As we see every day, breaches are an escalating problem despite the increased global investment and effort that have not slowed them down. Attacks like ransomware have been a bigger problem now than ever before. It’s interesting because every year, for many years now, more dollars have been spent, more controls and buzzwords have been deployed, and more effort has been thrown at it. However, we’re not seeing the outcome that organizations are more secure, we are not seeing security effectiveness being the outcome of that investment and effort.

(Security Investment + Security Effort ≠ Security Effectiveness)

This session will focus on discussing a reliable way of validating the cybersecurity capabilities in the organization, an effective way of validating the cybersecurity visibility, monitoring, detection, prevention, response capabilities. Also, how validation can help organization to:

• Perform security framework assessment.
• Do security technologies evaluation.
• Rationalize spending.
• Operationalize Threat Intelligence.
