I don't sign off on risk waivers and I don't set the budgets. But, more often than not, I am the one who tells the CISO why their weekend plans are about to get ruined. The CISO's Gambit is a live strategy simulation where Threat Intelligence sets the scene and the audience drives the response. Drawing on the cyber roller coaster of the past 12 months, you get put in the hot seat of the one whose weekend is now also ruined. When a critical vendor is compromised, do you halt production or do "heightened monitoring" and pray. When the geopolitical mess spills over into cyber, do you change vendors or duck and cover. Through live audience voting, we track the real-world impact of your choices across key metrics. No slides. No safe paths. Just trade-offs, facepalms and high-fives through a collective decision-making experiment.
