EXECUTIVE BRIEFING: Systems of Experience – The Role of the CIO in Shaping the Future of Work
Ken Zeng, AVP, GTM Product Marketing, RingCentral
The role of the CIO is now front and center to defining the digital culture of an organization with a mega-trend at play that I like to call, ‘Systems of Experience.’ The CIOs future of work and the CIOs role in changing the digital culture of the company is starting to focus on the systems of experience, which is driven by customers engaging with companies and brands through various mediums of technology or employees doing their work and thinking about their engagement with the digital assets at work. During this session, I will focus on the role of the CIO amidst this shifting tide and what it takes to create a digital culture to support the future of work.

HMG Lead, Reimagine, Reinvent Interview: What's Missing From Cloud Security
Nabil Zoldjalali, Director of Cloud Security, Darktrace, interviewed by Hunter Muller, President and CEO, HMG Strategy, LLC
As Cloud Service Providers continue to bolster their cyber defenses, sophisticated criminals are increasingly targeting the weak link in the cloud’s Shared Responsibility Model: you. In fact, Gartner estimates that at least 99% of cloud security failures will have occurred on the customer’s portion of this model by 2023 — the result of insider threats that legacy tools aren’t designed to detect and machine-speed attacks that incident responders can’t contain.
The latest cyber AI systems employ a fundamentally unique approach to safeguard today’s borderless networks, one that defends multi-cloud and hybrid infrastructures in real time. Unlike conventional security tools that look only for known malware variants at the perimeter, cyber AI works by self-learning what constitutes normal behavior for each user, device, and container it protects, monitoring the entire digital estate to catch the subtly anomalous behavior indicative of both novel and insider threats. Most critically, cyber AI response capabilities can now autonomously neutralize cloud-based attacks in seconds — before it’s too late. Such attacks have unfortunately become a fact of life for today’s cities and companies, but with cyber AI, data stored in the cloud can weather the storm.
In this session, you will learn:
- How cyber AI response tools neutralize cloud attacks that strike at machine speed
- Where criminals are exploiting key blind spots on modern, borderless networks
- Why only the AI anomaly detection approach can catch cloud-based insider threats
- What gaining 100% visibility across your virtual environments, third-party clouds, and hybrid deployments can reveal about your latent vulnerabilities

EXECUTIVE BRIEFING: Digital Workplace: It's About Culture, People and Technology
Gary Sorrentino, CIO Advisor, Global CIO Office, Zoom
When culture, people and technology come together seamlessly - real results follow. The world of work is changing and we've already started to glimpse the future workplace, and it's not a place or a building or a cubicle. The difference today between high performing organizations and those that are seeking to become high performers is a willingness to embrace employee values, empower people to work the way that they want to work and support this with enabling technology.
