 <\/p>\n

The panellists discussed the need for CSO and CISO to work towards amalgamating their physical and cyber security efforts. The panel recognised physical and cyber attackers have more sophisticated tools and a greater understanding of network-based systems than ever before. The common theme of the discussion was highlighting the benefits of cyber and physical convergence. The practical barriers (system, process, people) of implementing a security strategy such as this were discussed. The panellists gave the audience practical examples of what organisations should do to increase the success rate of such a strategy.<\/p>\n
