Digital Transformation: A Journey Not a Destination
There are many forces that are driving companies to continue to transform how they do business. Technological advances such as IoT, AI, Machine Learning, Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality are creating demanding expectations from customers, employees and boards. Adding to the complexity of CIOs and CISOs is the increasing threats to the security of the data that is at the heart of digital transformation. This keynote presentation will focus on the realities that this transformation will never end and it is critical to implement both the mindset and processes to treat digital transformation as a journey...not a destination.
Takeaways:
- It is critical to realize that Digital Transformation will never end, but will always be unfolding
- CIOs and CISOs must implement processes to ensure that not only their departments are forward thinking, but that their entire company is aware of what new technologies can bring to bear for customers and employees

Digital Transformation: Cure-all, Placebo or Poison Pill?
Are you really ready for Digital Transformation? While the business benefits are clear, technology adoption, the escalating threat landscape and compliance to any number of standards and legal requirements are all challenges to any DX efforts. If your organization is moving into the Digital future, you need to make sure that your security infrastructure isn't stuck in the past.
This session will provide the insight towards a comprehensive and adaptive security architecture that can support your organization's changing objectives and more importantly, evolve as the cyber threat challenge evolves as well.

Tech Trends for 2019 and Beyond
Roundtable Discussion to Determine the Future Hot Topics - Part I
This will be a closed door roundtable debate where we will split into two groups; one table CIO focused, and one table CISO focused.

Later in the day, we will then take the nominated topics and dive deeper into what we all agree will be the number 1 priority.

AI and Autonomous Response, a New Approach to Cybersecurity
The human immune system is incredibly complex and continually adapts to new forms of threats, such as viral DNA that constantly mutates. It works by learning about what is normal for the body, identifying and neutralizing outliers that do not fit that evolving pattern of normality. Darktrace applies the same logic to enterprise and industrial environments. Powered by machine learning and AI algorithms, Enterprise Immune System technology spots emerging threats that would otherwise go unnoticed.

Sixtine Theobald Brosseau, Account Manager, Darktrace

Working Lunch and Panel
CIOs/CISOs as the Consummate Communicator
Digital transformation is changing how you equip your employees and how your company interacts with customers. It is also changing the role of the CIO and CISO to be a business leader and internal sales leader for transformation. CIOs are now responsible for communicating strategies and recommendations to CxOs, boards and key stakeholders within a company. Join us, during lunch, for a passionate panel discussion with your peers as they share how they are successfully communicating internally to accomplish the company's goals.
Takeaways:
- CIOs must be great communicators, not only with their teams, but the rest of the organization
- CIOs must learn the best ways to communicate clarity and urgency with Boards and CXOs

Think Tank
Driving Digital Transformation: Proactive Path vs. Reactive Response
Shakespeare wrote that we should be afraid of greatness as "some are born great, some achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust upon them". This is true today as well for CIOs and CISOs. Digital transformation will happen, the only question being will the CIO drive it or will it be thrust upon them. We will discuss how to be a proactive voice in driving your company's digital transformation journey instead of waiting and responding to the voice of others.
Takeaways:
- Digital transformation is happening with or without our actions.
- The most successful CIOs will drive this transformation from a proactive point of view instead of reacting to internal and external voices.

What's the Next Stop On the Transformation Journey?
Our Governing Board will summarize the learnings from the day and discuss the path forward for building an ongoing community of CIOs where common issues can be addressed and success stories can be shared.
Takeaways:
- Building an ongoing community with your peers can be an invaluable resource for tackling the Digital Transformation projects ahead of you
- Sharing stories of success (and failures) is not reserved to a one day CIO Summit but should be shared on a regular basis with your peers
