Board members and business leaders who have joined the conversation at Talk to the Board.

“The emerging consensus from Talk to the Board was how challenging it is for CISOs to present cyber risk to the board in an intelligible way for non-technical people. The challenge for the board is then to understand that and take action. Having a plan prioritising, getting the basics right, not trying to do everything or running off in different directions demands some follow through, both by boards and CISOs. It’s great to have board and CISO side of the equation together at this event. It shows the maturity of the board-CISO relationship that we’re having much better conversations about this now than we were 10 years ago.”

Robert Hannigan, Chairman, BlueVoyant, Former Director, GCHQ (UK)

“Cybersecurity started to appear as a postscript on the board agenda a few years ago. However, as concern over data breaches and their serious consequences has gained momentum, the priority level has increased. Today it should be top of the agenda, especially for consumer facing omnichannel businesses which rely on consumer confidence and customer data.”

Laura Tenison MBE, Founder & Director, Wonderful Escapes. Former Founder & CEO, JoJo Maman Bébés

“It was a really interesting panel and great to meet people from across the cybersecurity profession and to hear their concerns and to help them to understand all the different issues that Boards need to deal with and where cybersecurity may rank in their list of priorities.”

Lorraine Heggessey, Former Controller, BBC 1

“I wanted to be part of the Talk to the Board event because I’ve always been so fascinated by technology, particularly what it brings on the dark side – the dark underbelly of technology being cyber attacks and the cyber risk. Being from the world of insurance, I was hoping to share some of my experience with assessing risk and managing risk because, fundamentally, this is what the CISOs are trying to do. I think they’re doing an amazing job, but cybercriminals are always faster and quicker than any of us, so we must stay alert. From this event, I’ve learnt more about how lonely and vulnerable the CISO feels. I’ve been a CEO a few times and always felt the CEO took the can for everything. I thought then that people working lower in the organisation wouldn’t feel so vulnerable. But I was hearing that from some of the attendees, and as boards, we need to think about how we can be more of a support for them so that they don’t feel so lonely and perhaps under threat. If your world is looking at cyber risk and you’re a CISO, I would come to this event and get involved because you are sharing and gaining simultaneously.”

Dame Inga Beale, Former CEO, Lloyd’s of London

“A rich discussion with very interesting themes emerging for myself. Both the audience and panel found the event very interesting and informative.”

Jeremy Schwartz, Former CEO, The Body Shop, Pandora and Conival plc, Current Chairman Sustainability and Inclusion Practice, Kantar

“I’m pleased to attend Talk to the Board. As somebody who has been on the receiving end of a cybersecurity incident, I know how devastating cyberattacks can be and how they affect the team and the ability to trade. Cybersecurity is a subject that boards should take much more seriously. To be in a room full of engaged people, but perhaps working in organisations that are not yet taking it as seriously as it should be, I hope that listening to us – board members – will give them more ammunition to make themselves heard. I’m pleased that Pulse put these conferences on.”

Josephine Fairley, Co-Founder, Green & Black’s

“We must stop thinking of CISOs as somehow in this satellite going around the world who are only pointed at when something goes wrong. We need to bring them into the fold. They need to start educating and bringing the rest of the workforce. Clearly, they are suffering from burnout and stress, and that’s because they’re up against it; they are playing a game of “whack-a-mole”. It’s time for CISOs to redefine their purpose.”

Daniel Bobroff, Former Co-Founder, ASOS Ventures

“It wasn't just a conference. It was a life experience.”

CISO, Channel 4

“Amazing event, a lot of shared knowledge and memorable opportunities in great spots!”

Miguel Ferreira, CISO, Multinational Corporation (Portugal)

“Love how global the conversation is at CISO 360 Americas!”

William Lin, Venture Partner, Forgepoint (California, United States)

“CISO 360 UKI was one of the most valuable cybersecurity events I’ve attended. What stood out was the quality of conversation. Honest, practical, and grounded in real-world experience. No noise, no generic messaging, just leaders sharing what is actually happening inside organisations today. The panel discussions, particularly around security team morale and resilience, reflected challenges many of us are facing. It created space for open dialogue on prioritisation, leadership, and how we build sustainable security functions. The networking was equally strong. Meaningful conversations with peers, new connections, and shared insights that extend beyond the event itself. A well-run event that brings the right people together to focus on what matters. My biggest takeaway was the importance of decision clarity. Security teams are not only stretched by workload, but by unclear priorities and ownership. The organisations that are making progress are the ones aligning security with business outcomes and making deliberate, informed risk decisions.”

Malcolm Kafesu, Global IT Security & Governance Manager, Ontic Engineering & Manufacturing

“The conference was a congregation of true leadership across the speaker and attendees. Vendors were respectful of the ethos of the event and supported having thought-provoking conversations. The presentations were engaging, well-balanced, and covered a large breath of relevant and timely topics. This was a wonderful conference with the attendees made to feel valued and included throughout the event. The overwhelming unity of the collective community, and joint appreciation to resilience being key.”

Margus Lind, Vulnerability Management and Assurance Lead, Tesco Bank / Barclays

“I found it really insightful, to see and hear from so many CISOs was great”

James Hardy, Senior Security Assurance Manager, OVO Energy

“One of the most insightful conferences for security professionals, focusing on top class sessions and panels, embedding vendors to provide actual knowledge rather than sales pitches”

Danielle Sudai, Security Operations and Automation Manager, Deliveroo

Allan Alford, CISO, TrustMAPP and Host of The Cyber Ranch Podcast (United States)

CISO, Engie (France)

“CISO 360 Global Congress is the congress for CISOs and senior cybersecurity practitioners to attend. The scope of topics presented is excellent!”

CISO, DPO and Director of the Internal Control Office, Comissão do Mercado de Valores Mobiliários, Portugal

“CISO 360 is the perfect balance between working, socialising, and networking. So the appealing thing about coming here is you get to meet a load of people that you wouldn’t normally get in front of, so there’s some smaller vendors who if you Google certain area they’re probably not going to come up in the first page and you get to meet them and they get to tell you about their interesting new take on the technology, and you get to do it in a really nice setting, it’s a lovely hotel, the events that Pulse put on outside of the hotel are really good, where you get to socialise with people and after a couple of drinks they kind of tell you a bit more truthfully what their products can do which is really, really useful. And then you get to do the follow-on, the boring stuff where they take you through a slide deck in London afterwards, so you get to meet them properly first, and then learn about the bumph that they’ve got from their sales team afterwards so that’s really cool.”

Security Operations Manager, Right Move

“Great conference! From the beginning, the level of participant engagement was very high. The content was very informative and the presenters very knowledgeable. Every aspect of Global CISO 360 was extraordinarily well done. I left the event with a better understanding of cybersecurity and a broader network of industry contacts.”

Senior Director Security, Atlas Air (United States)

“Superb line-up of speakers and topics! The sequence of the ’roundtable’ at beginning, prior to ‘sitting down’ at the conference, was a very good ‘icebreaker’, socially, and this allowed us to get to know one another well. Content and organization made this an excellent event!”

CISO, Infopercept (UK)

“What I like about this CISO 360 conference is the peer interaction, the themes that we discuss here that are very relevant, the chance to speak openly in a way that you know that people will understand your problems and give you ideas. You can give something back and contribute to what could be the global outcome of the conference. It’s a sum of all the contributions, both people that do the presentations, the questions, the comments that we make. These things are all relevant, the speakers are well chosen, they are respected professionals on their fields, and the organisation is top, and the venue is always very beautiful place, everything is well organised so it’s highly recommended. Every time I attend CISO 360, I meet new people, there are faces that I see from year to year, some well-known. You see people from Asia, from America, from Europe, it’s mainly a European event but you see people coming from other continents, and it’s a very friendly modern atmosphere where people are at ease, everyone respects each other and we know that we can trust these people, we can share our problems, the questions we have, and there’s someone that went through the same thing and can give us an idea of what to do. I’m leaving with lots of new ideas for things that I want to implement and experiment, so that’s why I came, and that’s why people should come to these conferences, it’s great.”

Director of the Internal Control Office, Comissão do Mercado de Valores Mobiliários

“One of the few must-not-miss events for every CISO. Wonderful opportunity to learn new things, and have in-depth discussions on what really matters, with real practitioners and industry legends (still alive).”

CISO & DPO, 360 Treasury Systems AG, Germany

“A very thoughtful event, great networking and industrial expertise in the room to learn from!”

Director, Security, Laureate International Universities Malaysia

“Insights and experience shared by industry leaders will definitely help me and my organisation in course correcting the strategy”

Senior Cybersecurity, Lafarge Holcim

“Pulse always delivers the very best events so the fact that this event was impeccably organised wasn’t a surprise. But the fact they delivered such an excellent event at this time with the various rule changes and restrictions placed on them was truly surprising. The team showed great strength of character and the ability to innovate. It was a super event and fun too.”

CEO, Cordery

“Great venue, great speakers, well-chosen themes. Overall, one of the best cybersecurity conferences I ever attended.”

CISO, DPO and Director of Internal Controls, Comissão do Mercado de Valores Mobiliários, Portugal

“Once you attend CISO 360, you become a part of the family. The socialising offered is the most important aspect. This community building through shared experiences makes it different from other conferences!”

CISO, Head of Information Security and Assurance Services ILO – United Nations, Switzerland

“It is hard to describe what an amazing experience it was to attend, in person, a conference after such a long time. From impeccable and reassuring preconference comms to a beautiful indoor and outdoor setting, excellent speakers and audience engagement, surprisingly unobtrusive vendors where productive conversations were held, without all the sales hype. It will certainly be a conference I will not forget and setting a standard with which, I will hold other conferences to.”

Global Deputy CISO, Cushman & Wakefield

“The people are amazing. CISO 360 gathers the best of the best – the organisations that came here, the speakers are fantastic, the vendors that we can speak to about the products are great. It’s really hard to say no to Sara, Clive and the team. I absolutely love them. The talks have been fantastic and piqued my interest. The most interesting contact has been about management, case studies, third-party risk, and AI. The camaraderie that is achieved through the social networking events is fantastic. We went out on the catamaran and, to be honest, I thought I was going to be sick, mainly because of the boat, but it was still so good. Afterwards the meal sponsored by Qualys was fantastic. These are the smallest things that Pulse do for individuals such as myself that they don’t need to do, but they go out of their way just to make us feel comfortable, especially in a new city as well I’ve never been to before, so massive thanks for that.”

VP Information Security EMEA, Northern Trust

“It’s probably one of the best conferences for cybersecurity professionals. We really get to exchange information with other professors and peers in this industry, we build trust among us in this inclusive environment. We can exchange not only challenges, but celebrate the successes as well. And I would come back any time. We build not only trust and become friends, but also become part of the family. For CISOs it’s one of the most important things. Everybody expects CISOs to be very technical, and we are, but I believe that being very good on the soft skills is vital as well, and building that network is one of the most important things because CISOs cannot work alone. It’s almost impossible that you will know every single answer, so the networking is probably the most important thing in our field to pick up the phone, to say: “Hey, are you having the same challenge, how are you doing things around these problems or issues?” It really does help, and it’s proven itself over and over again. I use the CISO 360 network and call people. Besides information sharing, besides the fact that we all have become friends and family here, I would say we also have great evening events, which is how we build a stronger connection. CISO 360 is the place to be. I recommend it to all of our professionals in cybersecurity.”

CISO European Investment Bank

“This is a very good event for meeting CISOs, security professionals, and the vendors to learn more about what is going on, their challenges, and how to deal with them. This event has a number of really amazing speakers. Some of them have been in this industry for a long, long, long time, they have a broad variety of experiences, they share these experiences and they are still today trying to learn the next thing. There are three big benefits to attending CISO 360. The networking is one. You need to be able to share what you know and learn from others. The content from the stage is a second one, obviously, and the third one is the social aspect. We have a boat trip and wine tasting. Work is fine, but you also need to be personal, you need to bring those connections in because you never know when you need to pick up that phone and say: “Hey, I have this issue, I don’t know who to discuss it with, but I trust you.”

CEO and Founder, Praxis Security

“Thank you for the excellent event and seamless organisation! It was my first time at the CISO 360 and the event was highly inspiring with great networking opportunities.”

Senior Consultant, DHC AG (Switzerland)

“I keep coming back to CISO 360, because I learn so much. There is such a breadth of information, people from right across all sorts of industries, and organisational titles. The breadth of the agenda is just amazing, and it’s really fascinating, and so I keep coming back because I want more. I’ve learned so much in the last couple of days about all sorts of different topics, from the really scary from Dr. Sally Leivesley’s presentation to areas about recruiting people, and what makes up a good team, and data governance. There is such a plethora of information, it’s impossible to do without CISO 360, so I come back for more – and I’ll be back next year. I think the atmosphere in this group is really open, it’s very friendly, they’re very welcoming. We like people, we talk to people, and nobody was left alone at the networking events. It’s a very inclusive group, and we welcome new people coming along because we want new experiences, we want to talk to new people. The really good thing about this group is that you can come along and have a really easy conversation about information security, cybersecurity, anything to do with security because this is a really knowledgeable audience, and it makes it easy and it’s very relaxed, you don’t have to fight anybody, everybody understands. It’s simply great.”

Head of Information Security, Quilter

“It was a wonderful event. So good to start to be able to talk to people face to face and to be able to think outside of the “day-to-day responsibilities” box again.”

Information Security Manager – Awareness and Behavioural Change, Metro Bank plc, United Kingdom

“What a week! Such a lovely venue, lovely city, and a fantastic collective of like-minded professionals. This was my first Annual CISO Congress, but not my first Pulse event, and Pulse did not fail to deliver their exceptional services once again. Sara and the team did a wonderful job, and pulled everything off brilliantly.”

Threat and Vulnerability Consultant, Computacenter, United Kingdom

“The company and the thought-provoking sessions over the course of the conference have been fantastic. It has made me think about cyber risks and resilience in a different way. The Pulse Conferences team puts this together from the heart.”

A very worthwhile investment of my time and I hope the conference continues to grow.”

Technology Services Head of Cyber Security, DWP (UK)

“Pulse Conferences delivered a really enjoyable, informative and immersive experience with the CISO 360 Congress.

This was complimented with case studies from selected top tier partners and organisations to provoke further debate and discussion during the talks or later during one to one networking conversations. The presentations; case studies; and strategy sessions were practical and relevant because they were born out real world security challenges faced by Global CISOs across multiple sectors. I found the open knowledge sharing; networking; and presentations were very valuable to either validate existing approaches or provoke fresh ideas by getting a different perspective.”

This event was 1st class from the meet and greats from the Pulse team, great food, drink, music and service. Pulse team managed to give everyone a piece of their time and make everyone feel welcomed.

The level of peer engagement was also representative of the conference advertising and proves to be a high value event in terms of networking. Well done Pulse.”

Corporate security, resilience and intelligence leaders at CSO 360 congresses.

Azhary Saleh, ASCC Manager, The Walt Disney Company (Singapore)

“I felt it was a great session for networking and some of the presentations were helpful in identifying some emerging trends that we might experience in security”

David Brooks, Head of Physical Security – EMEA, Northern Trust (UK)

“Last week, I attended the 9th CSO 360 Global Congress in Prague, organized by Pulse Conferences. It was a fantastic event, that gave me some new valuable connections, fascinating insights on geopolitical issues and challenges, in a unique atmosphere!”

Michail Kamprianis, Director CyberSecurity, Hexagon AB (Czech Republic)

“Excited to have participated in the 9th CSO360 Global Congress in Prague. A big thank you to Pulse Conferences and all the speakers for creating a trusting space for collaboration and knowledge-sharing.

I left Prague energized, with fresh strategies in mind for the year ahead.”

Diana-Elena Macovei, Intelligence Advisor, Emerson (Romania)

“Last week I attended The 9th CSO360 Global Congress in Prague, which is a city to fall in love with in Christmas time.

This was my fourth and final in-person event of 2025, and by far the most exciting and valuable one. I connected with many peers and great leaders. Discussing about their daily challenges and thought processes was both challenging and eye-opening.

The sessions which resonated with me most were Security Team Culture & Leadership, Why Soft Skills Define CSO Success, and A Day In The Life Of A CSO.

Thank you Pulse Conferences for having me in this event as a speaker, where we shared our insights on the rising threat of AI deepfakes targeting our organizations and the public. I am looking forward to future events of CISO and CSO in 2026.”

Salpi Stojan, Cybersecurity Project Manager, Vivicta (Czech Republic)

“Honoured to have represented the International Assistance Group at the 9th CSO 360 Global Congress in Prague last week. As one of the younger participants in the room, it was a remarkable experience to join discussions on resilience, geopolitical trends, AI in security, and crisis response. Hearing practitioners share real challenges made the event particularly meaningful. Grateful to IAG for the opportunity, and to Pulse Conferences for creating such a welcoming environment. Looking forward to applying these insights in our work, and to staying connected with the many brilliant people I met along the way!”

Sila Ceyhan, Risk & Assistance Coordination, International Assistance Group (France)

“An absolute pleasure to close the CSO360 Congress for Pulse Conferences in Prague this week, with War Stories from a Social Engineer, and so good to speak to people who don’t find the word convergence offensive!

Maybe a live on stage RFID card clone attack next year (and I promise that it won’t take a billion, billion years..)?

Fascinating subjects, great content and even better people.”

James Mason, Attack Simulation, NCC Group (UK)

“Thank you to all at Pulse Conferences for a superb event in Prague last week, fantastic connections, river cruise and keynote speakers…what a location!”

“I was delighted to attend my first CSO 360. I found it inspiring and motivating, offering fresh perspectives on security leadership. The Global Congress highlighted how security transcends traditional boundaries – whether protecting priceless artefacts or managing complex AI implementations. The question that resonated most was: ‘How do you bring value to your organisation?’ This provocation aligns perfectly with our mission at the Met, where we’re transforming security culture through innovative approaches. The diversity of attendees and the quality of discussions makes this event unique. I’ve already recommended CSO 360 to other cultural institutions in New York City, as I don’t think they can miss the next one. It’s an invaluable opportunity to connect with like-minded professionals while thinking differently about common challenges.”

Regina Lombardo, Chief Security Officer, Metropolitan Museum of Art (United States)

“Most conferences remain regionally focused, but CSO 360 truly delivers global perspectives. The discussions about US election impacts and geopolitical shifts were particularly enlightening for those of us managing security across international operations. Having attended twice now, I’ve found the congress invaluable for understanding how global companies navigate different regional contexts. The mix of strategic insights and practical knowledge makes this event – which I’ve attended twice, now – stand out. It’s rare to find a forum where security leaders from the US, Europe, and beyond can engage so openly.”

Alberto Gallardo, Security Manager, The Walt Disney Company (Spain)

“For those of us in the United Nations system, and beyond, CSO 360 offers refreshingly different perspectives. The Global Congress revealed how, despite our different sectors, we share many common security challenges. The format encourages open dialogue and knowledge-sharing in a remarkably constructive atmosphere. What struck me most was seeing how different industries approach similar problems – it’s a win-win learning experience. The combination of subject matter experts and practical case studies makes this event particularly valuable for security leaders looking to broaden their horizons. I live and work in Rome, so it was great that CSO 360 was here.”

Maria Victoria Montalvo, Deputy Director, World Food Programme (Italy)

“As someone relatively new to security industry events, I found CSO 360’s blend of formal sessions and informal networking particularly effective. The Global Congress bridges generational perspectives, ensuring younger professionals have a voice alongside seasoned leaders. The opening keynote, delivered by the BBC’s Frank Gardner, and the predictions panel were especially valuable for understanding how security trends might shape future news cycles. The informal atmosphere encourages genuine dialogue and relationship-building, making complex security topics more accessible for industry newcomers.”

Agnese Boffano, Breaking News Editor, Factal (UK)

“The CSO 360 Global Congress operates at exactly the right strategic level, making it perfect for security leaders navigating the transition to senior management. The AI discussions particularly resonated. These sessions emphasised the importance of maintaining core analytical skills while embracing new technologies. What sets CSO 360 apart is its focus on strategic thinking and future challenges. There’s a real opportunity to develop the next generation of security leaders here, perhaps through dedicated sessions for emerging managers. The event encourages active participation and genuine peer engagement, making it invaluable for professional development. The Rome event was my first, and I was happy to get involved. I will be bringing more of my colleagues next time.”

Andrew Pratt, Deputy Head of Situation Intelligence Analysis, Siemens (Germany)

“I loved my first CSO 360. I followed the 2022 edition in Istanbul on LinkedIn and saw very positive comments from the community. The mixture is right. You’ve got security practitioners and outside providers. Sometimes, with Germans, we do get focused on facts and data. But having the British influence and a bit more light-hearted approach makes it a worthwhile conference here. I lived in Berlin for nearly ten years and had never had the opportunity to eat in the Reichstag before – what a treat.”

Carolin Jameson, Head of Business Resilience, Siemens Healthineers

“Yet another fabulous event from the awesome, tireless Pulse team! Speed dating was great for both the sponsors and delegates, with plenty of time and the evenings to continue the introductions”

Charles White, Partner, Kaseware (Estonia)

“Fantastic for implementable learnings and networking!”

Sybil Kleinmichel, Managing Director, Commerzbank (Germany)

“My first time at the CSO 360 Congress has been an absolute triumph. There’s a huge cross-section of speakers and a genuinely international audience. Hence, you gain deep perspectives. Some good socialising also goes with it, where you can meet and build relationships without necessarily talking about business. The setting here in Berlin has been spectacular – not least at dinner in the German Parliament. If you are a CSO or a CISO, I think it’s certainly worth attending – it’s probably the most informative event of this type I’ve been to. If you are a consultant or someone who works with the C-suite, I think it’s hugely important to be here because you’re meeting the people who are often the gatekeepers who are often difficult to get to know and meet outside of these events.”

CEO and Founder, Defuse

“It’s my first time at CSO 360, and I came because of the topics on the agenda and the people attending. There were exciting speakers at the conference, especially the keynotes on both days. I will make the time to attend next year to see even more fantastic people from all around the world, speak with other people, hear their concerns, and learn from them.”

CSO, WML (The Netherlands)

“It is an absolute privilege to come here and speak at CSO 360. The audience’s engagement level was very high. During the coffee break afterwards, I couldn’t move because so many people wanted to learn more, which shows what the community is like. They’re a great group from a diverse range of industries and companies. I’ll be back next year.”

CEO, The Association of Corporate Investigators

“I’ve heard many good things about CSO 360 over the years. Many CSOs I know have almost become CSO 360 groupies and talk about it in such fun terms. There has been some excellent content, and I’ve taken a lot of notes. And also there’s a nice social atmosphere as well. We’ve done some fun things in the evening. So it’s a nice mix of work and then a bit of downtime.”

Co-Founder and CEO of The Clarity Factory

“This is my first time at CSO 360. I wanted to connect with other individuals passionate about improving the quality and efficiency of the products they’re providing for their firms. I’ve had an absolutely amazing time and a long list of highlights. This includes connecting with other professionals looking at the same issues from various perspectives. The boat cruise and the dinner at the Reichstag were also amazing. The networking here has been unique and incredibly valuable.”

Director of Training, Emergent Risk International

“I have really enjoyed the online version of the congress, would go as far as saying it exceeded my expectations. Some really top notch speakers, high level of interactivity and engagement, brilliant multichannel participation opportunities.”

Security Director, Melia Hotels International (UK)

“What a successful conference. It’s been brilliant. The quality of the conversation and the delegates were amazing. The networking is unrivalled. The hospitality is superb. Thanks, Germany, for a wonderful event. It just gets better and better and better every year. And I cannot impress on people enough how you need to be at the next conference in 2024.”

Chief Education & Development Officer – Association of Corporate Investigators (ACi)

“This conference is very different from any other one I’ve been to because it’s bigger, there’s more to do, a huge range of topics, and everyone’s lovely. I had a great time in the evenings. As a vendor in the security recruitment space, we have had lots of people coming up to us. We’re here, we’re networking, getting to know people and telling people about our opportunities as well. I would definitely recommend CSO 360 to other people. I’ve learnt a lot over the past few days, spoken to interesting people and had a great time.”

Sponsors and partners

Companies that have sponsored and partnered with Pulse events.

“The CISO 360 Congress provided a unique platform to explore the delicate balance between innovation and practical implementation in cybersecurity. As a startup founder, I found the discussions on DevSecOps challenges and the evolving role of CISOs particularly enlightening. One key takeaway was the constant tension between designing for scale and the risk of over-engineering. In the startup world, we must be agile, forward-thinking, and grounded in current market needs. The debates around Generative AI highlighted this balance perfectly. These events are crucial for widening our horizons and engaging in insightful discussions with peers. They remind us that while pushing the boundaries of technology, we must always keep sight of the practical challenges security leaders face in their day-to-day operations. This blend of innovation and practicality will drive our industry forward.”

CTO and Co-Founder, JIT (Israel)

“One of the biggest challenges in our industry is gaining access to open conversations with CISOs without prior introductions. Cold calling and traditional outreach methods often fall short. However, events like CISO 360 create an environment where everyone is approachable, solving this challenge elegantly. The casual atmosphere fosters open dialogue, allowing us to understand CISOs’ current challenges and how we can help. It’s not just about selling; it’s about building meaningful connections. These events provide a unique opportunity to engage in positive conversations and establish good relationships that lead to fruitful collaborations.”

GemServ, a Talan Group company (UK)

“It’s been fantastic to see innovation and start-ups feature at CISO 360 for the first time. It’s good to see that the CISOs are genuinely interested and coming to talk to us. One of the big pluses of this event is that it’s not all jam packed into one day, and there isn’t that intense hard sell aspect that you typically see, which obviously puts people off. It’s been really good to take things more gently to get to know CISOs and vice versa.”

CTO, Quod Orbis

“I’ve really enjoyed the conference, I’ve enjoyed meeting people, learning more about what’s top of mind for CISOs and in the cybersecurity space. The sessions have all been great. There is a great CISO 360 community, it’s very tightly knit – we talk to each other a lot, share a lot of experiences, and that’s fantastic.”

Chief Scientist and SVP of AI, Dataminr

“We’ve been with Pulse and the CISO 360 since it started, and it’s been an amazing journey and we’ve created this community and this family, we see new faces, the same faces. And one of the issues we have in our industry is the lack of communication, the lack of talking, so these events are bringing people, bringing our peers out to have those talks, it’s great for vendors, it’s great for the community. If another vendor is thinking about joining this community do it. There is a fantastic community. We get to talk between the vendors as well, meet new people, see old friends, and how they are progressing through the industry as well – they may have moved, gone to new roles, new jobs, new organisations, and it’s great to see them transitioning. So we learn an awful lot as well as the customers do from learning from what we have as a vendor. We talk about diversity an awful lot in this industry and I think Pulse has managed to grab that with its agenda and its itinerary, there is something for everybody throughout the two days, through the day and through the evening as well and I think that’s one of the reasons why it captures such a wide range of audience, it’s because we are talking about so many different topics that are burning, these are topics that customers and vendors are having internally, so Pulse is giving you the opportunity to bring them out and allow people to talk about them.”

CTO UK, Qualys

“It’s a really cool event, a lot of CISOs come to these events and it’s quite a small little community where they all do a lot of learning and a lot of conversations. As a start-up, CISO 360 is a great way to meet people and build relationships within the industry. As a start-up, we don’t have the marketing budgets of big companies, so for us relationships are really important, we need to build trust with the CISOs, they need to trust us before using our products, and that was a really great way to come to an event like this, meet CISOs, teach them a bit about what we’re doing and what we’re trying to achieve with our mission and then from there hopefully get a few using the product. Gather feedback on our products has been really good for two reasons, firstly we’ve got a lot of constructive feedback on what we’re doing, what we’re trying to achieve, and actually new ways which we can achieve that, and secondly we’ve got a lot of people who are willing to try the product and actually join the trial and get using it. It’s a very well organised event with really friendly people. It’s always a great venue as well – they rotate it around different cities and it’s always nice to come to a different part of the world and meet people in a setting that’s not London.”

CEO, Risk Ledger

“This is my first time at a Pulse event, Talk to the Board. It’s been so fruitful and fantastic. I particularly enjoyed the 1-2-1 speed meetings. We covered a lot of ground in a short time. We’ve met some great new contacts, and I’d definitely come again.”

Holly Steele, Senior Vice President EMEA & UK, BlueVoyant

“The key take-away of CISO 360 is the calibre of the individuals who attend. I’ve done these events over many years and I’m incredibly impressed with the team. They pulled this off brilliantly! I’ve had conversations with people who have budge, make decisions and who want to know about cybersecurity technologies that Mastercard cyber intelligence has.”

John Quinn, EMEA Strategic Alliances Director, Mastercard

“Pulse creates a unique environment for us to interact with the senior leadership team in our customer base and to prospect around new clients. Because of the unique environment people are much more open to talking and discuss issues. If this was a formal business environment it would be impossible for us to do that so thanks. It’s a fantastic event for us! Pulse has exceeded expectations again - we even get to socialise with CISOs on boat trips!”

Matt Middleton-Leal, Managing Director EMEA North, Qualys

“Pulse Conferences’ events – the most informative, interactive and engaging event I have ever participated in.”

EMEA Platform Director, SailPoint

“Excellent value for me and my organisation. Being able to engage senior level execs in the cybersecurity space on a 1-1 basis is invaluable. The evening activities were entertaining and really helped build trust and relationships.”

Director, SailPoint

“Being able to moderate the panel, have great discussions across such an amazing landscape with so many different security leaders is great. The 1-2-1 meetings were really special. We’ve had a lot of amazing profound conversations, hearing about their worlds, their challenges across global security and the threat landscape, understanding further how we can help support people in some of those areas”

Sara Pratley, SVP Global Intelligence, AlertMedia

“CSO 360 is fantastic. A great way to engage with CSOs and our key message at this event has been how do we bring software and data back to the heart of the security and resilience industry and the result has been fantastic. Pulse has done a fantastic job in bringing everyone together and we look forward to future events and to continuing the discussion.”

Botan Osman, CEO, Restrata

“Great to be back at another CSO 360 event! It’s been superb. We’ve done a lot of networking with our friends and partners at the networking events in the evenings. Lots of great conversations have come from it and I’m already looking forward to next year.”

Andrew Devereux, Risk Intelligence Officer, Healix

“We’ve been sponsoring Pulse CSO 360 for a number of years. The reason we really like this event is the great people that come. It’s a great audience for us. Fantastic to be able to network, share ideas and to speak to people in the industry about the issues of the day and the shared things we all face. That’s been fantastic for us over the years. The other thing that sets this apart from the others is the fun element of engaging together. The Pulse team is very good at making sure you get the most out of the event in terms of building the relationships and connecting. Incredibly value, a lot of fun!!”

Justin Crump, CEO, Sibylline

“As a newcomer to the cybersecurity event scene, CISO 360 was an eye-opener. I expected a highly technical environment but instead found a deeply human-centric experience. It revealed the true challenges and struggles that CISOs face daily. This insight is invaluable for someone in my role, as it helps bridge the gap between our products and the real-world needs of security leaders. The event’s structure, starting with a candid roundtable discussion, set the tone for the entire conference. It allowed us to view subsequent presentations and discussions through the lens of solving real problems.”

Regional Executive, KnowBe4 (The Netherlands)

“Extremely insightful talks and a great way to connect with others in the industry that fostered genuine and open discussions”

Cyber and Geopolitical Risk lead, Sibylline (UK)

“A great experience – I liked the fact that the Pulse team had the energy to support and make this such an experience – everyone was friendly and there to support when needed”

Senior Account Executive, Hack the Box (Greece)

“As vendors, we’re often seen as just another salesperson despite our genuine desire to help improve the industry. Events like CISO 360 are invaluable for fostering connections. They open doors to future introductions, lunches, and even inclusion in specialised groups. These connections are the foundation of true industry collaboration. Interestingly, the most effective collaboration often happens off the record – in WhatsApp groups, over coffee, or during casual lunches. These spaces allow security professionals to share challenges without fear of oversharing or repercussions. To truly advance our industry, we need to encourage more of these human-to-human interactions.”

COO, Risk Ledger (UK)

“A meticulous and engaging event highlighting the key security concerns business leaders face today!”

Director, Bestman Solutions

“Where else can you find a higher quality of security leaders all in one place?”

Director, Bestman Solutions

“It was great to watch live interviews rather than recorded presentations. The roundtable session on Friday was particularly interesting”

CMO, Vectra

“Team Pulse put together a fantastically well organised and thoroughly enjoyable event this year in Rome. The CISO 360 Pulse Conference was most informative, engaging and gave us a great opportunity for learning, networking and relationship building. Looking forward to the next one.”

CMO, Synack

“An excellent event in beautiful Rome! I had an amazing time socially and professionally… made so many great connections!”

Director Sales, Sailpoint

“The event brought together practitioner-led discussions on geopolitical risk, operational resilience, the complexities of AI, and crisis management. The openness with which people shared real challenges and lessons learned made the conversations genuinely insightful. I’m back home with new ideas, great connections, and an appreciation for the security community’s willingness to share and collaborate. Huge thanks to Pulse Conferences for creating such an engaging and welcoming environment!”

Bérénice Cabanne, Insider Risk Adviser, Signpost Six (The Netherlands)

“A terrific couple of days at CSO360 last week catching up with old contacts and meeting some new ones. Great conversations across the board, both in the formal sessions and informally in the breaks and dinners. Well done CSO360, you’re building a tremendous community at your events and look forward to Copenhagen next year!”

Tim Willis, VP Partnership & Strategic Accounts, Restrata (UK)

“As Platinum Sponsors, we spent three intensive days engaging with the world’s leading CSOs, focusing on the critical talent and intelligence needed to navigate today’s complex threat landscape. The value of candid, peer-driven conversation at this level is irreplaceable. We leave Prague re-energized and with a deeper understanding of the skills and leaders required to drive resilience in 2026 and beyond! As always, a massive thank you to Pulse Conferences for putting together another great event.”

Chris Meager, Co-Founder, Enteles Search (UK)

“We aren’t just doing this Pulse event but we did their New York event at the beginning of the year and we are also signed up to the CISO 360 in Singapore later this year. For me this has been a great opportunity to introduce our CEO, Stephen Cavey, to Pulse and to meet the CISO communities. We’ve come away with some great follow up opportunities – a really super event!”

Head of Global Marketing, Ground Labs

“With normal events that we attend, its fleeting and you only get moments with your colleagues. You don’t really have an opportunity to spend quality time or have the bandwidth to go deep into topics and subject areas. CISO 360 does this in a very unique way.”

Torquil Macleod, Director, Via Resource

“Pulse put on what was the impossible, nearing the end of covid restrictions It’s been an amazing experience. Fantastic delegates. Conversations have been brilliant, it’s a great event for us, thanks”

Ross Brewer, General Manager & Vice President – EMEA & APJ, AttackIQ

“First and foremost, you know what you’re going to get with Pulse, the quality of delegate is always high. The agenda is very relevant. Finally, it’s great to be back face to face to build relationships. A thoroughly successful event for us!”

Dan Panesar, Director UK & Ireland, Securonix

“This is our first time at a Pulse event. It’s been a very positive experience. Fantastic to be face to face with customers. Great to have 1:1 meetings. Really insightful talks and the acceleration in digital transformation, one we’ll do again!”

Mark Lavis-Jones, Director Enterprise Cyber, QinetiQ

“This is our first time at a Pulse CISO 360 event. What a fantastic event! Great to get together and we’ve had very effective quality meetings. Great content with workshops and breakout sessions. I look forward to many more in the future.”

Richard Fridge, Regional Sales Manager, HUMAN

“2.5 days to mix with delegates allows both parties to determine whether any business is to be done and to develop personal relationships. We generated and qualified many leads which stand a good chance of leading to business. What went well: – understanding what customers want: a product of spending time with them – quality of delegates: as good as any event but the key difference was the amount of time spent listening to them and the opportunity to socialise. – quality of support from Pulse: very happy!”

Head of Commercial Business Development, Garrison

“This was our first but definitely not our last CISO 360! A well planned and executed event with a clear goal of providing tangible value for the participants in combination with a great community feel sure makes it a stand-out event to return to.”

Director, NetClean

“The CISO 360 Pulse Conference was most informative, engaging and gave us a great opportunity for learning, networking and relationship building. Looking forward to the next one!”

Director, Synack

“Pulse delivers some of the most informative and worthwhile events. Their topics, speakers and ability to engage at the highest level to secure attendance means that you are constantly engaged and come away learning something new and meeting new contacts.”

Director EMEA, SailPoint

“Thank you Pulse for the smooth organisation of this huge logistical challenge. My team told me it worked brilliantly and that the networking was one of the most valuable parts of being a sponsor.”

CMO, Company85 (now Telstra Purple)

“Top class speeches and presentations at the CISO 360 Congress in Barcelona! Thanks for such a beneficial and enjoyable experience!”

CMO, Blueliv

“I found CISO 360 Congress to be a great place to share ideas about current and future problems.”

Head of Section, GMV

“Excellent conference, brilliantly put together!”

Partner, Bridewell

“Thank you and your team for a fantastic event. Well organised, great attendance, fab location & great company ! I hope the attendees enjoyed their evening and I would certainly advocating a repeat.”

Security Sales Director, Dimension Data

“Biggest thanks for providing two absolute fantastic events. Quote from one of my team after asking them if we should use you again…… “yes I would with a heartbeat, I am as happy as a clam”. Quote from one of the attendees’ feedback to me…… “this is one of the best CISO dinners I have been to”. The way you work and delivered was second to none, thank you.”

Marketing Manager, Tenable

“I would like to say thank you so much for your effort, diligence, professionalism, patience and results this year – Pulse have been a great addition to our programme.”

Director of Marketing, EMEA & APAC, Skybox Security

“Thank you for a brilliant event, I enjoyed the discussion, inputs and engagement of the participants. The mix between modern and legacy was important to the discussion for a balanced view of the challenges the industry is facing.”

CMO, Snyk (Israel)

“I just wanted to drop you a quick line of thanks for such a wonderful evening. Great food, company and conversation!!”

CEO, Brookcourt Solutions (UK)

“Thank you so much team – I cannot wait for when we can do this live!”

CEO, TDI Security (US)

“Today has been invaluable to us as an organisation! Quest is sponsoring the drinks reception here tonight at Wonderlab. We had a great session in the roundtables and we really appreciate the opportunity to sponsor this event. What a venue in the Science Museum! We hope to be back here next year!”

Head of Manufacturing and Resources UK&I, Quest Software

“It’s my second time at CSO 360. Always a great opportunity to network with people we haven’t seen in the industry for some time. Great to interact to understand new technologies and understand what physical threats we’re going to be facing in the future.”

Robert Aldous, Chief Customer Officer, Solace Global (Frmr Snr Director, Group Risk Strategic Projects, Prudential)

“I attend a lot of security events but these days its quality over quantity, for me the CSO means. The level of person who attend means you can learn something and take away From a sponsor perspective, I couldn’t have a better audience and market!”

Andy Williams, Director, SafeHotels Alliance

“Very Informative and experienced speakers form all different capabilities and sectors which made the forum extremely worthwhile. Great delegates as well to speak to and were clearly very keen on the content especially the TPRM (Third Party Risk Management) space where Mastercard Cyber & Intelligence fitted in. We went to meet and get connected with senior executives from all verticals/Business areas and we achieved that in spades. Our connections in region were built rapidly and our pipeline as a direct result will get larger whilst we build the Risk Recon brand in Middle Eastern region”

John Quinn EMEA Director – Global Cyber Security Partnerships Mastercard Cyber & Intelligence

“I’ve had good meetings with various organisations. Looking at what’s going on across the industry and how organisations are doing things slightly differently has been very interesting. The need for greater collaboration is a key message. It is a fantastic event, and the venue at the Science Museum is the perfect size: I’ve had a breadth of great conversations, but it’s still small enough to have one-to-one discussions.”

Andrew Kelly, Principal Consultant, QinetiQ

“It’s a great event with some high-calibre attendees, and the turnout has been impressive. The one-to-ones provide a superb opportunity to spend some focused time with key customers. And it was brilliant to have one of our team hosting one of the roundtables on CISO practical tips! It’s a unique in that it is a closed community. You get more one-on-one time than you would do at another conference.”

Remco Postma, Sales Leader, SailPoint (The Netherlands)

“It was a fantastic day. Pulse events are always absolutely amazing. As usual it was such a diverse group of people from so many different departments – finance, manufacturing and so on – and they are all at a certain level where you start to understand strategy and where the industry is going in the UK. I probably learnt more than the people I spoke with, so it’s been brilliant.”

UK Chief Technology Security Officer, Qualys

“The day has been great. I enjoyed a lot of good conversations. I’ve spent time with interesting companies and interesting people. Pulse always uses thrilling venues, and the Science Museum in London is special. What’s unique is that CISOs can talk to the board – they have opinions and they want to share them, and also listen to the guidance offered.”
