From the Cyber Battlefield to the Boardroom: Technology Leadership in Government and the Private Sector
For large organisations in both the private sector and government, Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) play an increasingly vital role in enabling board members and senior executives to engage in appropriate cyber security risk management and ensure their organisations are able to operate effectively and remain nimble in response to a rapidly evolving cyber threat landscape.

Bethany De Lude is a distinguished technology leader with experience serving as a cyber warrior for the U.S. intelligence community, the first CISO for the U.S. national court system, and the CISO and Managing Director of The Carlyle Group – one of the world’s largest private equity firms with more than 290 portfolio companies. Join us for a fireside chat moderated by former Pentagon special counsel and Co-Lead of Global Cyber Incident Response at Mayer Brown, David Simon, for a discussion of leadership lessons from her trailblazing career in cybersecurity leadership, key challenges for cybersecurity leaders on the horizon, and what it means to be a technology leader and change maker in both public and private sectors.
