GRC Automation and CISO Panel

GRC Automation and CISO Panel
September 15, 2010
5:00 pm - 8:00 pm

In the first session we will learn how companies with continuous control automation and monitoring, move into the next generation where efficiency and effectiveness of their controls systems become the focus.  Efforts are still streamlined through regulation mappings to policies and the connected controls that ensure adherence. However, by establishing the baseline, the focus can now shift to measurement of the increased ROI of new initiatives, increased process efficiencies and control effectiveness. Sustainable and repeatable processes increase data and control quality, and real-time information on assets prevents loss through proactive remediation or mitigation of control violations.  Finally, centralizing the controls management approach provides greater visibility into the effectiveness of existing disparate controls systems.

This will be followed by a moderated CISO panel on the state of information security, cloud computing, mobility, advanced threats of malicious software and more.
