These unprecedented times may usher in a new world for cybersecurity and risk professionals, but are they ready? With many organizations anticipating full-time remote work and acceleration of digital initiatives, CISOs are increasingly being asked to adapt to the speed of business and demonstrate value to the organization. How can security and risk leaders adapt to the new normal? What changes must they make to their programs? How can security enable the business to succeed—moving beyond the "cost center" mindset?

Join this discussion, which will explore the changing role of the security professional, the rise of quantitative measurement and metrics, and how you should be thinking about your program and relationships with executives in the months and years ahead.
