 Topic: Security Controls & Innovation Over the past decade, a broad set of information security controls and processes have been adopted by businesses in response to compliance, complexity, cost, and growth pressures. IBM has been at the forefront of acquiring and developing innovative solutions to address these controls, with billions of dollars invested across organic development and more than a dozen related acquisitions. This session will provide a business-focused perspective on what these controls are and why they have become so prevalent in recent years.About the Presenter

Topic: Challenges to Accountability and Securing Data The landscape has changed - not just economically and politically, but in the
very nature of how Corporate America operates in the new millennium. Fading
into the distance are the days where corporations kept their
"secrets" in locked file cabinets behind closed doors. Gone are the
days where corporate espionage involved turning employees into moles and late
night escapades scurrying away the "11 herbs and spices recipe" in a
briefcase.
The new reality of how and where Corporate America stores information has radically outpaced employee security training and a fundamental understanding of how to properly handle valuable data. Gone are the days where access to sensitive information required physical access. In today's connected workplace, data is pervasive and access to it from BYOD is only accelerating the loss of data control and accountability.
