Enterprise security leaders agree: digital transformation calls for fundamental changes to existing security strategies. There will be shifts in IT security priorities over the next year, with changes in corporate culture and organizational structures, including responsibilities. Most executives are already changing their approach to cybersecurity.

Panelists at the 2017 President’s Roundtable, Inc. (PRT) CEO Summit on October 19, held in Washington, D.C., included CPS’ Connie Uthoff, associate program director for the master’s degree in Cybersecurity Strategy and Information Management.

She joined Michael Applebaum, vice president of product marketing for Tenable, Inc., and Sarah Geffroy, director of global policy for AT&T, discussing some of the key security challenges which face our digitally connected nation and the world.
