Advanced data analytics and AI may be the engine of an innovative company. But data-driven enterprises, beware: if you’re careless about how you collect, transmit, and secure that data, you could drive your business into the ground. Cyber attackers are exposing companies' most precious secrets. Regulators and legislators in the US and across the globe are sanctioning and fining companies hundreds of millions of dollars for flouting data privacy and security policies. Corporations are now making changes to their IT infrastructure, buying different cloud services, redesigning applications, installing new data management/security products, hiring specialized staff, and choosing to forgo certain IT projects altogether because of increasing regulations, increasing data breaches, and increasing public scrutiny. In this Interop event, get an up-to-date map of the data privacy landscape and learn how your business can take advantage of the best data analytics has to offer, while still maintaining security, compliance, and customer trust.

Agenda

Keynote: How Good Data Goes Very Very Bad
In the pursuit of better customer insights, organizations may gather more personally identifiable data, and employ advanced analytics and AI. However, when these businesses aren’t careful with security and governance, things can go awry in a big way. Here are stories of the worst data breaches and disasters that have come before, and forecasts of what’s to come.

Data Privacy Regulation Landscape for 2022: New Pitfalls to Avoid
US companies with international operations face a patchwork of different data privacy laws and regulations to comply with. Rules even vary state to state. To comply with these ever-evolving rules, businesses must constantly monitor the data privacy regulation landscape. This session will explore the most significant privacy law changes coming in 2022 and what IT teams need to know right now to prepare. 

How Automation Can Make Data Security Easier (and Breaches Less Painful)
The majority of cybersecurity alerts go ignored each day due to sheer volume. Security automation technology reduces the need for overworked security analysts to manually weed through thousands—if not millions—of alerts each year, thus enabling organizations to detect, investigate and remediate cyberthreats without human intervention. This session shares the latest in security automation tools, techniques and best practices. 

Developing Secure, Privacy-Compliant Applications. Sponsored by Checkmarx

You’ll hear insights and best practices for starting and maturing your organization’s effective use of these powerful products and approaches to build in better security and compliance.

Data Governance Tools & Techniques for a Data-Driven Business
It’s not sexy, but solid data governance can help your organization minimize risk, reduce costs and increase the value of your data. Equally important: data governance is about enabling employees to make better decisions by giving them relevant, trustworthy and easy-to-find data. This session shares best practices for data governance in the age of analytics.
