Financial Services Cybersecurity Summit

8:00 AM ET - 5:00 PM ET

Event Overview

The annual ISMG New York Financial Services summit dedicates a full day to enhancing cybersecurity education for CISOs and their teams. The event will begin with a keynote session featuring Susan Koski, CISO of PNC, and Matanda Doss, executive director of cybersecurity and technology controls at JPMorgan Chase.

During this highly anticipated session, they will delve into team skill development, effective leadership techniques, and the intricacies of incident response, all in the context of the transformative potential of technology, especially AI.

Participants will gain valuable insights from an interactive session led by Aravind Swaminathan, a top U.S. personal liability lawyer and global co-chair cybersecurity and data privacy at Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP. This session will analyze the Joe Sullivan Uber case and engage in a mock exercise exploring actions CISOs can take in challenging situations.

The summit will also comprehensively explore incident response strategies through an interactive “Solution Room” exercise. This challenging exercise will prompt CISOs and cybersecurity leaders to formulate incident response strategies in the scenario of a global ransomware attack.

Moreover, the summit will delve into the technical landscape of AI. This segment aims to equip leaders with the necessary knowledge for secure AI implementation while considering supply chain budget aspects. As cybersecurity leaders strive to maintain stability amid rapid evolution, the summit will offer guidance on achieving balance during periods of change. This emphasizes the pivotal role of steady leadership in safeguarding digital landscapes.

Navigating the Storm: Protecting Financial Services in an Era of Cyber Turbulence

As if these challenges weren’t enough, the financial sector finds itself at a pivotal juncture with the soaring adoption of cloud technology. The allure of the cloud brings efficiency and scalability but also amplifies risks, promising to usher in a new era of cyber vulnerabilities.

Drawing from commonly accepted statistics, we find that 75% of data breaches in this sector involve hacking and malware, while accidental disclosures account for 18% of the total breaches. Insider threats have risen to 6%, underscoring the importance of internal security, and physical breaches remain consistent at 2%. The numbers are clear, and the message is stark: the financial services industry is at a crossroads, facing a complex and evolving cybersecurity landscape.

Join us for an exclusive keynote session that unites top practitioners from some of the nation’s leading financial institutions. This gathering presents a masterclass in CISO leadership, addressing the latest developments and threats impacting the financial services industry.

Key discussion points will include:

  • The expanded attack surfaces created by the increased reach of APIs;
  • Leveraging the capabilities of artificial intelligence to bolster fraud detection and threat monitoring;
  • Strategies for safeguarding reputational integrity in the face of data breaches;
  • Navigating the complex web of state and federal regulations to ensure compliance.

In an age marked by the looming specter of cyberthreats, this keynote promises invaluable insights to help financial institutions fortify their defenses and chart a course to greater cybersecurity resilience.

Software Security: How to Prioritize, Measure and Convey It to the Board

But the cybersecurity Executive Order and continuing high-profile breaches have increased awareness around cybersecurity – especially for software – among the members of the board at organizations, making it important for security leaders to communicate to them about the organization’s risk posture.
 
However, software security solutions differ from other security solutions: You don’t install a tool; you have to build security from the start.
 
This session provides answers to the following questions that security leaders want answered:
 
• How do you approach the software security challenge, and where is it among your priorities?
• How do you make the successful business case for a software security program?
• With a program in place, how do you ensure your developers are following your standards?
• How do you measure the success of your program?
• How do you communicate the metrics to your board and senior management?
