ISE® EAST PRIVATE WELCOME DINNER
A Shift to Exposure Risk Management for Real Cyber ROI
Many enterprises, despite significant investments, struggle with legacy vulnerability management programs that don't actually mitigate the cyber risk threatening their business. Manual tasks, complex attack surfaces, conflicting priorities, and limited resources often stand in the way of efficient outcomes. By challenging the status quo, security leaders can focus resources, streamline processes, cut costs, significantly reduce risk and improve security posture.
Join us for a vibrant and enlightening evening the night before the ISE® EAST Summit and Awards at the ISE® EAST Welcome Dinner. Together, we'll find easy and innovative ways to transform your exposure and vulnerability risk management efforts to achieve real cyber ROI.
Attendees are eligible to earn 2 CPE for this event.

Biography
Today's modern enterprises face intense internal pressures from executives and boards, coupled with stringent external regulatory demands. These forces require businesses to mitigate cybersecurity threats while maintaining a productive workforce, reducing operating costs, and enhancing profits. Managing thousands of identities and their access to critical applications in constantly evolving environments is crucial in fortifying the attack surface. However, identity and security teams are often overwhelmed by access control and governance challenges. A predominantly manual, human-based approach in isolated systems results in over-provisioning access, leading to non-compliance and increased exposure to risks.
At this invitation-only luncheon, we will delve into how organizations can secure their enterprises and empower their workforce by ensuring least privilege with a unified identity security solution. The discussion will cover strategies to streamline identity management, bolster security, and drive operational efficiency, positioning organizations for sustained success in an increasingly complex landscape.
