The Role of the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) The role of the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) is no longer confined to securing the network perimeter. As organisations become more digitally connected and data-driven, the CISO’s responsibilities have expanded far beyond traditional security measures. Today’s CISO must not only defend against cyber threats but also enable the business to innovate securely, manage complex regulatory environments, and instill a culture of trust across the organisation. This event will explore the evolving role of the CISO as a strategic leader who balances security with business enablement. As digital transformation accelerates, how can CISOs align their security strategies with organisational goals, ensure compliance, and lead their teams in the fight against increasingly sophisticated threats? Key Discussion Points: From Gatekeeper to Strategic Partner: How CISOs can shift from being seen as barriers to innovation to becoming key enablers of business agility and transformation through security. Balancing Risk and Innovation: Learn how top CISOs navigate the delicate balance between mitigating risk and supporting the organisation’s need to innovate and scale in a secure environment. Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC): Explore how CISOs are managing an increasingly complex regulatory landscape, ensuring compliance while still driving business objectives forward. Building a Security-First Culture: Practical strategies for CISOs to foster a culture where security is embedded into every part of the business, from boardroom discussions to frontline operations. CISO as Crisis Manager: How to prepare for and lead your organisation through major cybersecurity incidents. From ransomware attacks to data breaches, we’ll discuss how today’s CISO is as much a crisis manager as they are a strategist. Why You Should Attend: As a CISO, your role is evolving faster than ever before. This event is designed to provide you with actionable insights into how to embrace your expanded responsibilities while keeping your organisation safe and secure. Whether you’re focused on aligning security with business goals, navigating regulatory challenges, or leading in times of crisis, this event will equip you with the strategies to lead the next era of cybersecurity.

CIBIL implements custom defense strategy to safeguard customer information
Implements custom defense strategy to safeguard customer information
OVERVIEW
Credit Information Bureau (India) Ltd. (CIBIL), founded in 2000, is India’s first credit information company. CIBIL collects and maintains records of an individual’s payments pertaining to loans and credit cards. These records are submitted to CIBIL monthly by member banks and credit institutions. This information is then used to create credit information reports and credit scores, which are provided to credit institutions to help evaluate and approve loan applications.
The company was created to meet a very specific requirement: to bring about financial inclusion. CIBIL was on the lookout for technology that would help CIBIL provide its customer base with faster and cheaper access to CIBIL’s financial services. Today, the organization includes a customer base ranging from individuals to companies to microfinance organizations.
Trend Micro solutions provide an entire ecosystem that detects and blocks threats so that our data remains protected.
Satish Pillai
Managing Director and CEO, CIBIL
CHALLENGES
Data security is of the utmost importance to CIBIL due to the sensitivities of customer data and the inherent privacy issues of the business. When the company faced potential malignant attacks that threatened the company’s servers, CIBIL knew it needed effective protection from threat vectors and targeted attacks. Most of the servers are exposed to the internet, making it very important for CIBIL to protect them against any external threats and vulnerabilities. With advanced attacks and threats surfacing, it was imperative to have a strong strategy against targeted attacks—a strategy that could further improve the security posture of the organization.
Trend Micro has helped to simplify security operations with a single management dashboard across all functions.
Shiju Rawther
Assistant Vice President of Technology, CIBIL
SOLUTION
CIBIL implemented four Trend Micro products to protect its network and data center. Trend Micro™ Deep Security™ provides virtual patching, integrity monitoring, log inspection, anti-malware, and firewall in a single agent and dashboard, making compliance reporting less cumbersome. Virtual patching helps improve the patching cycle, protects against zero-day vulnerabilities, and is completely automated, making it easy to implement across the data center.
Trend Micro™ Deep Discovery™ provides 360-degree visibility for more than 100 protocols across all ports. Deep Discovery integration with Trend Micro™ TippingPoint® and other network devices helps to build a strong ecosystem for detecting, analyzing, and mitigating advanced threats. Deep Discovery includes multiple detection engines, along with a customized sandbox for detection and mitigation. The company’s custom defense strategy is implemented by integrating Deep Discovery with TippingPoint, Trend Micro™ InterScan™ Messaging Security Virtual Appliance (IMSVA), other network devices and security information and event management (SIEM) solutions.
RESULTS
The implementation of Trend Micro solutions has allowed CIBIL to efficiently monitor potential threats and effectively safeguard the information that their customers entrust them with. Trend Micro provides complete messaging gateway protection. This helps CIBIL to protect end users against targeted attacks and provides vulnerability protection and better visibility into security threats.
WHAT'S NEXT
As India’s first credit information company, CIBIL knows that its IT security team must stay informed about the latest threats to ensure that their systems and customer data are always protected. By working closely with Trend Micro, CIBIL can better understand the most efficient ways to defend against the next wave of exploits.

Sharon Prior - CIO in transition - How Great Tech Leadership Begins with Business Thinking
The role of the CIO has evolved from managing systems to shaping outcomes: growth, resilience, and competitive edge are now won or lost in the technology arena. Today ’ s CIOs must balance stability with innovation, control costs while attracting scarce talent, and modernise legacy infrastructure while adopting emerging technologies.
As AI transitions from a specialised tool to an all-pervasive force, understanding its profound implications for our human lives is no longer merely academic but an urgent imperative for social well-being and strategic preparedness.
Geopolitical tensions have dominated the headlines for over two years now. In this context, the cyber threat landscape is also evolving rapidly. The protection and security of critical infrastructure – both physical and digital – is becoming increasingly important.
