As a long-time CISO and a board member for the FAIR Institute, I know that taking a quantitative approach to cyber risk management has never been more important. As CISOs, we find our resources are stretched thinner and our attack surfaces larger and more complex than ever. Our businesses must be armed with facts and metrics that help us cost-effectively manage risk at the speeds that our businesses move. That’s what this year’s FAIR Conference is all about.
John Sapp is CISO and VP Information Security at Texas Mutual
Insurance Company and a FAIR Institute Board Member.

John will speak at FAIRCON24 on the panel discussion
“Integrating Cyber Into ERM”
CISO-only Track, Tuesday, October 1, 4:20 PM ET
Register for the 2024 FAIR Conference
We designed the 2024 FAIR Conference — or FAIRCON24 — to inform you of the latest strategies, standards and best practices for governing cyber in terms of business value. To do so, we’ve put together an executive agenda that features more than 70 CISOs, CROs, CIOs, CEOs and board members. We will connect you with the brightest of your peers from the who’s who of cyber risk management. And we will challenge you to stretch your thinking about how you protect your business, reduce liability and satisfy your board of directors.
FAIRCON24 is a must attend event for CISOs and other risk leaders. It’s just two days of your time, unless you take one of the pre-conference classes or workshops (which I recommend). Below are a few facts about the event, including just a few of our CXO speakers.
Please consider attending! Register for FAIRCON24 here.
