Key takeaways

Private companies face a growing accountability gap: Without the regulatory scrutiny public peers face, cyber posture often depends on internal will alone, even as frontier AI accelerates attacks and clients and investors demand proof of strong controls. Moving from reactive defense to proactive resilience can protect deal value and fuel growth. We’ll discuss:

  • Defining your organization’s risk tolerance and minimum viable company
  • Modernizing risk triage as frontier AI reshapes the threat landscape
  • Closing access gaps through multi-factor authentication rollout and executive controls
  • Building resilience through tabletop exercises and tested backups
