About this talk

Swar Shah, Security Consultant at SecureLayer7, walked teams through how to evaluate cyber threats in a way the rest of the business can act on. This is the recording.

Most threat conversations stall at "we should patch more" because the cost of inaction is never quantified. A modern CISO needs evaluation methods that translate vulnerability data into expected loss, remediation priority, and defensible spend.

The session covers the threat landscape across insider, remote, and external actors, the methods that produce repeatable vulnerability and threat analysis, how to communicate security strategy across hierarchical levels, and the incident-control playbooks that contain damage when an attack does land.
