• Everything, Everywhere, All at Once: The New Rules of Exposure Management

  • When
    09/24/2026
  •  
    1:00 PM
  • Location
    Virtual

  Everything, Everywhere, All at Once: The New Rules of Exposure Management THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 24 | 1 p.m. ET, 10 a.m. PT REGISTER NOW

  Join us to see what “continuous” really means in day-to-day security operations, not just on a slide. Security teams have managed vulnerabilities the same way for years: periodic scans and spreadsheet-tracked CVE lists. But attack surfaces change every day, and a point-in-time snapshot leaves blind spots and a false sense of coverage. Join Arctic Wolf Senior Technical Marketing Manager, Peter Ingebrigtsen and Senior Vice President, Product Management – XDR & EDR JJ Guy for an honest conversation about moving from point-in-time vulnerability management to Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM), Gartner’s framework for continuously scoping, discovering, prioritizing, validating, and mobilizing against real-world risk, and see what changes once visibility is always on.

  Attendees will:

  Hear what vulnerability management used to miss: the blind spots, the manual effort, and the false sense of coverage

  See what changes operationally once visibility is ongoing instead of point-in-time

  Get lessons learned, unexpected wins, and practical advice for teams considering the same shift

• Cyber Resilience Conference

  • When
    10/14/2026
  •  
    8:30 AM - 2:30 PM
  • Location
    201 Tyler Way, Moraine, OH, 45439

  Presented by GoCyber Collective and GDAHA

  

  When cyberattacks threaten patient care, resilience matters.

  Healthcare organizations face an increasingly complex threat landscape where ransomware,
  supply chain attacks, business email compromise, and data breaches can disrupt operations and
  impact the communities they serve. Building cyber resilience is no longer just an IT priority; it’s
  an organizational imperative.

  That’s why GoCyber Collective and GDAHA (Greater Dayton Area Hospital Association) are
  proud to present Cyber Resilience Conference: Healthcare 2026 on Wednesday, October 14th, 2026.

  This one-day event brings together healthcare executives, cybersecurity professionals,
  technology leaders, legal experts, emergency management personnel, and trusted industry
  partners for a day focused on practical strategies, meaningful collaboration, and real-world
  solutions.

  Rather than offering abstract theories or sales presentations, Cyber Resilience Conference:
  Healthcare 2026 is designed to provide attendees with actionable insights they can take back to
  their organizations immediately. Through keynote presentations, expert panels, and focused
  discussions, participants will explore today’s evolving threat landscape while sharing best
  practices for prevention, response, recovery, and long-term resilience.

  Topics will include:
  • The evolving cyber threat landscape facing healthcare
  • Incident response and organizational preparedness
  • Leadership during cyber crises
  • Regulatory and legal considerations
  • Building resilient partnerships across the healthcare ecosystem
  • Emerging technologies and their impact on security and patient care

  The conference also provides valuable opportunities to network with peers, engage with trusted
  solution providers, and strengthen relationships across Ohio’s healthcare and cybersecurity
  communities.

  Cyber resilience is not built in isolation. It is built through preparation, collaboration, and shared
  knowledge. Whether you’re a hospital executive, security practitioner, IT leader, compliance
  professional, risk manager, legal advisor, or technology partner, you’ll leave this conference with
  new connections, practical ideas, and a stronger foundation for protecting your organization and
  the patients who depend on it.

  AI WEBINAR SERIES – Cultivating an Authentic Voice in the Age of AI

  Virtual Event | Registration Open

  Event Details

  With increased interest in and use of artificial intelligence (AI) in higher education, demand also has grown for better understanding of the opportunities and challenges presented in this space. To help higher education professionals navigate this rapidly evolving landscape, the Strategic Ohio Council for Higher Education (SOCHE) will feature a special AI Webinar Series for the 2026-27 school year.

  The first session in the series, “Cultivating an Authentic Voice in the Age of AI,” will be held on Wednesday, Oct. 21, from 12 to 1 p.m. ET via Zoom. The webinar will be presented by Dr. Brandy Bagar-Fraley, Writing Program Administrator at Franklin University.

  With AI becoming a more common part of teaching, leadership, and collaboration in higher education, maintaining an authentic voice is more important than ever. This session explores how emerging technologies are reshaping interactions with colleagues and students while offering practical strategies for preserving the personality, perspective, and values that make communication meaningful. Participants will examine why a distinct voice matters in an AI-assisted environment, recognize the “flattening” effect that can result from overreliance on AI, and discover strategies for using AI to strengthen — rather than replace — human connection.

  Learning Goals:

  • Analyze AI’s impact on individual communication
  • Connect communication to context and culture
  • Recognize and avoid AI “flattening”
  • Identify personal communication markers that establish an authentic voice

  Reserve your spot today to gain practical strategies for using AI without losing the human voice that makes your teaching, leadership, and collaboration most effective.

The session also provides practical strategies for communicating with employees, listening to concerns, and avoiding language that can increase fear or mistrust. Leave with practical tools, greater confidence, and a clear approach for leading your team through the opportunities and uncertainty of AI-driven change.

  By the end of this session, participants will be able to:

  1. Identify project tasks that can be supported by generative AI.
  2. Apply AI tools to project planning, communication and task management.
