Please join us on Friday, April 1st, 2022 for Super Cyber Friday. Topic will be “Hacking Proactive Security: An hour of critical thinking about continually testing your defenses to improve your security posture.”

Joining David Spark (@dspark), producer of CISO Series for this discussion will be:

Geoff Belknap (@geoffbelknap), CISO, LinkedIn

In preparation for our discussion, think about the following:

What is the difference between doing the CIS controls vs. purple teaming?

What are ways to tell if your security truly is improving and you can show to management, look we’re better prepared.

What aspects of a security program can benefit most from purple teaming exercises?

What are the hardest elements to improve?

What does a tabletop exercise tell you about your security program?

It all starts at 1 PM Eastern/10 AM Pacific. At the end of the hour [2 PM Eastern/11 AM Pacific] we'll switch gears to our meetup where everyone will get a chance to chat face to face.

Best bad ideas get first responses in "Department of YES" or “Beat the Bad Idea”.

The BEST bad idea wins an award and a really awesome CISO Series jacket. Also, if you register early by the Tuesday (5pm PT) of that week’s video chat, you will be entered into a raffle where one lucky register will win a jacket (Winners must be US residents. Repeat winners get a $25 Amazon gift card).

Super Cyber Fridays are open discussions where all viewers and listeners are welcome to become participants. Before the scheduled event, connect your webcam and microphone (avoid Bluetooth) and test your equipment here. During the discussion, if you have a question or comment, let it be known in the chat room and our producer will do his best to get as many of you into the conversation. We look forward to you joining us.
