Inspire Your Audience
Sylvan shows how to turn cybersecurity at your advantage.
Choose a practitioner
There are many outstanding cyber influencers, experts and advisers out there. However, too often, speakers often fall short of:
- Deep recognition within one company but limited experience of industry practices, and almost inexistent for cross-industry.
- Big head or strong legs: cybersecurity governance and operations are not aligned.
- Cybersecurity obsessed: security is only a component - however important - of a company's cyberspace footprint or digital realm. Business is the Driver.
Choose to inspire your audience, small or big, experts, managers or general public!

Make Cybersecurity a Business Enabler
Cybersecurity may be seen as a cost center and afterthought
Increase alignment by empowering business and support functions. Seize more growth through cybersecurity and compliance embedded into the business products and services. Achieve true "cybersecurity by design".
Enable Cost-Effective Business Resilience
Cyber initiatives may be driven by IT perspective and lack focus. Costs raise exponentially for business recovery
Find Crown Jewels that really matters for security and resilience. Prepare for and accelerate business recovery in case of an adverse cyber event. Improve corporate security-cybersecurity cross collaboration for resilience.
Achieve Cyber Compliance At Scale
Compliance to local regulations can be done without a change of working practices. But global compliance to a series of extra-territorial regulations is a nightmare
Achieve digital and cybersecurity compliance at scale while reducing duplication of standards, control frameworks, software and other initiatives and supporting managerial controls.
Upgrade the Cybersecurity Culture
Commonsense such as phishing tests hurt the morale of staff. While studies found limited effectiveness of phishing tests.
Use the "Power of Simple Cyber" to Turn people into active defenders and extend detection as well as response capabilities. Realign roles and responsibilities for cyber across the enterprise. Improve managerial skills of cyber experts to achieve efficiency leaps.
