Trellix, the cybersecurity company delivering the future of extended detection and response (XDR), has announced its new Mind of the CISO initiative, bringing global attention to the needs of the CISO community. The collaborative efforts span an inaugural CISO Council, research and webinars.
Trellix’s CISO Council is founded on the principle of information sharing. The council brings together global influential experts to educate the industry on the challenges and solutions needed to effect change. Members will participate in Trellix-hosted events around the world and will also provide insightful contributed content.
“CISOs face new challenges resulting from the rapidly changing threat landscape, the advents of AI and other disruptive technologies and regulatory changes,” said Harold Rivas, CISO at Trellix. “As chief defenders, we must actively collaborate with our peers to identify successful ways to navigate these challenges. Collaboration is one of the most potent tools we have.”
According to Trellix’s 2023 Mind of the CISO research, the top challenges CISOs face are too many sources of information, the changing regulatory landscape, a growing attack surface, and the lack of skilled talent on their teams. AI is the newest change they need to navigate.
Trellix’s Mind of the CISO highlights the need for increased engagement and support for CISOs and this new initiative will create additional resources and pathways to support collaboration between CISOs and key stakeholders in their organisations. Trellix will host virtual summits, workshops and webinars throughout the second half of 2023 and beyond, while continuing to add members to the CISO Council.
