The 2019 CISO Africa Conference welcomes Netskope as Lead Partner

Featuring more than 40 stellar local and international IT security speakers and more than 120 top-notch senior level attendees, the CISO Africa conference breaks down IT security leadership strategies and methodologies for South African and African businesses alike. Of key emphasis is the the evolving role of the CISO, emerging as an essential leader within modern business. Paired with this role is the growing concern for cloud security and the technology needed to monitor and eradicate threats in our increasingly connected mobile world.

On behalf of Netskope, Jacques Fouche, Telkom’s Senior Information Security Specialist, will deliver the opening keynote address at CISO Africa. Titled “Transforming Security —Telkom’s Approach to Cloud Adoption”, Jacques will discuss the cloud strategy Telkom is putting in place and the safeguards it is taking to protect its data. In addition, he will speak to some of the technology considerations, how CASB as a technology and as a function forms a fundamental component to a cloud adoption strategy.

As a globally recognised and highly regarded brand we are very pleased for them to join us.
