Adopting Economic Driven Security

Many if not most companies are stuck in ‘fire, aim, ready’ mode when it comes to their cyber strategies, fighting off incidents as they come in with precious little time to remediate the root cause of the issue.

Leading security functions are now adopting an economic centric view of how they allocate their finite security dollars. Attend this session to learn about the real economic value of information on the ‘dark web,’ how this can inform your security strategy, as well as learn through several case studies how cyber security is having a real impact on business performance of companies, large and small alike.

Key learning points:
  • Comparison of information's economic value on the dark web
  • Learn how cyber is influencing company economics and business performance
  • Tie economic value and business performance to security strategy
