National Underwriter Package

Who NTSC convenes

NTSC is an invitation-only, member-funded, practitioner-driven 501(c) comprised of approximately 60 of the world's leading CISOs and senior cybersecurity executives across critical infrastructure and highly regulated sectors.

NTSC convenes leaders accountable for budget decisions, risk acceptance, regulatory response, and enterprise-wide security execution. The work is pragmatic, non-partisan, candid, and grounded in real-world operating constraints.

National Underwriters gain access, insight, and credibility by contributing to the community—not by promoting to it.
