Resilient Security Architecture for Rising Geopolitical Risk


Course

Jacob Combs, CISO at Tandem Diabetes Care, explains why geopolitical risk has broken traditional security architecture assumptions - and how to build resilience for a world where trusted systems become attack paths.

Cyber risk has stopped behaving like a technical problem and started behaving like an operating condition. Ransomware, supply chain compromise, credential theft and state-linked disruption all look different on the surface - but inside the business, they create the same problem: the trusted systems, vendors and identities that organizations rely on become the attack path. Traditional controls, static risk registers and compliance checklists are not built for a threat environment where exploits arrive months before disclosures are even published.

This session, led by Jacob Combs of Tandem Diabetes Care, will cover:

  • Why the security question has shifted from "do we have the right controls?" to "what still works when trusted systems fail?";
  • How failure mode analysis across ransomware, supply chain, credential theft and state disruption scenarios builds a testable resilience model;
  • Why resilience must be proven - not planned - and what recovering while still under attack actually requires.
