Just wrapped up an engaging panel session at CISO Sydney on overcoming common incident management challenges. A huge thank you to Andrew Lawrence, Jayden Le, Siddharth Rajanna, and Kapil Yewale for their invaluable insights.

We did a deep dive into the importance of clear, understandable processes and playbooks along with aligning incident response with effective GRC practices. There was a good debate on the merits of tabletop exercises and we had consensus on the importance of good communication and having an open and adaptable culture.

While we only scratched the surface of this vast topic, the discussion was rich with practical wisdom. To the audience, your thought-provoking questions added tremendous value, and I apologise we couldn’t address them all in our limited time.

CISO Sydney 2025 has been an exceptional event, offering a unique opportunity to connect with peers, gain fresh perspectives, and explore cutting-edge tools and approaches in cybersecurity.

Looking forward to continuing these crucial conversations and implementing the learning.
