UPCOMING EVENTS

8:00am – 9:00am: Registration and Continental Breakfast

9:00am – 10:00am: Six Multi-Cloud Architecture Designs for an Effective Cloud Management

Deploying a multi-tenant application across multiple cloud platforms can be very cumbersome. In this session, attendees will go through 6 multi-cloud architecture designs which can help enterprises build an effective multi-cloud strategy.

In this session, attendees will find the pros and cons of the following:

• Cloudification
• Multi-Cloud Relocation
• Multi-Cloud Refactor
• Multi-Cloud Rebinding
• Multi-Cloud Rebinding with Cloud Brokerage
• Multi-Application Modernization

10:00am – 10:30am:  Refreshment Break

10:30am – 11:30am: Five Steps to Building a Cloud-Ready Application Architecture

Individuals with experience building applications understand that applications designed specifically for the platform on which they’ll run will perform better and are more resilient and easier to manage.

Join us as we discuss:

• How to design the application as a collection of services
• How to decouple the data
• How to design applications that optimize communications between application components
• How to design for performance and scaling
• How to design security into the application and take advantage of native features of IAM

11:30am – 12:30pm: Designing a Business-Driven Cloud Security Architecture

Joseph Kupiec, Team Lead, Cloud Solutions Group, PSM Partners

Failure is not an option. Risk must be minimized at all costs. Unfortunately, when defining, creating, and implementing security architectures, we often focus too much on the technology and risk management at the cost of value add to the business. Regardless of whether security architectures succeed or fail technically, ones that neglect to include or downplay the value add to business, will always fail the business.

What makes a successful security architecture? Yes, we must manage risk, prevent identity sprawl, move towards Zero-Trust, etc. but, we must also keep one objective in mind throughout the entire security architecture lifecycle – enabling the business. The best security architects, programs, and architectures not only meet or exceed their technical requirements, but more importantly (let me say it again), they all enable the business. Information security professionals and the industry itself (generally speaking) have a bad reputation. Many, if not all of us, have experienced the groans and sighs when walking into a room of our colleagues. “Why don’t they just leave us alone?”, “I bet you they’re going to require ten more characters for our passwords”, “Why don’t they just let us do what we [the business] needs to do?”. How do we move forward?

It starts and ends with us. Designing a Business-Driven Cloud Security Architecture is not an easy task. It will require us to change our mindsets, adapt the way we approach issues, modify the way we communicate, and transform our relationships with the business. Some of the important items to be discussed are treating the organization as a single entity rather than a set of cooperating departments, aligning information and communication technologies with business processes, and treating cloud security architecture as a business issue. The application of the 6 W’s to gain a clearer understanding of business requirements for systems will be explained. Upon conclusion of this presentation, you will have the necessary information to change those groans and sighs to cheers and smiles.
