Speaker: Brian Cross, Regional Director for Public Sector & Education, Sumo Logic Inc.
Topic: An Open Discussion on Modernizing Cybersecurity Operations and the Continual Journey to Improve Security Posture
Synopsis: As the topic indicates, this will be an open discussion with the Sacramento Valley chapter rather than a one-way presentation to the group. We are all at various stages of maturity in our cybersecurity operations, and most likely, we all recognize that the journey to improve security posture & maintain cybersecurity compliance is ever evolving. Be prepared to discuss your own organization's and/or your customers' cybersecurity maturity level as well as any helpful advice that you'd like to share with other chapter members.
Speaker Bio: For over twenty years, Brian Cross has guided Fortune 500 companies, public sector agencies, and educational institutions in their digital transformation journeys to modernize IT operations and improve cybersecurity posture. His experience ranges from work with large cloud providers such as Microsoft to understaffed organizations with only rudimentary cybersecurity expertise. In his current role at Sumo Logic working with public sector and education customers in the Western states, he regularly works with customers at all stages of cybersecurity maturity. He has found that, regardless of maturity level, there are immediate steps that any organization can take to improve upon cybersecurity operations and further mitigate risk.
