CISO Initiative Summit
March 10–11, 2027
An evening and a full day designed entirely around the security leaders in the room. Structured peer dialogue under the Chatham House Rule, with no sales presentations. Location to be announced.
Built for security and risk leaders at the top.
While this is the CISO Initiative Summit, the conversation extends well beyond the CISO title. Anyone whose work centers on protecting the organization, managing risk, and advising the business on security strategy belongs in the room.
