Closing the Governance Gap - Enabling Governed Self-Service AnalyticsPrivacera
Data democratization and data protection are conflicting forces that both need to be addressed through data governance and security by defining, deploying, and auditing data access control policies. Yet there is a latent “governance gap”: the individuals in the organization accountable for articulating and specifying data policies do not have enough knowledge of the systems to understand how policies are to be implemented, and the technologists who understand the system are not familiar enough with data policy drivers to appropriately define and deploy data protection policies.
This webinar is a must for personnel with an analytics and technology mandate to learn about the root causes of this governance gap and consider ideas for closing the gap.

Business Semantics for Data Governance and StewardshipPieter De Leenheer
Data quality and regulations are perpetual drivers for Data Governance and Stewardship solutions that systematically monitor the execution of data policy. And yet, there is a long road ahead to achieve Trust in Data. It is still a relatively unknown topic or comes with trauma from past failed attempts; there is no political framework with executive champions, leading to reactive rather than proactive behavior, and software support is marginal.
Data Governance and Stewardship requires automation of business semantics management at its nucleus, in order to achieve a wide adoption and confluence of Data Trust between business and IT communities in the organization.
In this lecture, we start by reviewing 'C' in ICT and reflect on the dilemma: what is the most important quality of data: truth or trust? We review the wide spectrum of business semantics. We visit the different phases of data pain as a company grows, and we map their situation on this spectrum of semantics.
Next, we introduce the principles and framework for business semantics management to support data governance and stewardship focusing on the structural (what), processual (how) and organizational (who) components. We illustrate with stories from the field.

Predictive Analytics to Discover Risk.
Organizations are seeking new ways to transform their rapidly growing data into insight that mitigates risks and unlocks new opportunities. However, using the traditional reporting tools to look for unusual patterns in large data sets is like finding a needle in a haystack.
The problem is not the resources, the personnel, or the data. It’s that many organizations simply don’t have the advanced analytics required to arrange the data, identify suspicious patterns and weaknesses; at least not fast enough. There’s too much data and not enough analytics!
We need a better way of knowing what the information means — of interpreting the data to discover an unknown business risk or opportunity as it happens or, even better, anticipate the next one. For most organizations, reducing transaction errors and misuse continues to be one of the largest untapped opportunities to manage costs, improve top-line revenue recognition, and ensure compliance with policies.
Join SafePaaS CEO Adil Khan as he discusses how to discover patterns in all types of structured and unstructured enterprise data, and use this insight to improve bottom line, significantly reduce cash leakage and post-audit recovery costs, improve revenue recognition timing, safeguard the integrity of financial statements, reduce the cost of internal and external audits, increase visibility into controls environment and mitigate exposure to fraud.
As the strategic importance of data has increased, new approaches to customer analytics have emerged as well. As customer interactions with companies grow and diversify, the need to integrate data faster and deliver real-time insights is critical. This presentation explores the underlying trends driving companies to become more data-driven and invest in customer analytics. And, it outlines three types of approaches to capturing, managing, analyzing, and activating customer knowledge and insights.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. 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.
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
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).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

Builder.ai Founder Sachin Dev Duggal's Strategic Approach to Create an Innova...Ramesh Iyer
In today's fast-changing business world, Companies that adapt and embrace new ideas often need help to keep up with the competition. However, fostering a culture of innovation takes much work. It takes vision, leadership and willingness to take risks in the right proportion. Sachin Dev Duggal, co-founder of Builder.ai, has perfected the art of this balance, creating a company culture where creativity and growth are nurtured at each stage.
Data is exploding – primarily driven by Digitization and Connectivity
The trends that are driving the explosion of data are accelerating and converging – according to an IBM estimate over 90% of the data in the world today was created in the last 2 years
This explosion of data has not necessarily translated into results for a majority of people as our ability to deal with all this data has not improved.
Analytics is the science and system that helps us make sense of all this data. It helps us find patterns in the data, derive insights from it and recommend actions to be taken to translate those insights into business outcomes
While the underlying concepts are not new and have existed for many years in different forms such as Business Intelligence, Data Mining, and OLAP – an increase in the new sources of data combined with our ability to correlate these data in real time have dramatically improved the usefulness of the insights we get from the data – leading to truly analytics driven organizations
There are several market leaders who have built their differentiated value proposition based on how they have used data to drive better products and services
