While digital transformation fuels the focus for investment, information security is evolving faster than ever before. The workforce is becoming more tech savvy, new and disruptive technologies are reaching maturity, rapid growth in cloud adoption as well as increased 3rd party vendor relationships; the modern CISO must be a business leader, enabler and partner to the enterprise.
In addition to the ever changing issues around governance and compliance, organisations are falling victim to increasingly sophisticated threat campaigns. It has become a balancing act for CISOs today to protect data and manage vulnerability whilst under unprecedented scrutiny to overcome regulation; what systems to use and what resource to allocate without detriment or burden to the other.

The UK Information Security Network enables CISOs, from the largest organisations in the UK, to discuss their current challenges, collaborate and share their experiences to maximise their security defence.
Hackers are showing no sign of retreat and are beginning to use AI and machine learning to outsmart defence systems. Whilst legacy systems are still in place in many organisations and others moving whole systems and networks to the cloud – hackers can take advantage of weak points in the structure and gain access with ransomware remaining a common threat. Phishing attacks are becoming increasingly sophisticated and there are still stories published regularly about Executives falling into the trap. Not only are CISOs having to monitor the insider threat but they are also still struggling with a skills gap in the industry with limited qualified professionals in the workforce.
However, it is not all doom and gloom for CISOs – awareness is increasing at board level about the importance of investing in security which is leading to profound change and transformation within the industry and it is more important than ever for CISOs to share experiences and solutions to these growing threats.
