In this webinar from Women in CyberSecurity (WiCyS) and the Security Industry Association (SIA), cybersecurity consultants Min Kyriannis (Jaros, Baum & Bolles) and Valerie Thomas (Securicon) will explore the important relationship between cybersecurity and physical security.

Drawing lessons from real-world threats and attacks, our speakers will look at how cybersecurity vulnerabilities can be used to compromise physical security systems and why cybersecurity of IT systems depends on controlling physical security. We’ll discuss why CSOs, IT leaders, cybersecurity professionals and vendors/service providers all need to be paying attention to the cybersecurity of physical systems, and we’ll discuss what it means to drive security convergence at both strategic and operational levels, and how new technologies like AI factor into today’s converged security models.

Key Focuses:
•How to evaluate and improve the cybersecurity of cyber-physical systems
•How threat actors are targeting cyber weaknesses in physical security systems
•Why security convergence matters and what the relationship between cybersecurity and physical security teams can look like
•How new technologies like AI are evolving security

Key Topics: Cybersecurity, Physical security, Security convergence, Hacking, Hackers, cyber-physical systems, Security management

The terms security and cyber (short for cybersecurity) are often used interchangeably, referring to the profession narrowly defined as a team of professionals who leverage technologies and processes to defend an organization’s systems and networks from attack. However, this narrow use of security sells the field short – there are in fact a number of key functions under the security umbrella, one of which is cybersecurity, all of which are essential to the success of the organization. Some such functions are: physical security, fraud prevention, privacy, business continuity, disaster recovery, and risk management, although there are still more. And though the security field is defined by the technical “hacker” persona, people with backgrounds, skills, and interests of a wide variety have all found success under the umbrella of work in the security field.

Join our webinar to hear from several of Equifax’s women leaders who have come to security from different educational backgrounds, former careers, and interests, but who share a passion for challenging work, career growth, and personal excellence. Learn about their career journeys that led them to security, how they apply their interests and training to their current work and future professional goals, and hear the advice they have for the next generation of women in security. Bring your questions, too, and participate in this lively interactive discussion!

Cybersecurity executives and leaders are not the only cybersecurity experts feeling the pressure to do more with less in the age of the widening cyber skills gap. Cyber security practitioners, already at a disadvantage in the asymmetric battle for the fate of their company’s and customers’ networks, have much to teach the rest of us about how organizations can overcome the shortfall.

Join Danny Slack, Senior Manager for FireEye Managed Defense, as he talks about stories and strategies from the cyber defender’s perspective.

When was the last time you did something new for the first time? Your career growth requires you to be intentional. In this presentation, you'll gain insights on ways you, as a female in cybersecurity, can hack your way into a successful cyber career.

Oftentimes when it comes to celebrating women in technology, we hear a lot about individual change-makers and one person's astonishing journey up the corporate ladder. However, what we hear about much less frequently is peer-to-peer support and guidance.

How are female leaders in hi-tech careers growing both their teams and their company's product? How do women in different business functions successfully build out high-performing diverse teams, get products to market, and drive revenue?

Tune into this live panel discussion with experts across industries, fields and backgrounds for an in-depth, peer-to-peer fireside chat to answer these questions and more. Learn how we can better support and enable one another to be successful women leaders, from creation, to ideation, to innovation and beyond.

Innovation has quickly become an overused and distorted word. At Money20/20 Europe expect to cut through the hype, explore what measurements we can use to benchmark innovation and get to the heart of sustainable and commercial step change. A key question which has moved back up the C-Level agenda of established; banks, tech companies and payments companies is:

"How can incumbents deliver meaningful game-changing innovation?"

There are three options available for incumbents, and at Money20/20 Europe we’ll be developing deeper into each one:

1. Can organisations transform their cultures to execute true innovation internally within their organisations? (cultural transformation)

2. Perhaps tech transformation is the way forward, partnering or acquisitions to do so?

3. Or do they need to achieve business model transformation by building something entirely new outside of the organisation?

These options are being heavily debated in boardrooms throughout Europe, with a number of high profile banks recently announcing plans to build brand new subsidiaries. Some of the traditional banks, payments and tech companies are pursuing a few or all of the options while others are sitting on the fence. Which is most effective and why? What are the dynamics at play that determine success for different types of companies? Hear from the leading companies in our industry as they share their incisive insight on the successes but also the failures and the lessons learned.
