Expert Focus at Ballroom

AMA (ask me anything) around security metrics

FORMAT: Expert Focus

THEME: Cyber Resilience

VENUE: Ballroom

There’s no objective standard for choosing the right set of cybersecurity KPIs and KRIs. Your choice of metrics depends on your industry, security needs, regulations, guidelines, best practices, and ultimately, you and your customer’s appetite for risk. Cybersecurity reporting, metrics and dashboards not only assist your organization in understanding its risk posture, they also help to make more information decisions as you prepare for the unknown of tomorrow.

In this session, “AMA (ask me anything) around security metrics”, is your opportunity to ask those leaders to share their insights.
