In cybersecurity, as in many fields, hands-on practice is essential to developing the skills and instincts necessary for effective response to incidents. Threat Simulation exercises, such as tabletop exercises, red and purple team operations, and penetration testing, are critical components of this hands-on training. They help build muscle memory, allowing us to respond quickly and effectively under pressure. Join us for a #SINETWebinar on November 19, Models for Robust Incident Response: The Importance of Training. Robert Rodriguez, Chairman of SINET, will moderate an expert panel including Jim Rutt, #CIO, Dana Foundation, David W. Stender, EVP, Enterprise #Risk Officer & #CISO, BankUnited, Manan Kakkar, #Cybersecurity AVP, Providence, Nikhil Kalani, CISO, The Reynolds and Reynolds Company, Christopher Pogue, Senior Director of Digital Forensics Incident Response, CyberCX, and Stephen Fridakis, CISO, Oracle Health.

SINET was honored to gather a group of esteemed CISOs / Risk Executives in beautiful Jackson Hole, Wyoming recently. We experienced two days of Thought Leadership, networking, and wellness. As SINET remains steadfast in our mission to support the continuing evolution of the 21st century Risk Executive, we also recognize the importance of wellness and health due to the increasing amount of responsibility and pressure that comes with the job. In addition to the Workshop we also shared quality time in the outdoors; fly fishing, horseback riding, UTV riding, and absorbing the surrounding landscape. Thank you to our esteemed attendees for contributing to the greater SINET Community. A trusted community that you have all helped build.
