2nd Annual Chief Security Officer (CSO) Summit 2008

Managing Security Risks Holistically to Protect People, Property & Profit

8th - 10th December 2008, Geneva - SWITZERLAND

THE UNIQUE EVENT FOR SECURITY DIRECTORS FROM BUSINESS & GOVERNMENT

Building on the success of the inaugural event held in Amsterdam last November, and supported by key industry groups and associations, the CSO Summit will again bring together security directors from across Europe, Africa and the Middle East to tackle the most critical and strategic security challenges at the highest business level. The focus is on the protection of your organisation's key assets – people, data and profitability and how you can elevate security to mitigate the latest world and business risks.

Via a prestigious international speaker panel, the programme will explore threats, vulnerabilities, mitigation strategies and techniques. Join experienced directors of corporate security to learn how they are managing the latest security challenges and how they are inspiring their teams. How can security influence and change Board behaviour? Where are the hidden traps of conducting operations in a high risk environment? When should you bring in forensic services to progress a security investigation? Is security integration realistic? Where is the security role heading? These are just some of the questions that will be answered in Geneva by a prestigious international speaker panel.

MIS have hand picked an international speaker line up to provide you with key advice on the current and future threats that you face.
