One of the Good Ones: The 2024 Gartner Security and Risk Management Summit

Sometimes it's worth putting pants on. In this case, it's for the 2024 Gartner Security and Risk Management Summit. Despite previous criticisms of Gartner, Chris found the conference surprisingly enjoyable. In this episode, he provides an overview of the event, which featured over 150 sessions. One important keynote highlighted the unhelpful obsession with perfect IT security performance, emphasizing the need to focus more on recovery than prevention. Ned and Chris discuss the resulting industry burnout, which affects productivity and creativity. Other topics include evolving security behavior programs, AI and its risks, and the future impact of quantum technology.
