Digitizing without compromising on security? Discover how during The Cyber Security Sessions on 1st and 2nd February 2018.
Digitization is now increasingly becoming a condition for success. This fact has been proven time and again by technology-driven companies like Uber, Coolblue and Airbnb. Certainly, a sufficient reason for many organizations to also initiate a digital transformation, allowing them to instantly react to trends, meet specific customer requirements and launch new business models.
But there is one aspect which is often overlooked during the digitization process: data security. Is data security adequately developing along with these digital transformations? This is absolutely crucial, especially as digital processes generally make use of all kinds of personal data. Not merely customer and supply data from business systems, but also big data from sensors and the Internet of Things.
New innovations and external influences are weighing heavily on the impact of digital transformation. New possibilities mean new ways of doing business and will automatically challenge the security strategy. Besides the new innovations, new government rules like GDPR are effecting the way you do your business and will change how you stay secure. There are more and more threats so it is not clear who is attacking who anymore. This requires a security-centric approach where people and companies work together to keep themselves and each other safe.
How can security start forming a fixed part of your digital transformation? This question is going to be a central focus point during the 2018 Cyber Security Sessions – ‘Transform your organization and stay secure’.
