Our Impact

Impact Through Participation

CISOs Connect™ measures impact not simply by attendance, but by the quality of executive participation, the knowledge created, the relationships sustained, and the contribution made to the profession.

1,500+ CISOs Engaged

Since 2012, more than 1,500 cybersecurity executives have engaged through CISOs Connect™ communities, forums, research, recognition, and professional initiatives.

Five Recognition Programs

Our awards portfolio recognizes security leaders at different stages and in different markets while the CISO Choice Awards™ brings the CISO perspective directly to the evaluation of cybersecurity solutions.

Practitioner-Led Research

CISOs Investigate™ and CISO Pulse™ turn executive experience into useful, referenceable knowledge for the broader profession.

Executive Exchange

Forums are designed to surface what CISOs are actually seeing, deciding, questioning, and changing inside their organizations—not to reproduce conference presentations.

Global Reach

CISOs Connect™ brings together perspectives across North America, Europe, APAC, and other markets, creating opportunities to compare how common challenges manifest across regulatory and business environments.

Leadership and Legacy

Impact also means strengthening the profession over time: supporting executive development, documenting its history, recognizing contribution, and creating ways for experienced leaders to help shape what comes next.
