Cyber security has become one of the major challenges that organisations face today. According to the 21st PwC CEO Survey, 33% of CEOs are extremely concerned about cyber threats. Matthijs van der Wel will provide a high level overview of various threat actors and how their objectives and operations impact your cyber risk profile. He will also discuss various practical models that your organization can adopt today.

Speaker: Matthijs van der Wel, Director Forensic Technology Solutions, PwC, NL

In a VUCA (Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, Ambiguous) environment, traditional roles are changing and new skills are needed. Technical ability is important but soft - people skills even more so in a diverse and fast changing context if we need to innovate and lead successfully. This can be a particular challenge for security leaders who have transitioned to management roles in a business setting following careers and leadership development in Military or Law Enforcement where command and communication structures were very different to today’s business cultures.

Following an introduction from the CSO’s perspective by Bruno Kalhoj, Head of Division, Safety and Security, European Central Bank, the session will be led by Balvinder Singh Powar, Associate Professor at IE Business School and Partner/Director at BOOSTER Space Industries & AERDRON.

Are you aware of the risks you face as a traveller? This interactive workshop will ask you to step into a different traveller profile and consider whether the risks you face have changed and what information and help you might now need?

In groups representing different traveller profiles this workshop will ask the participants to prepare for a journey, with their current employer in mind, that takes in: day to day inclusivity at work, perceived versus real travel risk, how best to communicate, educate and train diverse travelling employees, what resources and help is available and who has responsibility or can help?

The workshop will explain some of the key drivers for diverse travel risk and use examples to demonstrate when things have gone wrong and what best practice looks like. At the end of the workshop the participants should be able to review their own travel risk training and education programs to ensure it is supporting their diverse travelling population.

Fake news is all around us. How to respond to it in an attempt to prevent fake news from becoming a crisis for your organization?

If fake news threatens your organization or even jeopardizes its continuity, the crisis management team needs to respond swiftly, but wisely. One of the factors to consider is a security response, whether cyber or physical. What would your input be from an Enterprise Security Risk Management (ESRM) perspective if the board requires it?

In this practical and interactive crisis management training you will get busy! We will combine theory, scenario and ‘bring it to the board room’ presentation elements. The quickly developing scenario challenges the participants to come up with ESRM-based response suggestions. You will need to explain (and defend) your suggested crisis response to the board in an elevator pitch manner.

ASIS Crisis Management & Business Continuity Council members and trainers act as board member assessing and challenging your suggested crisis response. So, the takeaways of this interactive training are instant!

Terrorist attacks have resulted in tremendous amounts of income loss, not only due to physical damage at the attack site, but also as a result of the perceived threat by potential travellers of future terrorist attacks in the region. As the effectiveness of security is measured when an offence takes place, and either the offence is stopped by security measures, or succeeds due to security vulnerabilities, it is a great challenge to measure return on investment in security measures prior to an attack taking place.

This presentation addresses several aspects relating to business perceptions of risk and security. It presents not only preferences as to security, but also risk perceptions and if these preferences and perceptions differ based on current home country.

Ideally, preferably before a building is developed on the drawing table but also with a renovation/refurbishment, the importance of security should be addressed by all parties (architect, client, interior designer, construction firm, insurer et cetera).

However, working in cultural buildings, private homes, or historic corporate headquarters brings additional challenges as existing structures cannot be adapted to optimise modern security thinking and measures.

In these cases, we need alternative approaches so that security can still be effectively designed, and in some cases, be integrated in an existing building without any visitor being aware of the existence of the security measures.

This presentation will explain how to perform a specific risk assessment from which to derive protection concepts against identified risks. A systematic protection scheme can then define and document the necessary structural protection measures as well as the organisational safeguards.

Cultural and historical venues by their nature are open and welcoming locations. Because of this, striking a balance between open public access and appropriate security measures is very important to ensure visitors are not intimidated and the welcoming approach is maintained. The provision of specialized training of staff and volunteers is an important way of achieving this objective. Although predictive profiling has traditionally been a human based methodology, leaps in technology have resulted in the development of predictive threat tools such as streaming data infrastructure, patented profiling technology and self-learning analytics — to create new solutions that complement the means to identify potential threats. The purpose of this presentation is to explore the use of predictive profiling as a tool to prevent or mitigate a threat before it evolves into an attack or criminal event.

There is no better way to spread a message than making it easy and straightforward.

Resilience and every discipline connected to it are everyone’s business in an organization. By definition, resilience is not an exclusive property of a few technicians sitting in a closed room, but – just like lymph or blood – it runs through any level and department. Everyone in the same organization must speak and practice resilience fluently.

For this to happen, and for everyone to be involved and committed, it cannot be complicated, and it cannot be a labyrinth of technical buzzwords. Resilience has to be universal.

Under the GDPR, data controllers are required to notify their supervisory authority when a personal data breach occurs, unless it is unlikely to result in risks to the rights and freedoms of individuals. The notification needs to be done without undue delay, no later than 72 hours after the controller has become aware of the breach (with some exceptions). It is crucial for organizations to understand their obligations and the details of this tight timeline as well as the risk-based triggers, and what they entail. In this session, we’ll review the personal data breach rules under the GDPR and provide tips to help you map out a 72-hour personal data breach action plan.

• Understand the implications of the GDPR for controllers and processors
• Map out a GDPR-ready 72-hour personal data breach action plan
• Outline the details of this tight timeline as well as the risk-based triggers and what they entail
• Implement efficient and effective data handling practices in the face of new GDPR requirements

Speaker: David Sinclair, CIPP/E, Privacy Consultant at OneTrust

As advances in technology continue to increase the amount of data in the world and companies send more people to conduct business in remote locations, there is a growing expectation for organisations to gain information faster about incidents and threats that could impact them. The increased speed of information sharing means that a security team’s traditional challenges during a crisis, such as lack of time and difficulty determining what information is relevant, are compounded. Used correctly, however, this vast volume of data can be a significant enabler for security teams. Dataminr will examine effective crisis response in the modern world. Within the first 30 minutes, a security manager must make crucial decisions quickly to protect the company and its people. Real-time, publicly available data, like social media, blogs, and the dark web, is essential for early event awareness, improved visibility, and more confident decision making.

Speaker: Tim Willis, EMEA Director Corporate Security Sales, Dataminr

According to Forrester companies are investing significant resources in sophisticated controls to protect their employees, brand and assets from critical events. These disruptive incidents (ranging from cyberattacks to terrorist activity) increasingly lead to business impacts such as operational losses, brand damage, and concerns for employee health and safety.

Despite the investments being made, companies struggle to optimize their critical event management (CEM) operations, slowing down response time and creating potentially life-threatening confusion.

In this session we will look at how a unified approach to critical event management meets the demands for rapid response and speedy incident remediation.

Speaker: John van Laerhoven, Managing Director Benelux, Respond, An Everbridge Company

For the last decade we have been investing in the same security controls over and over again: access control, video surveillance and intrusion detection. Enhancements have been made in each of those domains, but the weaknesses that existed 10 years ago are still weaknesses today. We’ll discuss a fundamental flaw in how we approach physical security, look at what we can learn from the cyber security space where a similar mistake was made but addressed, and propose an alternative approach to move to better and smarter physical security.

Speaker: Bart Vansevenant, Co-founder, Ticto

Digital transformation is today’s hottest business topic. Companies of all sizes across many sectors are seeking ways to leverage new technology. So how do security practitioners get involved without drowning in buzzword soup? And how do you support innovation whilst also supporting good security practice?

Digital transformation requires us to look at business models, roles, and tools, in different ways. Some companies are focused on efficiency or incremental process gains, whilst others are completely re-inventing their business models and creating new ways to engage with customers.

Often, debate on digital transformation is polarised between utopian visions of a world full of convenient, personalised services and dystopian visions of mass unemployment, catastrophic cyberattacks and malicious AI. So, this session has been designed by ASIS to get a grip on core issues facing security professionals and identify key opportunities to advance, and key areas of concern.

Practically speaking, already many systems that traditionally had their primary function as security can now be leveraged for different purposes. For example; IP cameras generate business insights in retail, or traffic management in a smart city; risk assessment data can be packaged and re-sold as intelligence; access control provides insights for building management etc.
So how do we capitalise on digital opportunities? And how do we do it safely, securely and profitably?

After a short scene-setting presentation by Michael Gips, CPP, Chief Global Knowledge Officer, ASIS International, we will use live-polling and the expert facilitation skills of Prof. Martin Gill, Managing Director, Perpetuity Research to guide us through an interactive discussion and lively ideas exchange.

If you’re advanced on your digital journey, please join us to share and benchmark – and if you’re setting out, this is a great opportunity to learn from firsthand experience.

Recent incidents provide disturbing evidence of the stark vulnerabilities of Industrial Control Systems (ICS) to natural, human-factor accidental, and malicious threats.

This presentation includes numerous current, high-profile examples of ICS threats, vulnerabilities, and the severe consequences of such incidents. The presentation will help you learn and understand:
• What ICS includes;
• Where ICS can be found;
• Potential threats and vulnerabilities to and from ICS;
• Why ICS assets are critical to enterprise, business, operations, and mission objectives;
• How to take a proactive, protective systematic management approach to identify and protect the enterprise.

This presentation provides a wake-up call to everyone who manages or is responsible for critical ICS assets and their architectures, systems, facilities and infrastructure due diligence.

Know Who You Hire – the Challenge of Vetting Just Gets Harder
Presented by Gilad Solnik, CPP, PSP, Director, Security and Loss Prevention, EMEA, Global Security Operations (GSO), Amazon

Ensuring the safety and security of your employees, company information, and business operations is essential for any modern business. Therefore, knowing who you’re hiring into your organisation is essential. Pre-employment screening measures are aimed at ensuring a safe and secure work environment while setting a foundation for good personnel security (Cpni.gov.uk, 2015). This discussion reviews the how privacy and data protection initiatives and the GDPR has introduced new challenges and restrictions on vetting and pre-employment background checks, and will provide an exchange of potential practical solutions.



Storing CCTV Footage Securely – Reassessing the Criticality of Servers
Presented by Henk Marsman, Lead Product Manager Identity and Access Management, Rabobank, NL

Since the adoption of GDPR CCTV data has become distinctly privacy sensitive. Subsequently, the criticality of systems storing CCTV data was revised (and increased), and access control measures need to be adapted accordingly. This impacted the governance of access to these systems, the periodical reviews on access, and the actual control measures in place for these systems. This discussion will cover key questions security professionals should address when considering access to such systems post GDPR.

Managing identies and access for employees has significant different characteristics than that of customers. In many organizations these two are separately handled. With the rise of connected devices, ranging from small to large in size, it becomes less obvious to separate management of these two populations. Or in other words, there are new ways to combine the management of identities and access of employees and customers.

This presentation will cover the similarities and differences between identity and access management (IAM) of employees and customers. We will then discuss the impact of connected devices for the user and for IAM solutions.

This scenario-based 90-minute workshop will take you through a Red Teaming exercise focused on identifying adversaries’ methods of operation to target the logical, physical and human gate of the organization. Red teaming, as part of a proactive security cycle, is an effective operational intelligence tool. It also helps to create awareness and need for the implementation of a program with counter measures. By discussing the necessary awareness and necessary response to cyber, physical and human related threats the workshop introduces the participants to a method of response preventing unnecessary victims. Awareness is the key word. At the end of this session participants will understand the potential “external” and “internal” threat, why it appears, and what counter measures are effective.

This session will take the form of a role-play training exercise where participants will be assigned into teams to address one of 5 security risk concerns from company executives.

Note – this exercise is in how to present the solution, not in judging the solution itself. Teams will be given a template PPT to create an executive presentation to propose a program based on the risk concern of a “company executive”. ESRM experts will engage teams in conversations about the approaches to executive presentations.

Teams will present their proposals to the “Executive Council” and will receive feedback on their presentation and engagement.

Important: participants should attend the prior “Engaging Business Executives in ESRM” session as preparation for the exercise.

This session will be led by Rachelle Loyear, Director of Program Management for Integrated Security Solutions, G4S.

Info-centric Crisis-management is a new way of thinking within one of the biggest corporate banks in the Netherlands. This ‘idea’ is about creating a new system for Crisis-management where we combine internal and external data sources to act in an early stage when a possible crisis is in sight. This system combines data with roles and responsibilities for those who have to act during a crisis. The system provides an automated choice for a certain scenario. The main goal is to act faster, and creating a Common Operational Picture (COP) and possibly to act before a crisis is hits.

Learn about a new, practical and easy to understand maturity model that can be implemented in hours rather than days.

What is your current security capability? How do you compare yourself against industry benchmarks? And where do you need to focus your efforts?

Maturity models aim to answer those questions and more, but unfortunately, most of them require expensive consultancy to implement and are often far too academic.

A more practical approach is clearly needed. This presentation is going to give you a maturity model that can be easily implemented in hours rather than days. A clear and visual way to easily understand the maturity of all areas of your security organization. You can now derive a clear roadmap that tells a compelling story and will help you obtain the necessary leadership buy in and additional resources for your program.

The talk will focus on ENISA's efforts to promote IoT cybersecurity by proposing baseline IoT security measures complemented with sectorial vertical studies that look into IoT security in particular sectors, e.g. Industry 4.0, automotive.

ENISA has been working with stakeholders across the board to address the many challenges of IoT security. ENISA advocates for a risk-based and context-based approach that looks into the particularities of sectorial IoT deployments and proposes specific security measures to address relevant risks. In parallel, understanding the ecosystem nature of IoT and the interdependencies, baseline IoT security recommendations have been proposed by ENISA to facilitate security interoperability in a horizontal manner. The talk will discuss related efforts and activities of ENISA and ways the community can engage with the Agency to further improve IoT cybersecurity.

For organisations whose employees undertake regular travel, Duty of Care is an important concern. In addition, multiple regulators oblige organisations to ensure reasonable travel security for employees. Travel Risk Management (TRM) assesses risk and provides security to staff. However there are no rules, or internationally recognised Codes of Practice, that indicate what should actually be done in order to be compliant.

ISO (International Organisation for Standardisation) has begun developing a standard which will resolve doubts and provide guidance, ISO 31030. ASIS is playing an active role in this.

Learn about work in progress and how you can have your say to ensure that the voice of the Security Profession is heard and acted upon.

The travel sharing economy, which comprises services such as ride-sharing and house-sharing, has quite literally taken off around the world. Ease of accessibility and use while mobile means non-traditional ground transport and accommodation services are increasingly being used by business travellers. Despite the popularity, only 14 % of organisations surveyed by Ipsos MORI and International SOS* have integrated this in their travel policy. Have you? Join this innovation track to understand the benefits, risks and legal considerations of incorporating share economy services into your business travel policies and how best to do so within a travel risk management framework.

* Business resilience. Trends Watch 2019; Ipsos MORI & International SOS; October 2018.

In October 2018, Ipsos MORI conducted a global survey targeted to those who organise, influence, or are responsible for, their organisation’s travel and risk mitigation policies. These survey findings represent responses from 640 people, across all types of organisations which have had previous contact relating to business travel health and security with International SOS, in 82 countries.

How close cooperation between corporate insurance and corporate security departments will make the management of security risks more effective and efficient.

There is common agreement among security and insurance professionals that security incidents are increasingly complex and global. Traditional insurance vehicles help indemnify the damage from such incidents. But to be able to successfully manage the velocity of security incidents anywhere around the world, companies require a level of expertise at immediate global readiness that companies realistically can’t maintain in-house.

The insurance industry has responded to this need for 'anywhere and anytime' immediate expert support, with a new insurance concept: Insurance as a Service. This new trend implies that security professionals and insurance professionals with their expertise and products are playing both an increasingly crucial role in ensuring the success in security incident response and related insurances.

In this inter-active workshop attendees will develop insight in the interplay between insurance and security and will walk away with practical tips on what to discuss with insurance professionals when purchasing insurance as a service.

What happens when we as individuals can not trust media in the same way we used to? Misleading media information during the attacks on Westgate Mall in Kenya, Drottninggatan in Stockholm and the Armed Conflict in Donbass Ukraine led to severe consequences. Social media as well as the increased commercialization and politization of traditional media present challenges to individuals and organizations. But this also present opportunities for actors in the security sphere and elsewhere.

Increasing complexity and continuous change of IT environments challenge organizations to gain transparency on their cyber security. The Cyber Security Maturity Assessment supports with a unique method to measure the maturity and effectiveness of cyber security measures and results are documented using the Cyber Security Maturity Cockpit. In addition it provides an overview of the cost-value ratio of identified measures based on ISO/IEC 27001. By creating transparency the Cyber Security Maturity Assessment enables decision-makers to take the right decisions for optimal use of human and monetary resources and to strengthen the cyber security resilience of the organization following a holistic approach.

CSMA enables organizations to answer questions like:
- What do we in relation to cyber security?
- How good are we with what we are doing?
- What does it cost?

Many enterprises have large corporate campuses where hundreds or thousands of employees work at various sites around the world. These sites are complex environments, characterized as open and minimally staffed by security resources. Given this, they are notoriously difficult to protect and vulnerable to active assailant and terrorist threats as evidenced by the recent attack on YouTube’s corporate headquarters in San Francisco, CA. Our universities around the world share similar attributes and have been investing in cutting-edge technology to help protect their staff and students. Attend this session to learn about their transformative advancements and fulfill your duty of care to your employees.

Diversity is a prominent challenge facing businesses today. Diversity has to be part of a company’s DNA – and it has to work as part of a company’s overall desire to hire the best possible people. Research shows that diversity makes workplaces more effective and efficient, plus a diverse workplace also promotes a company’s ability to adapt to any situation. In the panel, experienced security professionals from different countries and backgrounds will share their challenges and success stories. Furthermore, they will discuss diversity perspectives, experiences and skill sets that seem to be invaluable to the success of talent and to support modern business leaders.

Are we guilty of cloning security specialists? Young professionals entering the security industry may increasingly be the answer to changing the face of the sector.

The operational cog which turns the mechanism of the security industry is routinely led by the 'Grey, Pale and Male' from society. With the guidance of experienced security professionals, ASIS strives to bring through young professionals to the fore of the sector, which is spearheaded by James Morris in the UK. No less does David Clark, UK Chair of ASIS, hold this belief. He argues that we should not 'clone' our predecessors, but rather we should nurture younger professionals into a 'security culture'. Indeed, just as security is modernising and evolving into new frontiers such as cybersecurity and artificial intelligence, so too should the personnel who are increasingly managing it.
