An Organisation-wide Investigation into the Human Factors-Related Causes of H...Lloyd's Register Energy
This document summarizes the findings of an organizational investigation into human factors contributions to hydrocarbon releases on offshore platforms. The investigation identified several underlying human and organizational failures that increase the risk of hydrocarbon releases, including failures in competency management, lack of planning, understaffing, reactive maintenance approaches, poor procedures, siloed work, and design issues. The investigation recommends that companies integrate human factors experts into the design process, incident investigations, and develop programs to promote organizational learning and resilience to prevent hydrocarbon releases.
The document discusses how to justify increased budgets for facilities monitoring to prevent disasters. It recommends using a three step process: 1) Explain why monitoring is important based on the organization's mission, 2) Describe how downtime could impact goals and how monitoring prevents this, 3) Provide a specific proposal outlining monitoring equipment and costs. A case study shows how the University of Northern Colorado used this approach to get approval for a leak detection system that quickly identified a problem and prevented major downtime costs and issues.

Calculating Downtime Costs: How Much Should You Spend on DR?Rackspace
This document discusses calculating downtime costs and developing a disaster recovery (DR) plan. It notes that 59% of Fortune 500 companies experience over 1.6 hours of downtime per week, costing the average company $5,600 per minute of downtime. Developing a DR plan with recovery point and recovery time objectives (RPOs and RTOs) that considers people, processes, policies and technology can help organizations restore operations more quickly. The roles and responsibilities for developing and maintaining a DR plan should be clearly defined between the business and any technology partners involved. Testing DR plans regularly is important to ensure they will work effectively during an actual outage.

Cloud computing threats
One of the biggest challenges information security leaders have is being able to effectively communicate the value of their team’s efforts across the organization .Here the ability to accurately report on their organization’s state of security and communicate the benefits of a proactive security effort in a language the rest of the organization can understand. This session will draw from the experience of seasoned CISOs with proven track records in enabling core business objectives by influencing key stakeholders in the organization. These risk and information security leaders will share their advice on how to effectively create and demonstrate security’s value. The security function is often seen as doing security for its own sake, rather than for the benefit of the business, and so misses the point of security entirely which is about managing risk to acceptable levels.
The security function all too often acts in a condescending manner thinking it knows what is best for the business when in fact it is just one of the various functions in which they have the organizations for business decisions. Business executives are far more interested in what is happening with information security than ever, thanks to a plethora of high-profile, very visible breaches and security incidents.
In recent years the level of attention paid to cybersecurity issues by organizations has skyrocketed. Cyber risk is now a board-level concern, and IT security budgets have risen accordingly. Despite the increased attention, it is not clear whether firms have become more sophisticated in how they manage cyber risks. Historically, most firms have made cybersecurity investment decisions by adhering to industry best practices, without necessarily developing a detailed understanding of their overall cyber risk first. Risk management is predicated on risk quantification, and many researchers have attempted to quantify cyber risks using quantitative metrics such as return on investment.

ITIL Service Management: Integrating Normal Incident, Major Incident & Servic...Jesse Andrew
The nature of complex & dynamic systems makes it challenging to predict how any action will positively or negatively impact service availability and performance. However, one certainty that you can take to the bank is that eventually these systems will fail and require rapid recovery. Another certainty is that due to the dynamic nature of these same systems the impact and criticality of service failure can change quickly, dramatically and unexpectedly requiring very different support models.
The ITIL Service Management process framework identifies three separate but highly dependent processes to deal with this challenge. However in most organizations these support practices are implemented as silos with little to no integration. In this informative session Troy DuMoulin, VP of Research and Development at Pink Elephant will provide an overview of the three separate processes. He will outline how they are related and how each one is triggered to support the rapid escalation or de-escalation of your service recovery processes to ensure the best possible Mean Time To Repair balanced with cost and risk.

_______________________________
Imagine an IT department where there is no agreement on how much impact a given incident has on the business customer. In this organization one person believes an incident to represent a minor impact while another believes the sky is falling. If this sounds familiar then consider that an organization that does not have a solid agreement around a model for establishing ticket priority has no hope of supporting published service level agreements.
We live in an age of relativism where a high value is placed on the concept of independent thought and self-direction. However, when it comes to coordinated support activities it is critical that organizations have agreement on shared truth related to the impact and urgency of a service outage or the sequencing of changes based on value and risk. Without this basic but critical policy, process and cross-functional collaboration is next to impossible.
In this deep dive on prioritization, escalation, and alerting, Troy DuMoulin, VP of Research and Development at Pink Elephant explores how to establish a business driven, multi-factor priority model shared by multiple ITSM processes and how this model drives automation related to escalation and alerting practices.

Beyond the ITIL Binder: Process Improvements Through Critical CommunicationsJesse Andrew
Slides from our recent webinar, Beyond the ITIL Binder: Process Improvements Through Critical Communications. Recording to come shortly!
Abstract:
In an effort to streamline IT with the needs of a business, IT best practice frameworks, such as ITIL, continue to be the go-to resource for IT organizations. Although these frameworks offer guidance, the one-size-fits-all set of best practices often lack specific practical details or examples on how to implement within an organization.
Without a proper communication framework, it becomes difficult to implement and use the best practices set fourth in ITIL. In this presentation, David de Swaan Arons, former ITIL consultant and ITSM manager, reviews critical communication considerations and best practices practices to improve ITIL and ITSM processes.
