Q&A: Fred Wilmot & Cee Ng

About the event
📣 LIVE Today at 11 AM PST! If you don’t know Fred Wilmot, in Seattle, you’ve been living under a rock. A recognized cybersecurity veteran with experience at IBM, Blue Cross, AT&T, T-Mobile, Symantec, Walt Disney, Splunk, MixMode, Devo, and JumpCloud—his expertise and POV on the cybersecurity landscape & CISO challenges run oceans deep. 🌊
Today, Fred is a Founder, 3X CISO, Board Member, & Advisor who truly understands the problem space. He knows how tough it is to speak eloquently about cybersecurity and how CISOs are defined by their operational resilience.
As you know, there’s a lot of smoke and mirrors in this industry, and ignoring, avoiding, or failing to navigate security across the organization is a business risk—especially when decision-makers need to double down on protecting the organization from the inside out. We’re covering the skepticism security professionals face when working with new and current team members, where effective communication and risk management are non-negotiable to uphold principles that impact everyone.
Fred gets what operational resilience means—it’s horizontal and impacts not just IT & security, but also marketing, legal, external crisis management, risk committees, and crisis recovery. Navigating this space as a CISO is tricky but rewarding when you have the right tools, people, and processes to communicate effectively.
