Title & Speakers Event

Are you a cybersecurity professional looking to connect with like-minded professionals, share experiences, and make friends? Look no further!

Agenda 5 PM - 6 PM: Welcome & Ice Breakers 6 PM - 6.30 PM: The CISO Shift: From Security Execution to Strategic Influence 6.30 PM - 8 PM: Networking

Topic: The CISO Shift: From Security Execution to Strategic

There is a point in every security career where the work stops being about vulnerability backlogs and tool configuration, and becomes about shaping how an organization understands and manages risk. This talk breaks down that shift: identifying Crown Jewels and irreversible failure modes, defining the security functions that must never degrade, and building secure-by-default paved roads that engineering teams actually use. We’ll cover how to communicate in attacker intent instead of CVE counts, show real risk reduction through a few high-signal KPIs, and earn the trust required to influence architecture, roadmap, and culture.

About the speaker:

Sheetal Joseph is a cybersecurity executive with over 20 years of experience leading security strategy and transformation across financial services, digital assets, and other high-impact sectors. She has served as CISO and senior security leader in high-growth, regulated environments, guiding organizations through European regulatory scrutiny while scaling modern, cloud-native security programs. She speaks on security leadership, influence, and the practical realities of driving meaningful change in complex organizations.

Join us for an evening of real talk on one of the most mission-critical — yet overlooked — elements of security work: hiring.

Agenda:

  • 7:00 PM - 7:15 PM: Welcome
  • 7:15 PM – 7:45 PM: Lightning Talk – “The Hiring Gap: Why Great People Get Overlooked (and What to Do About It)” * The stakes are high in cybersecurity — and the cost of a bad hire, or a missed opportunity, can ripple across the entire organization. * In this talk, Konstanty Sliwowski, Founder and Lead Trainer of The Hiring School, breaks down what he calls the hiring gap — the disconnect between how hiring actually works in tech vs. how it could work with just a bit more clarity and intention. * Drawing on 20+ years of technical hiring experience, Konstanty will explore: - Why so many strong candidates don’t make it past the interview process - The hidden biases and missteps in tech hiring — especially in cybersecurity roles - How both hiring managers and candidates can take a more intentional\, effective approach

  • For managers, it’s about getting sharper on how you define success, how you structure interviews, and how you make decisions that actually strengthen your team. * For candidates, it’s about learning how to position yourself, spot real opportunities, and lead conversations that uncover what you need to make the right choice. * Whether you’re hiring, interviewing — or doing both — this session will give you practical ways to shift the hiring game in your favour.

  • Who Should Attend: * - Cybersecurity professionals of all kinds - Hiring managers and team leads - Candidates navigating the job market - Anyone curious about building better teams and careers *
