The world of cybersecurity expands and gets more complex every day, and the number and variety of roles for security professionals is extensive. One of the most visible and highly sought after positions is the senior security leader or Chief Information Security Officer (CISO). The CISO has many responsibilities, and their job isn’t always consistently outlined but it is always critical. This panel discussion will shed light on what goes on daily as a security leader, and also cover some of the interesting or not so interesting parts of their job.
