LIVE DINNER

Proactive Security for the Evolving Threat Landscape

19th April 2023, New York 18:30 - 21:30 EST
In partnership

Dinner Location: Institute of Culinary Education

Do you have the right ingredients to ensure end-to-end protection against ever-evolving cyber threats? Oh, and can you cook?

A Meet the Boss live dinner discussion and culinary experience brought to you by IBM

The world continues to grapple with ripple effects from the pandemic, shifts to work-from-home and back-to-office, and geopolitical changes spawning a constant drone of mistrust. All this cooks up plenty of chaos, and it is in chaos that cybercriminals thrive. Companies are spending millions just to understand this and keep themselves safe, but many still fall victim.

The reason? They are not continuously monitoring their systems to spot vulnerabilities, but instead relying on point-in-time snapshots that become outdated very quickly in this digital-first age. Our cyber assets are at risk because everything is connected to the internet. Everything and everyone can be targeted. You may be at risk, but you are not defenseless.

Over the course of this evening, we will explore the current threat environment, one bite at a time. As you navigate your culinary skills, you’ll also hear how your peers are using different tools and methodologies to quantify risk effectively and confidently in this ever-evolving landscape.

We hope to see you in New York!
