Presentation: InfoSec's Midlife Crisis [And What You Can Do About It]

Abstract
After 20 years of InfoSec & App Sec, it's clear that something is not working. We've been spending so much time & money we are still hit by a continuous stream of news and information about data losses and breaches positions the InfoSec industry in a unique situation. It also puts all of us security practitioners under the spotlight with everything to gain and lose. There was never a better time to take a deeper look into how we got here as an industry, what's working and what's not, and why it feels that we are failing. Obviously, we need to do something different, but what? How do we change the trajectory? Join us for a thought-provoking, disruptive view of our industry and what it means to your future as a risk and security professional.
