The DACH Information Security Network enables CISOs, from the largest organisations in the DACH region, to discuss their current challenges, collaborate and share their experiences to maximise their security defence.

With the disruption to businesses during Covid-19, CISOs have had to adapt to new challenges. Hackers and their tactics have become more sophisticated and aggressive, with supply-chains being targeted, and with phishing emails being commonplace. Not only are CISOs having to adopt ways to strengthen security networks used at home but are having to consider long-term strategies to ensure employees are more security-minded so that security breaches can be swiftly isolated and rectified.

A shortage of skills in the IT department is often a problem that CISOs face, but there have been positive developments following transitions in ways of working. A more flexible working environment provides huge opportunities for recruiting and retaining future generations of cyber leaders.

CISOs representing many industries will gather to share their experiences and plans for dealing with challenges and mitigating risks in 2023 and beyond.
