In today’s highly regulatory environment it is essential that you have a clear understanding of risk across the enterprise. A risk management framework can bring visibility to key business and compliance risks and enable a company to make decisions on where to prioritize its limited resources. It is through a risk management framework that real value to the business can be achieved.

CONFERENCE AGENDA

8:00am – 9:00am: Registration and Continental Breakfast

9:00am – 9:50am: Enterprise Risk in 2026: From Regulatory Pressure to Strategic Risk Leadership

In a climate where regulatory frameworks, business continuity demands, and emerging technologies collide, enterprise risk leaders must evolve beyond compliance checklists to strategic enablers of business resilience. This session will examine the latest risk management frameworks, integration of risk appetite metrics into board reporting, and ways to make risk a strategic advantage. We’ll contrast traditional ERM practices with modern risk intelligence strategies that align enterprise risk with business outcomes.

9:50am – 10:20am: Refreshment Break

10:20am – 11:10am: AI-Driven Risk & Security: Governing Innovation Without Slowing the Business

AI adoption is accelerating faster than most risk frameworks can adapt. This session focuses on identifying and managing AI-specific risks — including generative AI misuse, autonomous decision-making, data exposure, and regulatory uncertainty. Learn how organizations are building AI governance models, managing shadow AI risk, and embedding AI risk controls without stifling innovation.

11:10am – 12:00pm: CISO Roundtable: The Top Strategic Risks CISOs Are Prioritizing in 2026

Senior CISOs discuss the most pressing enterprise risk challenges shaping their 2026 roadmaps. Topics include board-level risk reporting, identity and cloud exposure, regulatory pressure, talent constraints, and aligning cyber risk with enterprise risk management. Panelists will share candid insights on what’s keeping them up at night — and how they are reframing risk as a business issue, not just a security problem.

12:00pm – 12:40pm: Lunch and Exhibit Break

12:40pm – 1:30pm: Risk Quantification That Executives Actually Use

Security leaders are increasingly expected to quantify risk in financial and operational terms. This session explores practical approaches to cyber risk quantification, including scenario-based modeling, risk scoring, and financial impact analysis. Attendees will learn how to move beyond heat maps and develop metrics that resonate with executives and boards, enabling smarter investment and prioritization decisions.

1:30pm – 2:20pm: Identity Is the New Enterprise Risk Perimeter

As enterprises embrace Zero Trust, identity has become the most targeted attack surface. This session addresses identity-centric risk management, including privileged access, non-human identities, AI agents, and SaaS sprawl. Learn how organizations are reducing identity exposure, improving visibility, and integrating identity risk into broader enterprise risk frameworks.

2:20pm – 2:50pm: Refreshment Break

2:50pm – 3:40pm: Emerging Threat Vectors: What CISOs Are Preparing for Next (CISO Panel)

Threat actors are evolving rapidly — leveraging automation, AI, supply-chain compromise, and insider exploitation. In this forward-looking panel, CISOs discuss emerging threat vectors and how they are adapting enterprise risk strategies to stay ahead. Panelists will share lessons learned, risk prioritization strategies, and how they balance prevention, detection, and resilience.

4:10pm– 5:00pm: Incident to Resilience: Operationalizing Risk Response

True risk management extends beyond prevention to include response, recovery, and learning. This session focuses on integrating incident response, crisis management, and business continuity into enterprise risk planning. Attendees will gain practical guidance on tabletop exercises, executive communication during incidents, post-incident analysis, and using risk insights to strengthen long-term organizational resilience.

Conference Price: $349.00 per person

Each attendee will receive a certificate awarding 7 CPE credits for CISSP continuing education, in addition to 0.7 CEUs and 7 PDUs. CISSP is a registered certification mark of (ISC)², Inc.
