SUMMARY:Confessions of a CISO: What we wish lawyers knew
DESCRIPTION:Cybersecurity leaders face relentless threats\, sleepless nights\, and boardroom pressure. Yet one challenge keeps resurfacing: the gap between CISOs and their lawyers. Legal teams are guardians of privilege and compliance\, but too often\, they lack visibility into the realities of defending an organisation against daily cyberattacks. \nThis candid panel brings together four leading global CISOs to share what they most wish their legal teams understood. Expect practical\, unfiltered insights from the frontlines of security — from navigating breach response under impossible deadlines\, to negotiating contracts that actually reduce risk\, to balancing regulatory obligations with operational reality. \nWhat you’ll learn\n\nThe biggest misconceptions lawyers have about cybersecurity\nHow legal teams can be allies (not obstacles) in incident response\nWhy contract negotiations so often frustrate CISOs — and how to fix it\nWhere evolving regulations clash with the realities of cyber defence\nThe single most valuable skill lawyers can develop to support CISOs\n\nWho should attend\n\nLawyers in private practice advising on data\, contracts\, or compliance\nIn-house legal and compliance teams working with CISOs and CIOs\nRisk\, governance\, and executive leaders navigating legal–cyber alignment\nAnyone curious about how law and cybersecurity intersect in practice\n\n\nJoin us for this unique conversation that cuts through jargon and reveals the truths CISOs rarely say out loud\, but wish their lawyers knew.

SUMMARY:Joint Standard 2 of 2024: A private implementation dialogue for CISOs
DESCRIPTION:Africa’s financial sector stands at the threshold of a new era in operational resilience. With the release of Joint Standard 2 of 2024\, CISOs are now at the forefront of shaping how institutions prepare for\, respond to\, and recover from ICT disruptions and cyber incidents. \nThis closed-door virtual roundtable brings together CISOs from Africa’s leading financial institutions for an off-the-record\, Chatham House Rule discussion focused on the practical implementation of Joint Standard 2. No panels. No presentations. No AI. Just real-time intelligence sharing among peers facing similar challenges. \nWe’ll explore: \n\nInterpreting key implementation obligations in a way that aligns with your current frameworks\nWhere the standard goes beyond existing expectations—and how to prioritise\nHow others are managing board reporting\, resourcing\, and inter-departmental collaboration\nLessons from global operational resilience standards—and what not to do\n\nSeats are limited to 10 CISOs to ensure candour and clarity. Once capacity is reached\, we will not be able to accommodate additional participants. No recordings will be made\, and no media will be present. \nThis session is hosted by ITLawCo and facilitated by Nathan-Ross Adams\, one of the continent’s leading voices on AI\, cybersecurity governance\, and regulatory compliance. \nIf you’re a CISO at a financial institution and would like to attend\, email support@itlawco.com with the subject line “CISO JS2 2024”. In the body of the mail\, provide a short bio and your answer to this riddle:\n“I protect but do not fight\,\nI’m tested day and night.\nI’m only as strong as the weakest part\,\nYet I’m built with both science and art.\nWhat am I?”

SUMMARY:Addressing Africa’s cybersecurity skills shortage through platformisation
DESCRIPTION:In 2023\, ISC2’s workforce study highlighted a global shortage of approximately 4 million cybersecurity professionals. Africa\, too\, faces a severe cybersecurity skills gap\, with an estimated shortfall of 112\,000 professionals. \nThis deficit leads to increased workloads\, higher risks for organisations\, and burnout among current staff. Despite ongoing training initiatives\, the rate at which new professionals are developed falls short of the growing demand. \nThe challenge\nThis skills shortage poses a significant challenge for organisations striving to secure their digital assets. This challenge is made worse by Africa’s rating as a prime destination for cyber attacks. Further\, the time and resources required to find\, train\, and retain qualified employees necessitate exploring alternative solutions. \nTable talk focus\nThis table talk explores platformisation as a strategic approach to address the cybersecurity skills shortage. Participants will learn how platformisation and managed services can streamline processes\, optimise resource utilisation\, and enhance overall cybersecurity effectiveness. \nOutcomes\nBy the end of the table talk\, attendees will: \n\nGain an understanding of the cybersecurity skills shortage and its implications.\nAcquire knowledge of platformisation and its potential to mitigate the skills gap.\nDevelop actionable strategies for implementing platformisation within their organisations.\nLearn how to leverage managed services to complement their cybersecurity efforts.\nNetwork with industry experts and peers to share insights and best practices.\n\nTarget audience\n\nIT leaders: Individuals responsible for managing and implementing cybersecurity measures within their organisations.\nHR leaders: HR specialists focused on recruiting\, training\, and retaining cybersecurity talent.\nBusiness leaders and decision-makers: Executives and managers tasked with overseeing cybersecurity strategies and investments.\nCIOs and CTOs: Chief Information Officers and Chief Technology Officers looking to enhance their organisation’s cybersecurity posture.\nSecurity analysts and engineers: Professionals involved in the day-to-day operations of cybersecurity.\nAcademics and researchers: Individuals researching cybersecurity trends\, skills shortages\, and solutions.\nPolicy makers and regulators: Government officials and regulators interested in addressing the cybersecurity skills gap at a national or regional level.\n\nPanel\n\nEngen & ISC2: Grant Hughes\, leading
