The fireside chat we hosted with Christoph at the Gartner Risk Summit was enormously useful. It was great to hear Christoph outline his thoughts on the modern problems for security practitioners, and how AI has created a shift within the industry. We exceeded the capacity of the theatre the session took place with, and have had lots of substantive conversations with attendees in the follow up process. Thumb
