Topic: Bridging the Cybersecurity Measurement Gap: “Are We Measuring What Matters?”

Description:
Tackling cybersecurity’s “measurement crisis” with empirical insights from academic research and practical operations. This will expose the pitfalls of KPI-driven Security Operations Centers (SOCs), revealing how well-intentioned metrics often misalign analyst actions from true business security objectives.

Wellington specializes in strategic cybersecurity measurement and operational efficiency. His empirical research directly addresses the cybersecurity “measurement crisis”—the ongoing challenge of translating high-level security goals and risks into actionable, measurable job tasks for teams across the organization. His work provides practical insights to ensure that security efforts drive tangible business outcomes.
