Migrating workloads for any environment can be a resource intensive and expensive exercise to perform. For many organisations that run on legacy, on-premise technology stacks; moving to the cloud or other environments can potentially drive complete overhaul of operations if complexities are not managed correctly; increasing costs and impacting business continuity in the process.
Now you can achieve agile migration in a secure, scalable and simple manner using automation and real-time byte-level replication.
Join Simon Mitrevski, Manager, Solutions Consulting at Carbonite + Webroot, an OpenText company, to discover a painless way to migrate your data with minimal risk and near-zero downtime.

The move to a hybrid working environment demonstrated that a mobile workforce was not just viable, but in many cases also beneficial. However, with users now outside of the protective borders of the corporate network, it also introduced a startling number of new threat vectors.

When budgets are unconstrained, skilled resources are abundant, any digital transformation can be funded and innovation comes thick and fast. Not every idea makes it but as long as one or two does, then it's deemed a success.
Faced with budget cuts, challenges with talent and constant security threats, businesses have to be much more selective about what innovation they invest in.
So, how can IT leaders drive continuous innovation and deliver impactful competitive advantage?

Security and IT operations are critical for enterprises, but up until now, most organizations have handled them separately. With remote and hybrid work here to stay, a constantly evolving threat landscape, and increased pressure to reduce costs, that needs to change.
As organizations modernize their approach to endpoint management, they’re increasingly looking at new technologies and processes to manage and secure their environments.
Strong collaboration between IT ops and security will prove essential to their success.

Digital twins (DTs) combine multi-physics simulation, data analytics, AI/machine learning and other related digital capabilities to enable the continuous monitoring of systems and machines and the provision of predictive and prescriptive outcomes.
Despite the increasing popularity of DTs and the diversity of problems they can address, very few companies have succeeded in progressing their digital twin projects to full scale and leveraging the full potential of this emerging technology.
Daunting interrelated managerial challenges related to developing living learning models, introducing flexible processes, and scaling and integration impede progress.
The workshop will introduce current and emerging uses of digital twins and detail the challenges faced and lessons learned in designing and deploying different digital twins from two mature cases.

The topic of risk is constantly on the forefront of security teams' minds, but as enterprises get more dynamic and hybrid in nature, the nature of risk changes. Add to that the evolving sophistication of cyber threat actors, and it becomes more important to continuously update your understanding of the risks you face, and the options available to mitigate those risks.
A quantitative risk assessment is great for getting really precise about the potential financial impact, the actual dollars attached to any given risk. But most organizations don't need that, and shouldn't wait for it, to start understanding where their risk is growing most and the urgent risks they should work to mitigate.

As digital transformation accelerates, more data and applications are being pushed out to devices and remote users. Companies need to focus on who is accessing corporate resources, from where and why. They need to understand what their data is being used for and be able to identify vulnerabilities rapidly. Improved visibility of user behaviour is critical to reduce the threats from adversaries as well as from insiders.
Key discussion points include, enabling business with IAM and managing access efficiently.

Too many companies focus purely on preventing all breaches and assume that all company resources remain inside corporate firewalls. As remote working and the use of multiple clouds becomes normal, this approach has become outdated. Key discussion points in this roundtable include how companies need to move beyond a traditional preventive ‘castle and moat’ approach to cybersecurity, and how they can take a much more proactive approach.

As companies start to embrace DevSecOps, developers will increasingly act as policy enforcers by building policy into code. Security by design will become more common as security programs align with DevOps to provide the automation required to secure complex technology environments. Developers will start to see baking security into code, not as an inconvenience, but as a critical part of creating new applications rapidly.
Key discussion points will include best practices in DevSecOps and embedding cybersecurity policies into code.

Companies are struggling with increased cybersecurity complexity as they wrestle with a growing number of cybersecurity tools, typically operating independently of each other. A new approach is required where controls are integrated and policy is consistent.
This roundtable will discuss how a cybersecurity mesh can enable the centralised control of policies and the scaling of controls. It will also discuss how a cybersecurity mesh can offer greater flexibility and reliability.

The traditional network infrastructure model of centralised corporate data centres secured by on-premises network perimeters does not work today. Data that once resided in data centres is now in the cloud, on SaaS applications, and on endpoints.
This presentation will focus on the need for companies to transform and modernise their approach to cybersecurity, and adapt to the constantly changing threat landscape. Key takeaways will include, the benefits of a threat informed defence and the how to secure assets that sit outside the traditional network perimeter.

Attacks on critical infrastructure have highlighted the vulnerabilities that emerge as operational technology converges with information technology. Greater digitalisation of the physical world combined with edge computing and new IoT technologies are accelerating the pace of this convergence.
This presentation will discuss the blending of information technology with operational technology and the new threats that this brings, particularly with reference to critical infrastructure.
Key takeaways will include an explanation of the types of vulnerabilities that operational technology presents and the best practices in mitigating the risk of attacks on operational technology.
