Today CIO’s are business leaders as much as they are technology leaders ~ The CIO Challenge will draw compelling context from cross-industry CIO’s & IT Heads where we’ll address current trending CIO challenges and the impact these challenges will have on business.
Some of this being addressed include:
Management of BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) ~ With the commercialisation, affordability and integration of personal and business data within smart devices such as phones and tablets, more end-users than ever before are integrating these devices into both their business and personal environments.How are CIO’s dealing with the risks and challenges associated with end user owned devices such as how to enforce controls onto these devices and the legislative impact thereof.
Management of Enterprise Mobility ~ Many organizations are finding value in the productivity of end-users when providing mobility to some or all of their staff either through the use of laptops, mobile phones or tablets. Not to be confused with BYOD where the end-user owns the device, management of enterprise mobility is the management of enterprise owned devices that enable end-users to operate from within and outside the perimeters of the enterprise.How are CIO’s dealing with the risks and challenges associated with mobility such as data loss through theft; costs of enabling communications outside of the enterprise; or the threat of malware due to assets operating outside of the enterprises controlled environment.
Management of Big Data ~ With the recent popularization of Cloud Computing, and the drive for better efficiencies through centralization and virtualization, the management of big data has become more of a pertinent issue.How are CIO’s dealing with the risks and challenges associated with the capturing, curating, storing, searching, sharing, transferring, analysing, and visualizing the “big data” in their environments to better identify trends and opportunities for the enterprise.
POPI Compliance ~ The South African government has recently developed the Protection Of Personal Information Act which sets conditions on how enterprise can process information. This new piece of complex legislation is considered to be a hybrid of the United States, United Kingdom and Australian information protection acts making it a first of its kind.How are CIO’s dealing with the risks and challenges associated with POPI Compliance such as illustrating the value of complying to the act to the enterprise, and understanding the impact of what non-compliance will have on the enterprise.
This is the right place to find answers to common questions, such as ‘how do you get started?’, ‘what tools and technologies do you need?’, ‘how can you measure ROI?’ and much, much more.
The programme will bring together expert keynotes, real world case studies led by senior CIO’s who are tackling these challenges in their organisations. Join us to better understand how you can address these challenges and bring more value to your enterprise.The challenge covers key topics discussing BYOD, Mobility, Big Data, Security and POPI compliance.
