As security becomes increasingly embedded into technology, risk, compliance, and business operations, some leaders are asking a provocative question: will organizations still need an independent cybersecurity vertical? In this lively debate, two veteran CISOs will take opposing sides, examining whether security is on the path to becoming an integrated business capability or whether an independent security organization remains essential to managing enterprise risk.

Discussion Themes

• Is security becoming a business capability rather than a standalone function?
• What forces are reshaping the future of the CISO role?
• If security becomes more embedded across the enterprise, what skills and organizational models will define the next generation of security leaders?
