SDForum at SecureWorld September 19, 2007

"Hosting, Outsourcing and Compliance: Developing Security and Securing Development"

SDForum presents discussions on the intersection of security and technology innovation. How are companies integrating security and compliance into in- and out-sourced development? What are the cutting edge technologies for security start-ups and investors? Come hear leading technologists and investors share their current thinking.

10:30 to 10:45 Welcome: Ames Cornish, Founder of Montebello Partners, SDForum SIG Chair on Security and Member, Board of Directors

10:45 to 11:30 KEYNOTE

11:30 to 12:15 Panel: Best Practices for compliance (PCI, Sarbanes Oxley, etc.) Why should start ups care? How much will it cost? Compliance requirements will vary, depending upon whether a company is trying to address the needs of Sarbanes-Oxley or HIPAA. Companies today can't afford to have their name show up in the front page of the Wall Street Journal associated with a security breach or failure to comply with key regulations

12:15 to 1:00 PM Lunch, possibility of visiting the Secure World exhibits

1:00 pm to 1:45 pm Panel: Venture Capital & Start Ups - Where's the Business? Security technologies are receiving more attention by researchers, government agencies, the military, manufacturers, and end users. An increase in R&D funding, venture capital and investments in security infrastructures have catapulted the field and turned it into a major growth area including detection technologies, storage and archiving, identity control and encryption systems.
1:45 pm to 2:25 pm Panel: Storage and Disaster Recovery-Offsite/Onsite/Outsourced secure storage
Compliance regulations have become more stringent, leading companies to think about how long to keep certain pieces of information and how to securely manage those different levels of storage.

2:25pm to 2:30pm: Closing Remarks and participants are invited to join in a reception, visit the Secure World exhibits
