The endlessly expanding digital footprint of modern organizations is introducing new security challenges. The pandemic response has accelerated hybrid work and the digitalization of business processes in the cloud. Concurrently, we are experiencing sustained big game ransomware attacks, multiple attacks on the digital supply chain, deeply embedded vulnerabilities and increasing attacks on identity systems. These accumulated security challenges are compounded by a shortage of skilled security staff at all levels.
Gartner Security & Risk Management Summit 2023, 28 – 29 March, in Sydney, Australia,
helps security and risk management leaders evolve their roles to meet future challenges and elevate their standing in their organizations.

Gartner keynote
It might not always feel this way, but being a chief information security officer (CISO) is a little like being a Hollywood celebrity. In fact, CISOs have a compelling story to tell about why people, from executives to frontline employees, should care about risk and security. This session delves into how to tell a great cyber story, including why it’s hard and why it matters right now.
Opening Keynote: How to Get People to Care About Security and Risk
Mary Mesaglio, Managing Vice President, Executive Leadership
Every year, Gartner produces impactful predictions across all practices. This presentation compiles the top predictions prepared by our cybersecurity experts. Security and risk management leaders should monitor these trends to be successful in the digital era, especially as most recognize that global change could potentially be one crisis away.

Diving for 40 years, Dr. Harris has focused on cave exploration since 2000. He was requested to assist with the rescue of 12 boys and their coach from the flooded Tham Luang cave in northern Thailand in July 2018. Along with his diving partner Craig Challen, he was closely involved with the extraction of the boys from over 2.5 km underground using an unconventional and unprecedented technique. His talk about the rescue illuminates the desperate nature of the operation, the importance of close teamwork and the courage shown around the difficult decisions made by the team. It is guaranteed you’ll be on the edge of their seats.

Tracks
Gain actionable insights from four topic-based tracks and two spotlight tracks that span the entire agenda.
Four tracks covering your top priorities
The CISO Circle
A. Cybersecurity Leadership B. Infrastructure, Data and Application Security, and Security Operations C. Cyber and IT Risk D. Identity and Access Management
Anyone in security can benefit from a greater awareness of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) efforts, but it is increasingly a mandatory skill set for leaders. This track helps you frame your DEI efforts with a security lens and assists you in your efforts to reduce intentional and unintentional bias.
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion for Security Initiatives
Spotlight tracks
Security product leaders must transform their offerings to be relevant in a new world and culture, rethink strategies and anticipate new buyer needs. This track focuses on helping leaders simplify and reframe current product offerings to succeed in changed markets.
Competitive Security Market Dynamics for Product Leaders
Today’s cybersecurity leaders are faced with a fragmented, interdependent world where they have less control over the decisions around cyber risk than ever before. The sessions in this track look at trends in value creation, distributed risk decision making, leadership and effectiveness, and offer practical advice on how to create a security-driven conscious culture in a distributed environment.
A. Cybersecurity Leadership
Diversity, Equity and Inclusion for Security Initiatives Competitive Security Market Dynamics for Product Leaders
Spotlight tracks let you explore key topics and perspectives in detail. Understand the impact of new trends, and consider ways to support your career and business goals.
View Full Agenda
Are you interested in all things related to infrastructure security like zero-trust identity, API security and other top trends in security risk management? Or are you wondering how you can exploit automation to help standardize and accelerate your security operations capabilities? If so, then the sessions in this track provide the tactical, operational and strategic insight you need to help plan and execute a new direction for your security program.
B. Infrastructure, Data and Application Security, and Security Operations
Cybersecurity leaders struggle to mature their cyber and IT risk management practices beyond conducting risk assessments. Partially because of new challenges from privacy compliance to physical security; partially because of a lack of agility in program management as well as limited in process automations. This track offers topical sessions, as well as content, for different levels in risk management maturity.
C. Cyber and IT Risk
Identity is a critical foundation for the security of the systems that support our rapidly expanding virtual world. This track ensures that you have the tools and insights you need to support effective identity and fraud initiatives. Improve governance and strengthen privileged access management practices. Understand how to apply IAM to systems and devices. Leverage customer IAM.
D. Identity and Access Management
Designed specifically for chief information security officers (CISOs) and those serving in the CISO role, the CISO Circle offers a curated executive experience, delivering presentations, discussions and exclusive networking opportunities throughout the conference. We recommend applying for this program when you register for the conference as seats for CISO Circle sessions are limited and fill up quickly. Make sure you don’t miss out on this exclusive experience, available only to verified CISOs and those serving in the CISO role attending Gartner Security & Risk Management Summit.
