basics and how these life lessons can be applied to cybersecurity. This interactive session will include roundtable discussions on:
- The importance of cooperation and sharing when it comes to strengthening your security team.
- How a well-maintained digital environment ensures security, efficiency, and long-term system health.
- Why we need to foster a culture that inspires curiosity and encourages learning from mistakes rather than punishing people for taking risks.
