Security vs. Operations – Balancing the Risk - Ross Leo - CSP #114
The role of CISO is one filled with challenges and decisions. Frequently, a CISO is faced with having to decide in compromise with Operations, in favor of Operations. This can be a very difficult and risky choice to make - but the ideal of having both get 100% of what they want, or need is not realistic. How to do this? In this session, we discuss how to analyze both POV, both sets of requirements and issues and reach optimal decisions that, hopefully, achieves a balance between these without amplifying risk.

Business Ethics and the CISO - Troy Stairwalt - CSP #111
As risk practitioners CISOs make risk vs reward decisions on a daily and sometimes hour by hour basis. As a profession we must understand our organizations risk tolerance and appetite as well as our own. Regulations are lagging indicators. SOX was established as a direct response to unethical behavior. Unfortunately, regulations in cybersecurity and data privacy are also "lagging indicators" that organizations "left to their own device" have failed to allocate sufficient reasonable cost-effective resources to mitigate the significant risk in prudent ways that place the organization in a position to demonstrate both due diligence and due care in a worst case scenario. CISOs must: 1 Understand your organizations risk tolerance and appetite 2 Know your own risk tolerance and appetite as well as your personal code of conduct and ethics. 3 Build and maintain your "rainy day", emergency or as my more colorful colleagues refer, FU funds. 4 Find your calm, peace and happiness. These days, mine is Yoga and Meditation What is yours? 5 To avoid stressful days and sleepless nights, maintain our integrity and sense of humor!
