The Executive Roundtables Experience

About Roundtables

ISMG’s Executive Roundtables focus on specific challenges being faced by information security executives in today’s cybersecurity landscape. Moderated by one of ISMG’s executive editors and a guest industry expert, these discussions give cybersecurity professionals the opportunity to discuss threats and controls with a handful of market leaders in an informal and private Chatham House Rule setting

Why Attend

Meet your executive peers to navigate the current threat trends, security challenges and latest technologies in a private closed-door environment.

Our events are:

  • Peer-driven and pitch-free
  • An excellent networking opportunity
  • A chance to educate and be educated

*OUR EVENTS OFFER CONTINUING EDUCATION CREDITS*

Who Attends

Our Executive Roundtables are designed for senior IT and information security executives that deal with security/technology daily – from directors all the way up to the CISO. By maintaining this level of seniority and expertise in the room, we guarantee a mature conversation where real problems are addressed and active solutions from the community are offered up. If you’re ramping up a new project this quarter, curious about what others in your field are doing, or simply have questions about how to make your current systems more efficient – these Executive Roundtables are for you.

When I need a new product I go to my peers – I talk to this group, I go to these discussions. They always help show me what’s working and what’s not.
