Managing Cyber Risk: The Clear and Present Danger

managing cyber Play

Ensuring the cyber security resilience of the United States is truly a whole-of-society effort. The importance of cyber security for our nation's national security, economic security, and competitiveness is fortunately well understood and documented at this juncture. However, in response to the dramatic changes in the threat landscape, a welcomed and necessary shift has been the increased emphasis on cyber security as a strategic, enterprise-wide risk by senior leaders in organizations, going beyond the realm of I.T. functions.

This panel will discuss cyber security as an enterprise-wide risk issue requiring more than just an I.T. perspective. The panel will outline the impact of cyber risk on an organization, mitigate the risk, and review the critical components of a cyber risk program. 

Moderator: Torben Ostergaard, President and CEO Spinnaker Insurance Company

Panelist: Gary McAlum, Former USAA Senior Vice President and Chief Security Officer
