# Event Details - **Event Name**: From Heat Maps to Hard Decisions: Driving Board Action on Cyber Risk - **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 27 Aug, 2026 at 05:30 pm – Thu, 27 Aug, 2026 at 07:00 pm - **Event Description**: Your board has data but can't decide? Reframe cyber risk as a decision problem, not just a reporting one.About this EventMost organisations are awash in cyber risk data – heat maps, maturity scores, and red/amber/green dashboards – yet boards and executives still struggle to make timely, confident decisions from it. The gap is rarely a lack of information; it is a failure of translation. This session explores why technical risk reporting often stalls at the boardroom door and what security, audit and governance professionals can do to change that.Drawing on 18 years of experience across enterprise technology, sales leadership and the cyber sector, Ahmed Eltayeb reframes cyber risk as a decision problem rather than a reporting problem. Attendees will learn how to express risk in the language executives use: capital, exposure, trade-offs and consequences. The session also explores how Zero Trust thinking can be applied not only to systems but also to leadership decision-making under uncertainty.Light catering and drinks will be providedTickets are free for members and $10 for non-membersWho should attend:Current members, information system audits, IT risk analysts, students, and professionalsWhat is in it for the audience:· Connect with people helping shape the local ISACA Adelaide community· Engage directly with the speaker and fellow chapter members· Maintain CPEs· Gain practical techniques for board-level cyber risk communication· Continuous learning and professional networking - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/adelaide/from-heat-maps-to-hard-decisions-driving-board-action-on-cyber-risk/100001997551748051 - **Event Categories**: art, fine-arts - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes - Location: Core Innovation Hub Lot Fourteen Space Lab Building, Ground Floor - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 10, currency: AUD ## Event venue details - **city**: Adelaide - **state**: SA - **country**: Australia - **location**: Core Innovation Hub Lot Fourteen Space Lab Building, Ground Floor - **lat**: -34.9186118 - **long**: 138.6067518 - **full address**: Core Innovation Hub Lot Fourteen Space Lab Building, Ground Floor, 4 Frome Road, Adelaide, Australia ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: From Heat Maps to Hard Decisions: Driving Board Action on Cyber Risk - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events9/banners/19211334e16e5bee5804765a0245d2e8f9bd2a42b606f02466b6bb9177c1ace7-rimg-w1200-h595-dcf8f8f8-gmir.jpg?v=1786465483 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is From Heat Maps to Hard Decisions: Driving Board Action on Cyber Risk being held? - **A:** From Heat Maps to Hard Decisions: Driving Board Action on Cyber Risk takes place on Thu, 27 Aug, 2026 at 05:30 pm to Thu, 27 Aug, 2026 at 07:00 pm at Core Innovation Hub Lot Fourteen Space Lab Building, Ground Floor, 4 Frome Road, Adelaide, Australia. - **Q**: Who is organizing From Heat Maps to Hard Decisions: Driving Board Action on Cyber Risk? - **A:** From Heat Maps to Hard Decisions: Driving Board Action on Cyber Risk is organized by ISACA Adelaide. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
