Swiss Security Exchange is a series of Roundtables that bring decision makers and strategic thinkers together around the table on the topic of Information Security and the complex risks it implies. The Roundtables are not only based on IT issues; Information Technology is the backbone of all modern business and society, but at the centre of the debate are the pertaining risks and possibilities.

After three successful and fruitful sessions of the Risk & Security Exchange Initiative, we created a new Initiative with more international focus and alignment with current status of research on IT Security worldwide. The new Swiss Security Exchange Initiative aims to bring together Switzerland's strategic thinkers to exchange knowledge in the area of Security. The Roundtables are based in Switzerland and deal with issues important to Swiss business decision makers, but will bring the issues into light through a European and international filter. How are the results of our Swiss panel different than what researchers find all over the world? What are the main differences and where do the opinions converge? With Accenture as new Knowledge Partner the Swiss Security Exchange offers a highly interactive platform for a strategic business dialogue on security issues.
