Rapid7 Roundtable

*Chatham House Rules*

At a time of heightened cyber sensitivity, every security leader needs to be   
prepared for those three words from their CEO - “Are we safe?”

But what exactly is safe? Your ability to protect your organisation depends on   
many factors, including your processes, organisational security culture, the   
availability of skilled teams and tools, and importantly, defined cyber-security   
metrics. Join us as we discuss this and more in an executive roundtable.

- Knowing the unknown: Implementing cyber security assessments that  
  provide greater visibility into vulnerabilities and threats, as well as the  
  cyber culture in your organisation.
- Seeing the wood from the trees: The quantification of cyber threats for  
  better prioritisation can be fraught with challenges. How do you interpret  
  data to understand what’s relevant to your organisation to help prioritise  
  your resources?
- The human touch: It’s all well being technically proficient, but security  
  leaders need to communicate up and across the business. How do you  
  translate cyber security into a language people understand and that aligns  
  with organisational goals?
