THE FUTURE OF SECURITY

In a hyper-connected world, the health of the digital economy depends more than ever on the security tactics & strategies that protect our networks. Structure Security will highlight the best practices that security professionals are using to protect some of the world's largest companies & institutions, & examine the future of security products, services, & the threats that aim to take them down.

Technology companies have created a digital revolution through the sheer pace of their innovation. CIOs & business leaders in every industry are adopting digital technology at breakneck speed & transforming their companies; no industry has been left untouched. But the benefits of this digital world have been offset by increased risks from all manner of sophisticated adversaries who find new vulnerabilities to exploit as quickly as old flaws are addressed. That means CISOs are struggling to keep up with the threats as the security industry itself responds with an increasing - & often confusing - array of products & services.

Structure Security is the first & only conference to bring all of these constituencies together. You'll hear how technology companies are working to build security into game-changing products that businesses have come to rely on, such as the public cloud, virtual machines & containers, & the internet of things. You'll also listen to CIOs explain how they consider the adoption of these business-changing technologies, as they make clear which features & services security vendors need to provide in order to get on their radar & simplify their lives. CISOs will describe the strategies they are adopting to keep up with both threats & the growth of their own products, including how & why they select security technologies, how they overcome the shortage of qualified personnel & how they cope with the lack of knowledge & understanding from their bosses. And finally, hear from some of the most innovative security companies about how they make digital technologies more secure, replace obsolete controls, enhance existing controls & improve the cost effectiveness of security operations centers.

Who is this conference for?

Structure Security is the gathering place for information security professionals, tech industry leaders, business executives, security vendors & investors to discuss the importance of security as part of the ever increasing reliance on technology in our digital world.

What are the most important themes you'll discuss at the conference?

Security in the Cloud: The migration of critical business functions & applications to the cloud has changed the way companies think about security risks & operations. Learn how leading organizations think about security as part of their cloud computing strategy.
Think Like a Hacker: Learn how the success of your technology & cybersecurity strategies can be radically improved by understanding how attackers think & operate.
Social Engineering: Hear how leading organizations work to mitigate the security risks caused by social engineering & human error. And learn how to prepare for the future as this challenge continues to evolve with the adoption of new technologies.
Minimum Viable Product = Most Vulnerable Product: Even if Facebook itself has moved on from this ethos, its Move Fast & Break Things culture was the mantra for a new generation of technology startups. Hear how leading technology executives have successfully enabled their teams to remain as agile as startups without sacrificing the security of the applications they create.
Securing the Government: How do government organizations secure their technology infrastructure? What role should the government play in helping the private sector secure our technology infrastructure?
Internet of (vulnerable) Things: The rapid adoption of IoT for both industrial & consumer applications has created a massive new attack surface & significant risks for IoT adopters. How do IoT vendors & companies embracing IoT deal with the security challenges created by this explosion of connected devices?
Evaluating Security Solutions: The days of spreading FUD (fear, uncertainty & doubt) to sell security products are quickly fading away. Leading CISOs have a strong vision for how their teams should evaluate their existing vendors & new solutions. Hear some of these leaders share their vision & approach, & hear from security vendors who are leading the way helping these CISOs & their organizations succeed.

Why should I attend?

Your business is increasingly dependent on technology, & that means it faces the increasing risk of disruptive security breaches that have the potential to inflict significant harm on the future health of your company. Experts across the various constituencies that play a critical role in the ongoing success & health of our digital world will explain at Structure Security how your organization can take advantage of the experience & insights that these experts have developed within their own companies.

Hear how technology companies are working to build security into products from virtual environments, to the cloud to IoT. Hear the concerns of CIO's & Business Leaders as they consider the adoption of these business changing technologies including their expectations from vendors & their risk mitigation strategies. Hear from CISO's about the strategies they are adopting to keep up, including how & why they select technologies, how they overcome the shortage of qualified personnel & how they cope with the lack of knowledge & understanding across the C-suite & Boards of Directors. And finally, hear from some of the most innovative security companies about how they make digital technologies more secure, replace obsolete controls, add leverage to existing controls & improve the cost effectiveness of Security Operations Centers (SOCS).

Who do you expect to attend the conference?

Structure Security will be attended by a mix of C-suite executives, technology & product VPs, CISOs & CSOs, CIOs, security vendors, technology investors, press & industry analysts.

Structure conferences draw C-level & VP executives from companies ranging from small startups to Fortune 500 companies. The conferences are also a strong fit for any professional with a particular focus on the topics covered at Structure events. While the conferences regularly feature leading technology executives & some sessions can be technical in nature, the main focus of these events is to explore & discuss major industry trends & changes while exposing groundbreaking insights & forward-looking views on the future of technology & its continued impact on business, industry, government & consumers.
