IT Security in the New Future by CSO Events

Location: Online
                Must register in advance


You’re invited to join us on Wednesday, May 27 (11am Pacific/12pm Mountain), for a timely, live video roundtable where experts will discuss how to prepare for IT Security in the New Future. This hour-long program will be moderated by Bob Bragdon, Contributing Editor, CSO.

Join IT & security executives signed up to participate from CVS Health, Union Bank, PetSmart, Xcel Energy, St. Joseph Health System, Staples, Inc., and more!

Different businesses...different levels of preparedness. As the global pandemic hit, organizations were pressed to implement the resilience plans that they had developed and found out quickly how well those plans worked. The CSO Pandemic Impact Survey found that while 54% of businesses feel they were prepared for this, 61% are concerned about the increased risks they now face. Securing and governing access while managing digital identities is critical to this new work paradigm.
The question now shifts to what the long-term impact will be on how businesses address security moving forward. No one has a clear picture yet but it’s as safe assumption that this will change how businesses address risks for at least the next five years - and that will have a direct impact on how you will structure your security environment.
Register now and experience:  

  • An hour-long, live, virtual private discussion with senior IT/security leaders, all sharing similar challenges (no recording, no viewing later).
  • Skilled moderation by CSO Contributing Editor Bob Bragdon, who will keep the discussion focused and elicit great insights.
  • Interactive Q&A and polling.
  • Ability to continue the conversation with participants after the session.

Space is limited, register today.

We hope you can join us!

The driving idea behind MacTech Conference is to allow members of the Apple community to meet and exchange ideas. We do this through not just presentations from some of the best and well-known experts in the community, but by fostering interactions and building relationships.

MacTech Conference has a combination of joint sessions, concurrent tracks, and labs/forums targeted for IT Pros, Enterprise, consultants, and techs. Sessions topics will include talks on Security, Storage, Wifi, Device Management, Private Cloud, Python and so much more.

In addition to the awesome content, we strive to create a unique environment at MacTech Conference — one where collaboration, spending time with one’s peers, new knowledge and connections are fostered.

With Apple's new iOS, macOS, watchOS, and tvOS come new challenges for techs, consultants and IT professionals. MacTech Conference will be the first major event after Apple ships the next versions of its operating systems. If you are an IT professional, tech or consultant, then you should be a part of this event.

MacTech Conference is also know for our great parties and evening events.

Find out why, year after year, MacTech Conference attendees rave about… The content. The people. The experience.

Location: OnLine

Communication is critical for your success as a CSM and it is the most important competency for you to master. Despite this, when was the last time you actually leveled up your communication skills?

People are not born excellent, effective communicators; they learn, get coaching, and practice. Most people learn by making embarrassing mistakes, and getting corrected by a boss, a more experienced CSM, or, heaven forbid, the customer.

Don’t learn in front of your customer or boss.

Strikedeck is proud to present Customer Kaizen’s CSM Communications Fast Track, a 3-part training workshop to help CSMs master communication best practices, and quickly improve all facets of their communication skills.

Following the very successful 24 Hours in the Cloud on line event last year MS are now running 24 Hours in a Private Cloud online event scheduled for May 10, 2012.

Every organization has the power to employ cloud technologies in their own way, at their own pace and with their own terms.

Over 24 hours, you will hear from top industry and technical professionals from around the world to help you better understand the private cloud technology solutions that are available today. You will hear from industry organizations about how they view the public cloud and how the role of the IT Professional will evolve as more and more organizations begin a private cloud transformation. Listen to the number of technical professionals who will be on hand talking about the required components to simplify private cloud creation and management. Talk with them and your peers about the numerous operational efficiencies that come from deploying a private cloud with the reduction of servers and the benefits of provisioning and managing virtual applications across multiple platforms.

We hope that you will come away from this event with the knowledge and experience to help you in your private cloud infrastructure decisions and be prepared to have thought-leadership based discussions focused on building and managing your organization’s agile and efficient private cloud environment.

p>Building Your Big Data Future With Open Source

Every business is, or should be, a data-driven business today, as the Web and mobile technologies have made it possible and imperative to collect massive quantities of data on customers, competitors, and more. Yet the tools and processes for making sense of that data, analyzing it in real time and using it wisely, are still a work in progress at companies as diverse as Google and Bank of America.  This problem and opportunity of Big Data is a product of the open-source software and infrastructure that powers it, from Cassandra to Hadoop to Linux. At the same time, many of the principles that govern open source offer the scalability and flexibility necessary for the effective adoption of Big Data. OSBC2011 offers the chance to connect with the developers, users and companies behind the most significant open-source Big Data technologies, learning their strategies so that you can make your business more effectively data-driven, as well.

Why You Should Attend

SD ISSA CYBER SUMMIT

Location: Cubic Conference Center
                9333 Balboa Ave San Diego, CA 92123-1589

What really matters in Cyber Security - where the opportunities are!

General theme/key objectives: Collaboratively identify, assess and then distill the key cyber issues and activities we must all address collectively, to then tailor our organizational capabilities and products around them. Otherwise the current high level organizational and political focus in cyber will continue with no government consensus on an actionable technical way forward. Thus industry needs to decipher and decide what THEY collectively see as the key technical actions to move "cyber security" forward asap, as the threat is upon us ALL NOW  

If you saw 60 minutes Monday night, you know there are many security incidents happening NOW (as all the IA folks know anyway): MANY banks ($100m stolen already THIS year, of KNOWN thefts), power plants being affected (one in Brazil, that had a several million folks w/o power for many days), etc, etc that have ALREADY been and are being comprised NOW...   Even our own "CENTCOM" command, among many others!

Until February of this year, ADM McConnell was the nation's top spy. As chief of national intelligence, he oversaw the Central Intelligence Agency, the Defense Intelligence Agency and the National Security Agency.
Today it's not only possible, all of that has actually happened, plus a lot more we don't even know about. 
It's why President Obama has made cyber war defense a top national priority and why some people are already saying that the next big war is less likely to begin with a bang than a blackout.  "Can you imagine your life without electric power or electronic banking ?"  as all it will take is ONE partial successful effort to destroy our confidence in banking - electronic money /  credit is everything now - and we'll all panic....   """
That is, many, many "cyber" threats are in ACTION NOW, as we know cyber crime is huge and growing fast, but we have seemingly no enterprise, top down, technical "implementation level" action on DOING collaborative IA things as a USA TEAM... So THIS is YOUR opportunity to speak up!!!

TIJUANA -- They gather each day outside the iron gates, waiting to feed their hunger.

As the short blast of a whistle breaks the calm, they inch their way toward the kitchen at Casa de los Pobres, where a mixture of squash and bologna, soup and tortillas await them. Some in this downtrodden flock of 600 lean on crutches or walkers, and others rock their babies in their arms. Many wear long faces brought on by hunger and despair. This is the every day affair.

This year on December 22nd, about 1,400 families will recieve food, a blanket, one pair of shoes, gifts, and fresh fruit from Casa de Los Pobres, assisted by the hardworking, dedicated, and loving nuns that collect and distribute the goods every year.

Friends of the Poor is proud to support this day annually and asks for your supporting donation. Volunteers welcome.
