Jim Clapper had a distinguished career in the US military and in the US intelligence community, including serving as the Director of National Intelligence (DNI). In this fireside chat he and his former lead for cyber intelligence will discuss topics such as malicious cyber activity, the relative strengths and weaknesses of government and the private sector in understanding cyber threat, observations on effective crisis management, and questions posed by the audience.

With the explosion of digital transformation, AI, cloud, and technology convergence, organizations can expand their businesses further than ever before. However, it can all come crashing down with a single breach. Having a better understanding of the threats and best practices allows organizations to respond and implement better cybersecurity. This session will feature customers and partners with their perspectives on the latest trends in IT and security and what organizations can do to prepare for 2024 and beyond.

Solving cybersecurity challenges together is good for business and good for the world. Within all parts of an organization, in partnership with vendors, and between peer organizations, we're all in this together. As bad actors get more cunning, skilled and innovative, we don't have to climb alone. It's too big a challenge on our own. Trust each other to help and keep people and business secure.

We are in the big data era. Amazon, Facebook, and Google own the data every consumer company needs to reach the right customers. Retailers and small brands are hugely disadvantaged. Individuals do not own their personal data. Governments are getting involved with new and onerous regulations. Lean back advertising is giving way to online engagement. Fewer employees are coming into the office or classroom. How do business leaders manage in this crazy and fast changing world?

As a multinational automobile manufacturer, Nissan is driven to innovate. As a technology leader for Nissan Americas, William Orange leverages innovation to address the challenges and requirements for securing industrial operations and corporate systems.

With the growing attack surface and the ever-growing number of significant attacks affecting OT organizations hitting the news nearly daily, accelerating OT resiliency program implementations has become a priority. However, being that it's a new frontier for most organizations, the path forward is commonly unclear and can be daunting for many. In this session, we will discuss best practices for deploying a rapidly enabling and continuously maturing OT-oriented cyber resiliency program at scale.

Industrial organizations are on alert as bad actors see critical infrastructure as low-hanging fruit for attack. Ransomware variants, phishing emails, wiper malware, and more show up as tactics used to disrupt operational environments. As digital transformation grows, so does the number of users, devices, and applications connecting to the network. This increases the number of remote staff accessing critical infrastructure like meters, sensors, and control systems. For many organizations, this positively affects efficiency. It has also increased risk and expanded the attack surface for industrial organizations. During this session, we will look back at the threats impacting IT and OT and look ahead at the tactics on the rise threatening industrial environments.

Many manufacturing organizations have pursued digital transformation to increase efficiency and production. It also results in an increase in connected devices and expanded attack surface. During this fireside chat, Charles Markarian, CISO at PACCAR will share the risks and rewards of securing production environments including governance, policies and third-party suppliers.

As connectivity to the industrial network grows, the number and type of devices– smart sensors, valves, and gauges – expands the attack surface making industrial environments low-hanging fruit for an attack. Cyber-physical systems can be difficult to protect due to the mix of modern and legacy equipment and the growing regulations affecting processes. During this panel, our experts will share their industrial cybersecurity journey - their challenges, ecosystem, and the need to balance people, processes, and technology to mature their security strategy.
