Tenable Executive Retreat Napa 2015



Tenable's top customers are invited for a weekend in beautiful Napa Valley where they will interact with leading industry and policy experts to discuss key security issues. In a relaxed setting, we will follow an organized agenda focused on moving beyond discussions of 'information sharing' in order to strengthen the security industry as a whole.

As we enter 2015, one of the great and vexing ironies is that as IT infrastructure has taken center stage in both business and government, IT has also ‘left the building’, dispersed to locations mobile, virtual, social, and cloud, operated by third parties – as if protecting it wasn’t already difficult enough.

Speakers and panelists will engage with 50 Tenable customer CSOs to discuss how government, enterprises, their boards of directors, executive management and technologists are responding, where there are successes, and where help is needed.
