The 9th Annual Cybersecurity Conference for Executives, hosted by Ankura and the Johns Hopkins University Information Security Institute, will foster an open learning environment for C-suite executives, IT and security directors, risk managers, legal/compliance directors, and more across all industries. The world of regulatory compliance is becoming increasingly more complex, as privacy and cybersecurity requirements are enforced both nationally and overseas. With regulations such as GDPR, CCPA, CMMC, SEC, HIPAA, and more, executive leaders are challenged to identify the applicable controls for their organization and ensure compliance. Join us for a day of sessions hosted by industry experts discussing a variety of topics including:

• Overview of current and emerging cyber and privacy regulations
• Future of cyber regulatory compliance
• How organizations can develop and/or enhance their cyber and privacy programs

Since 2014, Johns Hopkins University’s Information Security Institute and the Ankura team have collaborated to provide targeted cybersecurity tips for executives nationwide. Our educational conferences provide insight into top cybersecurity threats, trending regulations, and cyber best practices in an environment that’s free of vendor pitches. Following these sessions, we invite you to join us for a networking reception to further build on the topics of the day and develop connections with attendees and speakers. Ankura will be donating all proceeds from the event for a partial scholarship to the JHU Information Security Institute.
