6th Annual Conference. June 04, 2014. San Francisco

There is still much speculation around the security and privacy implications of applications in the cloud. With speculation comes fear, and with fear come misinformation and myths. This panel session will address many of these myths and uncertainties about apps in the cloud. It will provide guidance for how businesses can evaluate cloud vendors from a security and privacy perspective, and will offer a glimpse into best practices to protects the data and the privacy of your users.
Core topics to be addressed:
- Centralized cloud governance model;

New global research conducted in January 2013 measured where end users are seeing challenges with IT, the usability of solutions, and security. Results show more than half of 674 respondents are compelled by slow or overly restrictive IT, or solutions or security that lack usability, to use workarounds either every day or sometimes. Such workarounds are out of compliance with policy and bring additional privacy and security risk.

Will your Cloud fail the next audit? Do you have a handle on your risk strategy for the Cloud? Is this level of maturity only suited for Enterprises with large budgets? Can smaller organizations effectively manage risk as they consume Cloud services? They can!

How would you define "big data"? To Sonian, "big data" is a cloud-powered data repository designed to manage. But it took a long time to get to this point - "big data" has taken a significant journey over the past few years. We've seen it morph into various themes; a big career opportunity for data scientists; the system of record; how the cloud can be used to effectively solve the data problem; and many others. Regardless of the form "big data" takes, it seems as though there are endless possibilities to success.

Chip design is at the core of consumer electronics: smart phones, tablets, computers, HDTV, networking, etc. It is a $300B market that has been following Moore’s Law for 40 years: double the transistors density every two years.

This exponential complexity growth is reaching the limit of conventional computing frameworks. A single logical simulation of a chip exceeds 20 CPU years. Physical verification, which checks that a chip meets strict manufacturability rules, is reaching 100 CPU years. Many of these simulations are needed throughout a chip design cycle.

Choosing a cloud provider is critical. Making a bad choice can ruin a company and your career. Learn how to make sure you make the right choice.
