Shared drives are a fact of life for many organizations, and when organized properly they become excellent information management tools. But if you aren’t using RM best practices to manage them, they can morph into massive public folders filled with confusing and unstructured records. These unstructured shared drives can lead to a variety of issues including compliance and legal risks, increased retrieval times, versioning issues and unnecessary duplication of documents.
This slide deck presents a project in which TAB successfully helped an oil and gas company organize their shared drive.

Planning for Governance in Yammer While Working Like a NetworkPerficient, Inc.
Enterprise social networks require governance to operate most effectively, especially in highly regulated industries. It's a slippery slope - the more restrictive your governance policies, the less likely you are to see users collaborating naturally and often. Plus, when you’re used to thinking of “governance” in a SharePoint context, it can be difficult to understand how to govern a Yammer network properly while still encouraging user engagement.
When embracing enterprise social, it's important to understand the differences between social collaboration and the collaboration characteristics of older, document-first systems.
In this session, we covered:
-Best practices for governing a Yammer network
-The philosophical differences of governance in SharePoint and Yammer, and why sometimes less is more
-The features and functions that Yammer provides for governing users and content
Organizational Change Management for Data- and Analytics-Driven ProjectsDATAVERSITY
The disparity between expecting change and managing it – the “change gap” – is growing at an unprecedented pace.
Information management professionals and business leaders must concern themselves with the organization’s acceptance of these efforts. To be successful in achieving the larger enterprise goals, these initiatives must transform the organization. However, it takes more than wishful thinking to bridge the gap.
The complexities of engaging behavioral and enterprise transformation are too often underestimated at great peril. In this session, William will provide specific organizational change management tasks to put in your data and analytics project backlog.
Making data based decisions makes instinctive sense, and evidence is mounting that it makes strong commercial sense too.
Whilst being aware of this kind of potential is undoubtedly valuable, knowing it and doing something about it are two very different things.
So how do you go about becoming a data driven organization?
And how does the Data Management Maturity Assessment help in achieving your data strategy goals?

Getting to Paperlite: Strategies for More Efficient Records Management Part 1TAB
Everyone wants to work with less paper, but many organizations have no idea how to get there. This presentation shares the records management best practices you need to get to “paperlite.”
Solving Shared Drives: 10 Tips for Cleaning Up, Organizing, and Migrating Con...Barclay T. Blair
The sexy Information Governance problems today are (in rough order of sex appeal):
Social Media
Big Data
Cloud Computing
Somewhere waaaay down at the bottom of this list comes, “Governing shared network drives.”
However, in real life – outside of the hype cycle – solving the shared drive problem is right near the top of the list for most organizations. The massive growth of SharePoint has been driven in large part by enterprises (or at least, departments within enterprises) looking for an incremental and easy replacement for shared drives.
However, most project teams tend to underestimate just how “incremental” the shift from shared drives to SharePoint or ECM is. In fact, in my experience, the problem is vexing enough that many project teams effectively throw up their hands and end up moving the big pile of unstructured manure from one unmanaged, fragrant corral to another (albeit a less fragrant, more attractive corral).
In this presentation we outline the Shared Drive problem, and provide tern practical tips for addressing it.

Module 12: Controlling and Monitoring Network Storage
Network storage for users is a finite resource that must be managed appropriately to ensure that it remains available for all users. If network storage is not monitored and managed, it can become filled with irrelevant data, such as personal music or movies. Irrelevant data increases network storage costs and in some cases can prevent useful data from placement on the network storage. In this module, you will learn how to monitor and manage network storage.
Lessons
Monitoring Network Storage
Controlling Network Storage Utilization
Managing File Types on Network Storage
Lab : Controlling and Monitoring Network Storage
Configuring FSRM Quotas
Configuring File Screening
Configuring File Classification and File Management
After completing this module, students will be able to:
Describe how to monitor network storage by using FSRM.
Explain how to manage quotas by using FSRM.
Describe how to implement file screening, classification management, and file management tasks by using FSRM.
"Our file shares are a cluttered mess. Users have been dumping information into our drives without direction and it has built up over years.”
This is what we hear from nearly every organization we encounter. The thought of classifying, organizing and automatically disposing of mountains (electronically speaking) of information is very intimidating.

Understanding the Hybrid Enivronment: An Introduction for Records ManagersTAB
Are you finding managing electronic and paper records in the same environment to be a challenge? You aren’t the only one.
The increasing emphasis on electronic records in our field is undeniable. A recent TAB survey found that over half of the respondents had replaced at least 20% of their files with electronic records, at a time when paper record volumes continue to grow.
In the same survey, 20% of organizations reported that over 60% of their record collections were a hybrid between paper and electronic records.
This hybrid environment is creating a two-headed beast that presents new records management challenges, and this presentation will help you begin to understand what it entails.
Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck

On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
