Workshop 3: Overcoming CISO challenges in Cybersecurity Introduced & Chaired by: Zeus Kerravala, Founder and Principal Analyst, ZK Research, Co-chair: Prof. Martin Curley, Chair of UN Digital Health Symposium Businesses are having to meet this rising tide of threat by changing the way they approach cybersecurity. The CISO is no longer looking out for best-of-breed point solutions that protect one area of the business, leaving loopholes that bad actors can exploit. What they are demanding is a more integrated approach based around Zero Trust principles, designed for an age of cloud, IoT and mobile working.
