Access42 Cybersecurity Summit

Organisaties moeten anders gaan denken: in plaats van zich af te vragen of een aanval zal plaatsvinden, moeten ze zich richten op hoe snel ze kunnen herstellen als dat gebeurt.

Nu de grens rondom cybersecurity (perimeter) steeds verder opschuift, gaat het niet langer om het bouwen van hogere muren, maar om hoe snel je weer kunt opbouwen als die muren worden doorbroken. Welkom in het nieuwe tijdperk van cyberbeveiliging. Welkom in het tijdperk van resilience.

For many CISOs and security experts, information security feels like a relentless uphill battle. There’s always another regulation to navigate, another organizational roadblock to overcome, and another technical vulnerability to fix. It’s a world of constant pressure, and for many, it can feel like their work is simply ROT — Regulation, Organization, and Technology — each a source of frustration rather than a force for security.

But why does it have to be this way? Why do those responsible for safeguarding organizations often end up feeling overwhelmed? In my upcoming talk, I will explore the reasons behind this struggle and, more importantly, how we can change it.

We will take a close look at the three pillars of information security:

Regulation: How endless compliance requirements can create more confusion than clarity.
Organization: Why internal resistance and conflicting priorities often undermine security efforts.
Technology: The constant challenge of managing tools, vulnerabilities, and emerging threats.
But this talk is not just about identifying the problems — it’s about finding solutions. I will share practical strategies to help security leaders reclaim control, build resilience, and turn information security from a burden into a strategic advantage.

Join me for a fresh perspective on information security and learn how we can transform ROT into a foundation for security excellence.
