This private executive briefing is designed for business leaders who want a clearer understanding of how modern cyber threats really impact organizations — and what leadership decisions can reduce exposure before a costly incident occurs.

Cyber risk is no longer just an IT issue — it is a leadership issue.

In this MacKay CEO Forums session, Darren will lead a fireside-style discussion on how hackers actually break into companies today, why executives are increasingly the target, and what organizations can do to reduce exposure before cyber threats turn into financial loss, operational disruption, or reputational damage.

Rather than a technical presentation built for IT teams, this session is structured for CEOs and business leaders who need practical clarity around today’s threat landscape, including business email compromise, executive impersonation, identity-based attacks, and emerging AI-related risk.

During the session, Darren will explore:

• Why cyber attacks have shifted from systems to people — especially executives
• How the largest cyber losses often involve stolen money, not stolen data
• Why inbox access, identity compromise, and domain impersonation create outsized business risk
• How attackers are bypassing traditional protections and exploiting trust inside organizations
• Why visibility, governance, and fast response matter more than a false sense of security
• What executive teams can do now to reduce risk, improve resilience, and strengthen business continuity

The discussion will also include interactive elements, including anonymized examples of credential exposure, domain impersonation risk, and real-world scenarios that help business leaders better understand how attacks unfold — and how to respond before they become expensive.

This is not fear-based cybersecurity. It is executive-level risk awareness designed to help leaders make better decisions.

MacKay CEO Forums brings together experienced business leaders for confidential peer learning, strategic discussion, and high-value conversations around the issues that materially affect growth, leadership, and long-term business performance.

This Kelowna session is intended to help members better understand the risks they cannot afford to ignore — and the practical steps they can take to protect what they have built.
