Webinar: How to Approach Corporate Risk From a Management and Oversight Perspective

Managing risk at the corporate level is a balancing act that is closely linked to security, business intelligence and predictive analytics. While risk oversight and risk management are complementary operational functions, they are not interchangeable.
The Security Executive Council describes risk oversight as “setting the tone at the top” — specifying the culture of the company, identifying and prioritizing the risks the company faces, defining its risk appetite and monitoring management’s handling of risk to ensure it is in step with that appetite and culture. While it paints risk management as the implementation of policies and procedures to transfer or mitigate the identified risks that cannot be accepted by the organization. Risk oversight directs risk management, and both either directly or indirectly influence the security function.
While the foundational elements of corporate risk management have remained constant, the myriad of challenges of 2020 and beyond have shifted the paradigm on how business operations and risk is applied. A devastating pandemic has created economic and healthcare havoc, while social mandates have charted new and sometime violent obstacles for enterprises from retail to infrastructure.
Our panel of experts will discuss the hot issues impacting corporate risk and its interdependence with security dogma and technology. Some of the highlights include:
- Who makes security policy and how it is embraced by the C-Suite?
- How do security departments share their risk metrics with management?
- How do you sort mayhem and misinformation from reality to create a risk mitigation plan?
- How do you use real-time data for proactive risk mitigation?
- Creating the reality of unified risk oversight
