Simplify Or Drown: Practical Strategies For Streamlining Security Processes

Overview: Security teams are drowning. We’re asked to be everywhere, approve everything, and respond to endless incidents — with no extra resources to keep up. The problem isn’t just workload. It’s that much of what we do doesn’t actually reduce risk.

In this fast-paced session based on real-world experiences, you’ll learn how to identify the patterns of wasted security effort, and how to carve it out. We’ll combine security methodologies such as Threat Modeling with established business ones Details: , like Lean Six Sigma, to streamline the security processes, eliminate what doesn’t matter, and increase their reliability. In short, you’ll discover the secret backdoor between “But we’ve always done things this way!” and “What’s the real problem we’re trying to solve here?” – and give you the right answers for it along the way.

Expect to leave with a playbook of redesign techniques, true war stories, and practical metrics to measure impact. The result? A leaner security function that focuses on real threats, not just rituals of illusion of control.
