Bhagyashree Thorat introduces the concept of a risk operations center (ROC) as a strategic counterpart to SOC, focusing on prioritizing high-impact actions and quantifying value at risk.
Today's CISOs aren't asked how many vulnerabilities they've patched - they're asked more fundamental questions: Are we secure? Are our cybersecurity investments working? Yet in today's increasingly fragmented security landscape, risk stems from a complex mix of siloed tools, overlapping extended security posture management functions, expanding cloud footprints and distributed remediation responsibilities. The result? More alerts, more noise and less clarity.
This session introduces the risk operations center (ROC), a strategic counterpart to the SOC that unifies risk signals, prioritizes high-impact actions and reframes cybersecurity as a business enabler rather than just a technical function. You will will learn how leading organizations are building their ROCs to shift from alert fatigue to focused risk control.
The session will cover:
- The role of an ROC, and how it complements the traditional SOC;
- How security leaders prioritize risk reduction over alert response;
- Strategies for aligning cybersecurity initiatives with broader business goals.
