The Hidden Gaps in Planning Your Security Assessment Cycle

2026 brings bigger audits, tighter budgets, and wider attack surfaces. Even mature teams face recurring blind spots that lead to stalled audits and remediation backlogs.

Join this 40-minute executive discussion with Kiran (VP Global Alliances and Business Development, Siemba) and Sandhya (Chief Security Officer) as they break down the systemic gaps Security Leaders unintentionally overlook when planning their annual assessment cycle and the operational friction those gaps create across security, engineering, and compliance.

This session focuses on the real-world challenges security leaders face, including:

• How visibility gaps across apps, APIs, cloud, and vendors quietly break assessment planning

• Why scopes shift mid-cycle and how to prevent surprises, rework, and delays

• How fragmented workflows create audit friction and inconsistent results

• Why prioritization fails without business context and how leaders realign it

• How CISOs forecast testing demand and budget with confidence for the year
