History of Swiss CISO Summit

 

Swiss CISO Summit was running very successfully from 2001 under the name Risk and Security Exchange and around 2004-2008 as Swiss Security Exchange. It was stopped by the financial turmoil. From 2009 ongoing same format has been running in Norway as Sikkerhetstoppmøte. All this experience gained by Prof. Haemmerli is put into the Swiss CISO Summit.
