As cloud attacks grow more dynamic and adversaries increasingly exploit runtime gaps, security leaders are being forced to rethink long-standing cloud security assumptions.
We’re bringing together a select group of CISOs and senior security leaders for a private, off-the-record executive dinner focused on the next evolution of cloud security: runtime as the live control plane for detection, context, and response.
Hosted by Francis Odum, Lawrence Pingree, and Aqsa Taylor, we explored how organizations are moving beyond static controls and fragmented tools toward security models built for modern cloud environments in 2026.
