What do your peers spend on security software and services and which areas are growing fastest? Benchmark your budget and allocation with IANS' Security Software and Services 2025 Benchmark Report. IANS Faculty Dave Shackleford and Guillaume Ross will discuss: Budget allocation: Where CISOs prioritize spend today, and how that may change in 2026 Unified platforms: Why organizations are moving to unified platforms, who are the most trusted vendors and how to negotiate effective contracts MSSPs: What is their role in the security stack, who should be using them and best practices for structuring MSSP relationships

The leading cause of data breaches and security issues has been compromised credentials. These are the very things we rely on for solving security and they are the area most successfully attacked. Moreover, that trend is only intensifying as adversaries increasingly leverage GenAI in their attacks; data shows that ATO attempts have increased 46% between 2023 and mid-2025, largely driven by AI-enhanced phishing and social engineering attacks. In this webinar, IANS Faculty Gunnar Peterson offers new ways to think about our most foundational control, authentication, by looking at AuthN from a threat perspective.

The buzz around Agentic AI – the latest form of AI systems designed to autonomously make decisions and act – is rampant. As security leaders grapple to understand the nuances of this next wave of AI excitement, there are many considerations to take into account to determine if, where and how to experiment and accelerate its use within your environment. In this symposium, IANS Faculty cuts through the noise and shares practical insights and recommendations to aid your understanding of the technology, its risks and guardrails for adoption within your enterprise.

In this webinar, IANS Faculty offer key guidance, including: Involving the right people and earmarking the right resources Setting achievable project milestones, and knowing when implementation is over and usage/optimization begins Configuring the right metrics to ensure you gain value immediately and over time

This one-day event is designed for security practitioners to gain actionable technical solutions and leadership insights focused on current and emerging challenges. Engage with IANS Faculty members and network with peers who are tackling similar challenges.

AI is putting legacy data governance processes under a microscope. In response, a number of key frameworks are emerging to provide a foundation for orgs to use as a starting point. This session dives into the strategic and tactical steps to take to improve AI governance, regardless of which framework you choose, and provides a rundown of some of the most prominent AI governance frameworks.

IANS Faculty Jake Williams will discuss the alleged breach of Oracle’s Cloud involving a threat actor claiming to have stolen 6m records across 140,000 Oracle tenants. The alleged stolen data includes JKS files, encrypted SSO passwords, key files and enterprise manager JPS keys. Jake will discuss what we know and don’t know about this incident, the third-party-risk management (TPRM) concerns, what steps organizations should be taking and how CISOs should be communicating to their executive teams.
