​Join Us for an Exclusive Executive Dinner & Discussion

​Boston - Aphinia Cybersecurity Leaders Mastermind Dinner Discussion with Bob Litterer (CISO, Teradyne)

​​Securing the Enterprise: A CISO Roundtable

​Aphinia warmly invites you to an exclusive executive dinner bringing together some of North America's most accomplished cybersecurity leaders for an evening of candid conversation, sharp insight, and genuine connection. Over great food and a relaxed atmosphere, you'll sit alongside peers who understand the weight of the role — and the thrill of getting it right.

​​The Topic

​Securing the Enterprise: A CISO Roundtable

​Cybersecurity leaders are navigating one of the most demanding moments in the history of the discipline. Threat actors move faster, AI has rewritten both the attack surface and the defender's toolkit, and boards expect clearer answers on risk than ever before. The CISO's mandate has expanded well beyond technology — into business strategy, regulatory navigation, and organisational resilience.

​Yet the best ideas rarely come from vendor decks or industry reports. They come from conversations with peers who are quietly solving the same problems, making the same trade-offs, and learning the same hard lessons. This dinner is designed to be exactly that kind of conversation: off-the-record, senior-only, and grounded in the realities of running security at scale.

​Guided by our moderator - Bob Litterer (CISO, Teradyne), the group will explore the questions that matter most right now:

• ​How are CISOs balancing the opportunities and risks of AI adoption across the enterprise?

• ​What's actually working when it comes to communicating cyber risk to the board?

• ​Where should security leaders be investing their limited time, budget, and political capital in the year ahead?
