Using Incident Response Practice For Stealth Risk Analysis
About This Session
As a CISO, it's hard to get the attention of executive leadership amongst all the competing business issues. One big problem is that even if they agree on the potential impact of an incident, they won't agree on the probability of it happening, so your plans get lost in the shuffle. In this session we'll talk about one way to get them to take the risks as seriously as you do: tabletop exercises. Put on your social engineering hats, and prepare for the kind of fun that usually only the red team gets to have.
