Key Cloud Computing Considerations in 2020 and the Impact on Security:
Steven Woodward of Cloud Perspectives will share some key perspectives on cloud and cloud 2.0.
Steve will highlight what cloud computing is and what the next generation services are that are enabled by cloud computing.
When using externally-hosted public clouds, what is the impact on IT Security? How does cloud increase or ease the pain in 2020?
Governments and enterprises need to leverage the available technology, such as Cloud Federation, IoT and Blockchain, in order to innovate, but must recognize that the technology alone will not solve all of the many challenges that they are faced with.
Attendees will participate in discussions on the opportunities and challenges in this era of cloud computing.
