CIO Insights: The CIO Perspective on Cybersecurity Strategy

Sponsored by CGI and Red Canary

Cybersecurity isn’t just an IT issue—it’s a business imperative. Join leading CIOs as they share how they partner with CISOs, align strategy with security, and help their organizations stay resilient.

As cyber threats grow more sophisticated, cybersecurity has become a business-wide priority. In this panel, Chief Information Officers will share how they view security through a strategic lens—embedding it into business goals, balancing innovation with risk, and working closely with CISOs to strengthen resilience.

Hear how today’s CIOs communicate risk to boards and executives, align on talent and technology decisions, and ensure security remains a core driver of organizational success.
