Presentation: CyberSecurity 2020: Can Cognitive Change the Odds?

Speaker: Diana Kelley, IBM Global Executive Security Adviser

Topic: Cybercrime and financial fraud are increasingly played as a sophisticated team sport by organized criminals. What will it take to battle them in 2020? How can organizations take action now to prepare? To help answer this question, IBM Security and the IBM Institute for Business Value recently conducted a research study on cognitive security in the marketplace to understand the cybersecurity challenges companies are facing today and planning for tomorrow. The study surveyed over 700 security professionals across 18 industries and 35 countries. In this talk, attendees will hear insights from study co-author, Diana Kelley, from this study including: the changing security priority landscape, why speed and complexity are the biggest cybersecurity challenges; and organizational readiness characteristics and prerequisites to adopt cognitive security. Attendees will leave with an understanding of the quantitative and qualitative benefits of cognitive and a strategic roadmap to help them plan for the next evolution of security.
