      In this executive panel, security leaders and industry executives will share their insights on different ways that the role of the CISO has evolved, why cybersecurity strategies need to be transformed, along with the types of skills needed by modern-day cyber professionals to defend the organization on a go-forward basis.

      As businesses continue to invest in digital to drive outcomes, CISOs are increasingly playing a central role in building trust with users, both internal and external, through innovative security strategies that enhance protection without sacrificing experience. But in a borderless digital world with a rapidly evolving threat landscape, how can CISOs overcome organizational and resource challenges to secure that trust? CISOs need to find the common ground that fosters stakeholder collaboration alongside innovation. In the case of building trust with users, it all starts with identity.

      Join this conversation as Hunter Muller, President & CEO, HMG Strategy interviews Aubrey Turney, Executive Advisor from Ping Identity, as he provides his perspective on how CISOs can use identity to establish collaboration across the enterprise to develop and execute innovative security strategies that build trust with every user.

By allowing ops teams to automate, monitor, and manage mission-critical business processes with no-code, while still maintaining compliance and security, Tonkean enables enterprises to accelerate operational velocity at scale. The Tonkean platform makes automating complex business processes simple and accessible to non-developers, such as business operations teams and process owners, by abstracting the high technical barrier and coding expertise needed to deliver robust, enterprise-grade process solutions via composability. Ops teams compose custom process solutions using building blocks called “enterprise components” or ECs. ECs are modular, interchangeable, and reusable capabilities that perform actions or complete steps in a business process. ECs are fully governed and curated, typically by IT. They can be adopted from vendors or custom built, or they can simply be extensions of existing tools and systems. This allows ops and process experts to rapidly build holistic process solutions that can work with different systems, easily adapt to changing needs, and measure cross-functional KPIs–all with no-code and no change management. Enterprises like Google, EVERSANA, Instacart, Grubhub, Crypto.com, and more rely on Tonkean to optimize and align their operations across functions—including sales, marketing, customer support, legal, finance, and more.

        Zscaler, the only zero trust platform that securely connects any user, any device, and any app over any network.

But those days are over, the perimeter is gone, and network security is all but irrelevant. Instead, you need to put your defenses and controls where the connections occur— the internet — so that every connection is fast and secure, no matter how or where users connect or where their applications reside. By moving applications and infrastructure to the cloud and untethering employees from their desks, you can realize tremendous advantages in productivity, agility, and cost containment. With our 100% cloud built secure platform, Zscaler can help you make the move to the cloud, securely.
