Upcoming Executive Roundtable
Architecting the Modern Security Stack: SOAR, SIEM & SOC Integration
Security practices don’t fail because of missing tools, they fail because those tools, processes, and teams were never designed to operate as a system.
This executive roundtable brings together CISOs and senior security leaders for an off-the-record discussion on how modern organizations are reducing noise, improving response velocity, and aligning SOAR, SIEM, and SOC operations around real outcomes, not vendor diagrams.
In a small, curated peer group, the conversation will focus on what’s working in the field: practical operating models, collaboration patterns, and architectural decisions that cut through complexity instead of adding to it. We’ll also explore how leaders are approaching foundational platforms — including federated search and cross-tool visibility — to help analysts find answers faster and act with confidence.
