Session Description
When ransomware struck William Jewell College during move-in weekend, it wasn't just an IT crisis. It was an existential threat to an institution already navigating post-COVID enrollment challenges. This session reveals how a liberal arts college transformed a devastating LockBit 3.0 attack into a case study for quantifying cybersecurity ROI, building programmatic resilience on limited budgets, and communicating security value to non-technical boards.
Join Nick Gicinto (former CIA, Tesla, Uber CISO, and William Jewell alumnus), alongside UpGuard's Product Marketing and Research leaders, for an unflinching discussion of what happens when cyber insurance fails, how external attack surface management filled critical visibility gaps, and why security scoring became the language that finally resonated in the boardroom.
This isn't a theoretical framework discussion; it's a battlefield report from higher education's frontlines, with practical takeaways for any security leader fighting for budget, proving program impact, or explaining cyber risk to executives who don't speak "security."
