Dinner

Hello, my name is Rafi Buchnick. I am a risk and security expert with extensive experience leading cross-functional teams, assisting them in the delivery of secure IT solutions. I ensure protection for global business operations and mitigate cyber risks for multiple clients, worldwide and am recognized for my impeccable record, in protecting client business interests, and any further damages to operations, during forensic investigations. After serving as Captain in Israel’s IDF Intelligence Corps, I began my career working as Chairman of the Board, ‘Bashan’ Market and Productions. From there, I progressed to a position as Financial Controller, Schneider Children Medical Center, and then, as Division Deputy Head at the Israel Institute for Biological Research. The rest of my work history is detailed in this profile. For more than fifteen years, I have been involved in ensuring security operations and planning for business continuity, should there be a disruption in services and/or the occurrence of a natural or manmade disaster/cyberattack. I am successful because of my meticulous attention to detail, as well as my ability to communicate technical information in easy-to understand language. I know I am only as good as the team I assemble, so I take time to train, coach, and mentor team members for career growth and business success. My key areas of expertise include, but are not limited to, Information Security, Risk Assessments/Mitigation, Stakeholder Communication, Regulatory Compliance, Technology & Application Vulnerability Review, Investigations to Support Client Business Interests, Disaster Recovery & Business Continuity, Cross-Functional Team Collaboration, Cost Reduction, Project Management, Industry Best Practices, and Increasing Cyber Capabilities.

The Future of AppSec and how to Elevate it to a Board Level Discussion

The Cybersecurity industry has been changing fast and Developers are increasingly using Open Source libraries and AI as necessary resources to build applications faster but they are also known to come with vulnerabilities that can all-too-easily make it into products. Many companies have learned their lesson the hard way that these vulnerabilities can have disastrous outcomes, Board members have learned these lessons, too, and now want more frequent updates and insight into security initiatives.

Join us to hear and discuss:

  • Top board members’ concerns and priorities
  • Presenting information and metrics in a way that board members understand
  • Getting board buy-in on your plans and budget to stay ahead of the threat landscape and innovation curve
