Making the case for security investment means translating technical risk into business language. Defending budget decisions, justifying headcount, and proving the tools on your stack are earning their place. It's one of the harder conversations, but now there's numbers to help you own it.

SentinelOne commissioned IDC to study what organizations actually achieve when they move from legacy endpoint tools to autonomous, AI-native protection. Based on in-depth customer interviews, the findings are clear: threats remediated 54% faster, security operations teams operating 47% more efficiently, and $4.11 million in annual benefits per organization, all while cutting security solution costs by 17%.

In this session, IDC Analyst, Christopher Kissel, SentinelOne Principal Technical Evangelist, Anthony La Scala, and Blanca Galvan, Cybersecurity and Governance Manager at Franklin Mountain Management will surface what the data actually means in practice. The real decisions, the hard conversations with leadership, and what it looks like to run security with a lean team across a multi-entity, multi-industry environment.

• Benchmark your endpoint security program against IDC's independent research on what high-performing organizations achieve
• Quantify the cost of legacy tooling in time, money, and measurable risk exposure
• Hear directly from a security leader who built the internal case herself, and what she'd tell a peer weighing the same decision
• Build a business case for modern endpoint protection with numbers that hold up in any boardroom
