From Compliance to Confidence: Building Continuous Assurance at Scale

Traditional GRC processes can no longer keep pace with the speed of modern business. Lengthy security reviews and manual evidence collection slow innovation, strain teams, and create uncertainty for customers and boards alike. With AI transforming every layer of the enterprise, leaders have an opportunity to reimagine assurance as a real-time, intelligence-driven capability that supports responsible, rapid growth.

This executive event will bring together leaders to discuss the strategies and operating models shaping the future of trust. We’ll explore how organizations are adopting AI-enabled assurance, enhancing visibility across their environments, and strengthening customer confidence while reducing operational drag. Participants will walk away with actionable insights to modernize GRC functions, improve trust velocity, and position assurance as a strategic business enabler.

Attended the C-Vision International CISO Dinner last night and to sum it up in one word, "Wow!" Incredibly well moderated discussion and investigation into different viewpoints. I appreciate the openness of all the attendees to share their unique experiences and perspectives. I learned a lot, had a ton of fun, and look forward to further events like this!

Recently updated my "event vendors I will NEVER work with again" list, DM me if you're interested in the names and stories. On the other hand, I want to recommend Nelson Soares and C-Vision International who are true partners to our success, and I really enjoy working with. Happy to also share the great list of vendors we liked, as there are many of them, and we've recently had the pleasure of joining wonderful events, which we immediately renewed.

The day was awesome and the evening exceeded my wildest expectations. I've never been to a dinner like that where a table with 12 CIOs/CISOs was focused exclusively on Netskope. Just fantastic.
Thank you for including me!
I look forward to the next time we have the opportunity to meet

I had the pleasure of joining the C-Vision International, Nordics CISO Council Roundtable with a wonderful group of cyber executives. We had a wonderful, insightful conversation and the whole experience was enjoyable. I made great new contacts and reconnected with existing contacts on really important topics that matter to CISO’s and all in cybersecurity. I’d highly recommend joining in any C-Vision event.
