Key corporate decision-makers including Executive Directors and C-suite executives participated in the Uniken Security Innovation Summit – 2014, the maiden edition of the summit hosted by Uniken.
The Summit brought together industry veterans and thought leaders to address the growing need for future-proof information security solutions and identify steps towards securing digital enterprises – today, tomorrow and beyond. The select gathering saw senior executives across industry verticals and defence attend, including CIOs/CTOs/CISOs, Heads of Information Security, Risk, Audit, Vigilance, Fraud Detection & Compliance Heads, Infrastructure and Technology.
Sanjay Deshpande, Co-Founder & CEO, Uniken, said, “With the recent news of organized crime breaches, info-security clearly is no more a concern of just technology practitioners of an enterprise. The cybersecurity solutions landscape is rapidly evolving and so are methods and techniques of cybercrime. It is becoming increasingly clear that cybersecurity and the corresponding risk mitigation strategies need to be intricately woven into strategic corporate decisions given the financial, reputational and legal impact on organizations. Hence, there is the need for more concerted and synergistic efforts at industry-level to overcome challenges and seek innovative and future-proof solutions to the ever-evolving, rapidly-growing concern of cybersecurity.”
The Uniken Security Innovation Summit also spoke about the potential for Indo-Israel collaboration in the field of cybersecurity, bringing together thought leaders from both nations in an effort to seek joint solutions and collaborative opportunities.
Sameer Ratolikar, CISO, Axis Bank, and Arun Gupta, CIO, CIPLA, participated in an interactive session to address challenges in cybersecurity for Indian organizations, the evolving roles of the CIO and emergence of the Chief Information Security Officer. The Summit recognized that recent instances of data-breaches and info-security lapses have had a far-reaching impact on an organization on various fronts: financial, legal and reputational. In order to address the legal aspects of information-security and cyber-threats, Prashant Mali, Cyber Law Attorney, also participated in the Summit.
