When Organizational Disruption Hits Security: Panel Discussion
Panelists at the 2026 SECURITY 500 Conference will share lessons learned from extraordinary situations they’ve experienced. When the security function is disturbed at an operational level — such as bankruptcies, acquisitions, budget cuts, or more — security leaders find themselves navigating times of uncertainty while continuing to serve as a protective force.
This panel, “Security Leadership in Extraordinary Situations,” will discuss what can be learned from these tests of leadership, resilience, and strategy.
The panel discussion will take place in Washington, D.C. on November 16, 2026 as part of the SECURITY 500 Conference, a one-day security executive event hosted by Security magazine. It will be moderated by Michael Gips, Managing Director for ESRM at Kroll, Principal at Global Insights in Professional Security, LLC, former executive at ASIS International, and Security magazine columnist. Panelists will include:
- Lisa Oliveri, Director, Global Security Operations Center, Twilio
- Lauren D’Amore, Senior Safety and Security Advisor, The Washington Post
- Theresa Durham, Chief Security, Safety and Risk Officer, National Press Club
The 19th annual SECURITY 500 Conference will unite high-level security executives and their direct reports in Washington, D.C. on November 16, 2026. This one-day leadership conference is open exclusively to security executives, senior management, and their direct reports in both the private and public sectors.
