Stop Talking Nerdy to Me: Translating the Value Proposition of the Blue Team to the C-Suite

Written by SecureWorld News Team | 11 PM Z

Last year, Jake Williams gave this talk at BlueTeamCon to a packed house. Unfortunately, it wasn't recorded and somehow we still haven't fixed that. Well, wait no more folks!

There is no shortage of C-Suite executives that don't understand why there is any need for a Blue Team. After all, isn't the Blue Team "just" cyber defense? Obviously, you know better, but how do you communicate that to the C-Suite? Unfortunately, this is easier said than done. The C-Suite needs to understand value proposition, but they can only do that when we stop talking like a bunch of geeks. We must be business bilingual.

In this webcast, Jake will share his battle-tested methods for explaining Blue Team topics to executives. Whether you need to explain why you need that new EDR or justify more retention for the SIEM, this talk is for you.
