Event Overview:
​

20 years ago, most companies could not have imagined the wide-ranging impact that cloud computing would have on their operations and the cybersecurity risks they would face. Today, cloud computing has become a must-have technology for virtually all enterprises, and IT architectures have evolved to support the new ways that the cloud enables people to work.  Cloud giants like Amazon, Microsoft, SFDC, and Google are even investing heavily to offer elastic, pay-as-you-go, cloud services. However, many companies still encounter cloud security challenges. 

In this talk, IT-Harvest Chief Research Analyst Richard Stiennon will reveal the CIO’s journey to securely adopting a cloud-first strategy. 

Topics include:
  • Why cloud transformation is now an imperative
  • How cloud security is disrupting traditional hardware appliance markets
  • Why cloud-native architectures matter
​
Stiennon will also share learnings and best practices from his new book Secure Cloud Transformation: The CIO’s Journey, which includes the real-world cloud transformation journeys of 16 progressive IT leaders.

About the Speaker:

Richard Stiennon is Chief Research Analyst for IT-Harvest, the company he founded in 2005 to cover the 2,200 vendors that make up the IT security industry. He has presented on the topic of cybersecurity in 29 countries on six continents and is a lecturer at Charles Sturt University in Australia. He is the author of Surviving Cyberwar (Government Institutes, 2010) and Washington Post bestseller There Will Be Cyberwar. He also writes for Forbes, CSO Magazine, and The Analyst Syndicate, is a member of the advisory board at the Information Governance Initiative, and sits on the Responsible Recycling Technical Advisory Board—the standard for electronic waste. In previous roles, Stiennon was Chief Strategy Officer for Blancco Technology Group, Chief Marketing Officer for Fortinet, Inc. and Vice President of Threat Research at Webroot Software. Prior to that, he was Vice President of Research at Gartner, Inc. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Aerospace Engineering and a Master of Arts in War in the Modern World from King’s College, London.
