FROM RISK TO READINESS
Beyond IT: A Business Executive’s Playbook for Cyber Risk, Privacy Liability AI Governance
Cybersecurity, data privacy, and artificial intelligence are not simply technology issues. They are core business risks, and ultimate responsibility for them lies with CEOs and executive leadership.
Join NH Business Review for a candid, business-focused working session designed for executives accountable for protecting their organizations, customers, data, and reputations.
Using realistic business scenarios, our speakers will explore what happens when technology, privacy, security, and organizational risk collide. They will examine the questions leaders should be asking before an incident occurs, from legal exposure and internal controls to cyber response, vendor risk, insurance, and the growing use of AI within your business operations.
What You’ll Take Away
Participants will leave with:
- A practical framework for evaluating and mitigating cyber, privacy, and AI risks
- The essential questions to ask IT leaders, internal teams, vendors, and advisors
- A clearer view of where their organizations may be vulnerable
- Guidance on governance, contracts, incident response, and insurance
- A prioritized checklist to use with their leadership teams
Attendance is limited to encourage a frank conversation among peers and give participants meaningful access to the speakers. Attendees will be invited to submit questions in advance.
