| IDC
India Security and Continuity Conference 2005 |
| Security and
continuity continues to be one of the hottest issues
facing enterprises. Globalization and advances in
information technology present opportunities for
enterprises in Asia/Pacific to expand their addressable
markets and realize efficiencies by connecting
electronically with trading partners. This increasingly
distributed environment requires organizations to have
always-on connectivity and requires an IT infrastructure
that is available, secure, protected and reliable.
Enterprises security perimeters are also becoming
increasingly fluid, as they continue to connect
electronically to more partners, who may have varying
levels of IT security sophistication.
In addition to the risks from malware, CIOs have to
deal with the increase in criminal activities and
terrorism on the web; privacy violations, identity
thefts, industrial theft and espionage. Enterprises also
have to deal with regulatory compliance requirements, as
more countries implement privacy and data protection
rules. |
| Conference
That Covers All |
|
Infrastructure is a simple word that describes a complex reality. Servers, storage, software, network structure and service providers all form part of the web of infrastructure in a modern business. Providing the enterprise with infrastructure goes beyond just buying hardware and software. It means deciding on the best way to integrate the elements. It even means deciding which elements of the infrastructure can be outsourced and which need to be handled in-house. The hottest issues in business today, from outsourcing and networking, to e-business, all revolve around infrastructure, and that's why it's time for a conference that covers it all.

| Essential
Strategy for disaster |
|
A well thought out business continuity strategy is measured by both the
technical response and the competence and capability of the management to
deliver a business response. However, building a secure, reliable and
resilient IT infrastructure is only one facet of business continuity. In
addition to disaster recovery, risk management, and security elements, a
well-defined business continuity strategy should also include components
from facilities management, supply chain management, crisis management and
communications, health and safety, quality management and knowledge
management. This holistic approach ensures that the IT infrastructure can
support a CIOs' timely response to a business incident.
Unfortunately, the recent IDC Continuum 2004 survey shows that despite
the increased awareness of business continuity as a concept for the CIOs,
the actual implementation in the region remains at a nascent stage. For
example, disaster recovery solutions, an important aspect of business
continuity, are yet to be accepted by Asian enterprises. Most enterprises in
the region still take for granted the day-to-day running of communication
networks and assume they are available 24 x 7, 365 days a year.

| Necessary
guidance |
|
But where do you turn to for guidance on existing investments? Where do you
get real advice on absolute priorities when considering future expenditure?
What about dealing with budget cuts that are also continuing to impact
security and continuity budgets?
This event is designed to help CIOs understand how you can capitalize on
existing investments, extend the infrastructure you already have in place,
and comprehend the real value of the investment you are making. Discover the
difference between adequate security, that enables you to continue to grow,
and total security, that could restrict innovation and growth!
