Segment One

Transforming Cyber Risk/Compliance Through Automation – Padraic O’Reilly – BSW #200

How are CISOs of the Global 500 automating risk and compliance assessments by 90%, saving millions of dollars per year, and creating a unified strategy around cyber risk in the wake of Digital Transformation? Those on the cutting-edge of risk and compliance see a massive opportunity to ingest the telemetry coming from the security tech stack to bring a new level of automation to control compliance and risk management across all frameworks and standards.

In this segment, we discuss how COVID-19 and rapid Digitalization have pushed risk and compliance teams to innovate internally, and how they’re doing so with real-life examples. How is it even possible to eliminate nearly all manual effort around IT GRC? What is the latest strategy behind cross-walking frameworks and dynamically lighting up controls in an environment?

You’ll learn how some of the largest organizations in the world are proving compliance in real-time, empowering their teams to manage even the most unprecedented risks, and how risk and compliance programs get a clear view into risk likelihood, impact, solution-cost modeling and more. Listen in if you too are working to transform your cyber risk and compliance program to support Digital Transformation.
