Lunch and learn: How to make sure all your security investments pull in the same direction
Most organisations find it challenging to protect themselves against the ever-evolving list of risks and threats. The fact that most of us do this with a limited set of resources makes this even more complicated

Time
09:00 AM - 12:00 PM incl. lunch
Location
mnemonic HQ, Henrik Ibsens gate 100, 0255 Oslo
All organisations and companies have unique security needs. However, most experience a few of the same common security challenges. These often include:
- Choosing what security controls to implement
- Mitigating their risks
- Making sure the security part of the organisation supports the business part
- Using capabilities more effectively
- Optimising their current security investments
To meet these challenges, we’ve developed the mnemonic Enterprise Security Architecture (mESA) framework, to help organisations better prepare for technological advancements, changing legislation and the evolving threat landscape.
Join us at our invite only lunch and learn on November 9th to find out more about how your organisation can solve some of these challenges with mESA.
Agenda
09:00-09:10 Welcome and registration
09:10-09:35 The story behind mESA
with Mark Totton, Pincipal Management Consultant, mnemonic
During his presentation, Mark will share the story behind mESA, the challenges mnemonic needed to solve both for ourselves, and how our interactions with customers made it clear this was addressing an external need as well.
09:35-10:00 mESA Demo
with Angel Alonso, Team Leader, Governance, Risk & Compliance, mnemonic
Alonso has lead the cross-departmental team that build the mESA framework. The tool that first was intended to aid our internal challenges, is now in use among several of our customers’ as well.
In his demo, Alonso will show how to give your organisation a solid foundation through working on your control layer (providing a company-wide maturity assessment), and how to continue using our framework to address the challenges mentioned above.
The presentation will be of use for new users of mESA, those curious, and more experienced users.
