Despite being l33t technologists, many infosec leaders feel overwhelmed, marginalized and resigned to the notion that CISO stands for "Career is So Over". This talk is about positive deviants; those who steer clear of the scape goat mentality and establish themselves as business leaders and facilitators. Come hear about one CISO's "cage rattling questions"  and how he harnesses for influence; or another CISO's "Do not do" list that will make you cringe. If you are responsible for your company's security program (or would like to be) come participate in this conversation on what it takes to deliver WIN.
