Many security initiatives fail not because of missing tools or skills, but because technical measures are implemented without clear ownership, context, or alignment with business reality.

This talk is aimed at IT and cyber security professionals who are responsible for implementing security in real-world organizations.
Jürgen Ebner explores why even well-designed security architectures often fail in practice – and how unclear responsibilities, unrealistic expectations, and missing decision support undermine technical efforts.

The session bridges the gap between security engineering and business reality.
It focuses on communication, responsibility, and the role of IT professionals in shaping security beyond technology.
