A Live Debate on "Radical Transparency" in Cybersecurity: How Much is Too Much?
About

Hear from 3 cybersecurity leaders from different corners of the industry to discuss the concept of radical transparency in security. By fostering openness, collaboration, and accountability, organizations can raise the bar for cybersecurity and build trust with their stakeholders. But what does it really mean, should companies embrace it, and for those that do, what role can it play in achieving business goals?

Our panel features 3 cybersecurity leaders with extensive and varied experience in designing and sharing security programs with prospects and customers. With this spectrum of expertise comes a wide range of opinions on the topic.

Our panel will begin by describing the philosophy of “radical transparency” and what it can and should look like for software and technology companies who choose to endorse it. It will then feature a healthy debate among our leaders on the merits and risks inherent with the philosophy, and whether security teams should embrace it in their work. A key focus of this debate will focus on the effect of the philosophy on a vendor’s relationships with its prospects and customers.

Our panelists will offer a broad range of viewpoints on the topic of radical transparency, which will include:

- The case for radical transparency to become the norm in cybersecurity, including how we can learn from precedents and what shifts we will need to make as an industry
- How the philosophy can support learning from past incidents
- How radical transparency can find itself in tension with other organizational priorities such as trust and privacy
 

Learning Objectives:

  • At the end of this session participants will be able to understand key philosophies around transparency and trust
  • At the end of this session participants will be able to understand the merits and risks involved
  • At the end of this session participants will be able to apply the philosophy of transparency and trust in their own work
