Gartner Security & Risk Management Summit is going virtual
Enabling Innovation: Secure the Future. Manage Risk. Build Resiliency.
Recent global events have shown that innovation is essential for enterprises to survive and flourish. But accelerating digital innovation brings new complexity and risk.
As a security and risk management leader, you can enable your enterprise to embrace the technologies of tomorrow, today — and do it in the safest possible manner. You can help your colleagues understand the risks inherent in digital initiatives so that they can realize the benefits of innovation securely. And you play a key role in making sure that security resilience is built-in from the start.
Business
Lead digital business success by using digital design practices and defy conventional thinking during times of uncertainty to emerge as a winner.

Inspiration

In this time of extraordinary turmoil, it’s even more important to come together as a community. We look forward to welcoming you to the virtual Gartner Security & Risk Management Summit!
