Security is often viewed as a necessary expense or even a necessary evil, but leading organizations know it’s a measurable driver of enterprise value and profitability.

‍
In this session, Bonnie Michelman will break down how to quantify and communicate the true return on investment of your security program. Through real-world case examples and data-backed insights, she’ll demonstrate how effective security operations reduce liability, prevent loss, protect brand reputation, and directly support profitability.

‍

Attendees will learn how to:

• Measure and articulate security ROI in financial terms executives understand
• Showcase the impact of risk mitigation, loss prevention, and liability reduction
• Reframe security as a strategic business enabler – not a “necessary evil”
• Communicate value in a way that earns executive buy-in and sustained investment
