Investing in Compliance and Cybersecurity | Making the Case
Energy organizations face mounting pressure to safeguard operations against evolving cyber and operational risks. C-level executives view improvements to the industrial network and security systems differently than architects and engineers. Executives focus on reducing risk to protect the organization’s customers and intellectual property, and to avoid being the next news headline. While no framework or regulation can eliminate risk entirely, resilient organizations succeed by operationalizing cybersecurity across all levels—from the power station to the executive suite. In this discussion, cybersecurity practitioners will share how they prioritize what matters most, translate risk into actionable strategies, and build resilience in their people, processes, and technologies. Attendees will walk away with a clearer view of how to turn strategy into sustained operational protection.
