The SharePoint and Office 365 Security Gap
While thousands of organizations are deploying SharePoint and Office 365 to manage enterprise content, streamline business processes, and deliver enterprise 2.0 collaboration capabilities, compliance and security concerns − and their associated risks − remain top of mind. As the amount of content and user interaction increases, particularly given the enhanced collaborative capabilities of Microsoft's collaboration platforms, the chance for a SharePoint or Office 365 security breach or compliance violation increases as well. A solution that automatically classifies, applies permissions, tracks, encrypts and prevents the inappropriate storage, access and distribution of sensitive content stored in SharePoint and Office 365 is clearly necessary to overcome this confidence gap.

As information ecosystems continue to expand, businesses are searching for ways to combine traditional analytics with a new source of insight: Big Data. But with data flooding in from all kinds of sources, fast access and performance at scale can easily become an issue. One effective approach for solving this challenge is data federation, a method that involves taking the analytical processing to the data, allowing streamlined access to multiple data sources without the expensive ETL overhead or building of semantic layers.
Register for this episode of The Briefing Room to hear veteran Analyst Dr. Robin Bloor as he explains how the prevalence of distributed data calls for a new approach to Big Data. He will be briefed by Mark Theissen of Cirro, who will tout his company’s Data Hub, a data federation solution that provides a single point of access to all enterprise data assets without excessive data movements, preprocessing or staging. He will discuss how data federation differs from virtualization and ETL approaches, and demonstrate how a Cirro deployment solves the analytics challenge of integrating data silos across the data center – and the cloud – using the BI tools you already have on your desktop for real-time distributed analytics.

RWDG Webinar: Using Data Governance to Improve Data UnderstandingDATAVERSITY
For many data-focused initiatives to be considered successful, they require improved documented understanding of the organization’s data. Improvements in data understanding require accountability for the actions of putting clear definition behind your organization’s most valuable data. It makes sense that this process and associated metadata are governed.
In this month’s installment of the Real-World Data Governance webinar series, Bob Seiner will speak about how to focus your data governance program on improving the understanding of your organization’s data. Bob will talk about the data governance roles and processes required to improve the understanding of data and maintain the documented definitions.
In the webinar Bob will discuss:
Metadata associated with improving the understanding of data
How to select the appropriate metadata to improve understanding
Selecting processes to govern associated with improving data understanding
How improved understanding leads to improvements in project ROI
Measuring data understanding to demonstrate governance performance

Taking the Share out of Sharepoint: SharePoint Application Security.Aspenware
The beauty of SharePoint is you can quickly enable the business to do anything anywhere. That freedom and flexibility can create a serious security risk for your organization. With every service and application you roll out you also roll out new ways for hackers to get at your data.
NetSource Secure, HOSTING, and Aspenware are pleased to bring you this critical SharePoint security presentation. In this presentation Senior SharePoint Architect Waughn Hughes and Senior Security Consultant Justin Tibbs will give you the information necessary to assess your SharePoint security risks and develop a plan for mitigating risks.

Who Should Own Data Governance – IT or Business?DATAVERSITY
The question is asked all the time: “What part of the organization should own your Data Governance program?” The typical answers are “the business” and “IT (information technology).” Another answer to that question is “Yes.” The program must be owned and reside somewhere in the organization. You may ask yourself if there is a correct answer to the question.
Join this new RWDG webinar with Bob Seiner where Bob will answer the question that is the title of this webinar. Determining ownership of Data Governance is a vital first step. Figuring out the appropriate part of the organization to manage the program is an important second step. This webinar will help you address these questions and more.
In this session Bob will share:
- What is meant by “the business” when it comes to owning Data Governance
- Why some people say that Data Governance in IT is destined to fail
- Examples of IT positioned Data Governance success
- Considerations for answering the question in your organization
- The final answer to the question of who should own Data Governance
Modernizing Integration with Data VirtualizationDenodo
Watch full webinar here: https://bit.ly/3CMqS0E
Today, businesses have more data and data types combined with more complex ecosystems than they have ever had before. Examples include on-premise data marts, data warehouses, data lakes, applications, spreadsheets, IoT data, sensor data, unstructured, etc. combined with cloud data ecosystems like Snowflake, Big Query, Azure Synapse, Amazon S3, Redshift, Databricks, SaaS apps, such as Salesforce, Oracle, Service Now, Workday, and on and on.
Data, Analytics, Data Science and Architecture teams are struggling to provide the business users with the right data as quickly and efficiently as possible to quickly enable Analytics, Dashboards, BI, Reports, etc. Unfortunately, many enterprises seek to meet this pressing need by utilizing antiquated and legacy 40+ year-old approaches. There is a better way. Proven by thousands of other companies.
As Forrester so astutely reported in their recent Total Economic Impact Study, companies who employed Data Virtualization reported a “65% decrease in data delivery times over ETL” and an “83% reduction in time to new revenue.”
Join us for this very educational webinar to learn firsthand from Denodo Technologies and Fusion Alliance how:
- Data Virtualization helps your company save time and money by eliminating superfluous ETL pipelines and data replication.
- Data Virtualization can become the cornerstone of your modern data approach to deliver data faster and more efficiently than old legacy approaches at enterprise scale.
- How quickly and easily, Data Virtualization can scale, even in the most complex environments, to create a universal abstraction semantic model(s) for all of your cloud, on premise, structured, unstructured and hybrid data
- Data Mesh and Data Fabric architecture patterns for maximum reuse
- Other customers have used, and are using, Data Virtualization to tackle their toughest data integration and data delivery challenges
- Fusion Alliance can help you define a data strategy tailored to your organization’s needs and requirements, and how they can help you achieve success and enable your business with self-service capabilities
This document summarizes key points about implementing SharePoint in a regulated environment for records management. It notes that while SharePoint has become a viable option for basic records management needs, additional customization, configuration or third party tools are often needed to address gaps like email management, digital preservation or complex non-document objects. The document stresses the importance of having an information architecture, governance structure, training program and engaging users to ensure a successful SharePoint implementation for records management purposes.

Ask anyone who knows, and they’ll tell you candidly: traditional Master Data Management programs require not just tools, technologies and people, but also a level of cooperation and collaboration in the business that can be very difficult to manage. Many of the consequent hurdles that appear stem from long cycle times and lack of transparency into the creation and management of the rules that govern such programs. But now, the power of Hadoop 2.0 has opened up a very different method of action.
Register for this episode of The Briefing Room to learn from veteran Analyst Dr. Robin Bloor who will explain how the Hadoop ecosystem, powered by YARN, can transform MDM from a segmented, often disjointed set of business processes, into a much tighter platform that can finally deliver on the original promise of the discipline. He’ll be briefed by George Corugedo of RedPoint Global, who will showcase his company’s unified data management platform, which weaves together the best practices of traditional MDM with the power and flexibility of Hadoop.

SPFest Chicago - Practical Tools and Techniques for the SharePoint Business A...Richard Harbridge
This document summarizes a presentation on practical tools and techniques for SharePoint business analysts and information architects. The presentation covers several topics:
1. Why SharePoint BA/IA can be difficult due to the large and complex nature of SharePoint and differing stakeholder needs.
2. The importance of identifying objectives and prioritizing them based on value and difficulty. Objectives should be specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and time-bound.
3. Best practices for SharePoint projects such as using an iterative approach, prototyping solutions, and gathering feedback continuously.
4. Tools and techniques for visualizing and communicating SharePoint concepts such as mind mapping, card sorting, and wireframing
Automated taxonomies and metadata in the cloud can streamline organization of digital assets but also introduce risks. Cloud-based tools can automatically tag and categorize files uploaded based on content analysis to simplify search and access. However, relying on automated systems may miscategorize some content and storing metadata in the cloud raises security and privacy concerns regarding sensitive business information.
Understanding possible future technologies is often overlooked when implementing current information systems. I propose rather than just considering current technology when implementing information systems organisations should look to future technologies and predict how they will be used and then design current systems with a future state in mind.
This session will take a look at the current best practices within Azure and Office 365 and how using some of the cutting-edge innovations are changing the way organisations work. I’ll demonstrate how Artificial Intelligence (AI) is impacting the way we consider information and records management.

Who Should Own Data Governance – IT or Business?DATAVERSITY
The question is asked all the time: “What part of the organization should own your Data Governance program?” The typical answers are “the business” and “IT (information technology).” Another answer to that question is “Yes.” The program must be owned and reside somewhere in the organization. You may ask yourself if there is a correct answer to the question.
Join this new RWDG webinar with Bob Seiner where Bob will answer the question that is the title of this webinar. Determining ownership of Data Governance is a vital first step. Figuring out the appropriate part of the organization to manage the program is an important second step. This webinar will help you address these questions and more.
In this session Bob will share:
- What is meant by “the business” when it comes to owning Data Governance
- Why some people say that Data Governance in IT is destined to fail
- Examples of IT positioned Data Governance success
- Considerations for answering the question in your organization
- The final answer to the question of who should own Data Governance
Modernizing Integration with Data VirtualizationDenodo
Watch full webinar here: https://bit.ly/3CMqS0E
Today, businesses have more data and data types combined with more complex ecosystems than they have ever had before. Examples include on-premise data marts, data warehouses, data lakes, applications, spreadsheets, IoT data, sensor data, unstructured, etc. combined with cloud data ecosystems like Snowflake, Big Query, Azure Synapse, Amazon S3, Redshift, Databricks, SaaS apps, such as Salesforce, Oracle, Service Now, Workday, and on and on.
Data, Analytics, Data Science and Architecture teams are struggling to provide the business users with the right data as quickly and efficiently as possible to quickly enable Analytics, Dashboards, BI, Reports, etc. Unfortunately, many enterprises seek to meet this pressing need by utilizing antiquated and legacy 40+ year-old approaches. There is a better way. Proven by thousands of other companies.
As Forrester so astutely reported in their recent Total Economic Impact Study, companies who employed Data Virtualization reported a “65% decrease in data delivery times over ETL” and an “83% reduction in time to new revenue.”
Join us for this very educational webinar to learn firsthand from Denodo Technologies and Fusion Alliance how:
- Data Virtualization helps your company save time and money by eliminating superfluous ETL pipelines and data replication.
- Data Virtualization can become the cornerstone of your modern data approach to deliver data faster and more efficiently than old legacy approaches at enterprise scale.
- How quickly and easily, Data Virtualization can scale, even in the most complex environments, to create a universal abstraction semantic model(s) for all of your cloud, on premise, structured, unstructured and hybrid data
- Data Mesh and Data Fabric architecture patterns for maximum reuse
- Other customers have used, and are using, Data Virtualization to tackle their toughest data integration and data delivery challenges
- Fusion Alliance can help you define a data strategy tailored to your organization’s needs and requirements, and how they can help you achieve success and enable your business with self-service capabilities

Ask anyone who knows, and they’ll tell you candidly: traditional Master Data Management programs require not just tools, technologies and people, but also a level of cooperation and collaboration in the business that can be very difficult to manage. Many of the consequent hurdles that appear stem from long cycle times and lack of transparency into the creation and management of the rules that govern such programs. But now, the power of Hadoop 2.0 has opened up a very different method of action.
Register for this episode of The Briefing Room to learn from veteran Analyst Dr. Robin Bloor who will explain how the Hadoop ecosystem, powered by YARN, can transform MDM from a segmented, often disjointed set of business processes, into a much tighter platform that can finally deliver on the original promise of the discipline. He’ll be briefed by George Corugedo of RedPoint Global, who will showcase his company’s unified data management platform, which weaves together the best practices of traditional MDM with the power and flexibility of Hadoop.

Similar to Tips & Tricks For Architecting & Administrating Highly Utilised Collaboration Environments (SUGUK 2014-02-11) (20)
Automated taxonomies and metadata in the cloud can streamline organization of digital assets but also introduce risks. Cloud-based tools can automatically tag and categorize files uploaded based on content analysis to simplify search and access. However, relying on automated systems may miscategorize some content and storing metadata in the cloud raises security and privacy concerns regarding sensitive business information.
Understanding possible future technologies is often overlooked when implementing current information systems. I propose rather than just considering current technology when implementing information systems organisations should look to future technologies and predict how they will be used and then design current systems with a future state in mind.
This session will take a look at the current best practices within Azure and Office 365 and how using some of the cutting-edge innovations are changing the way organisations work. I’ll demonstrate how Artificial Intelligence (AI) is impacting the way we consider information and records management.
Information and Records Management in SharePoint (SharePoint Saturday 2014)Randy Perkins-Smart
Documents, documents and more documents. Most of us work in organisations that rely on documentation. But do we manage them? This interactive session aims to answer key Information and Records Management (IRM) questions related to SharePoint:
• What is IRM?
• Why is IRM important?
• How can SharePoint help with IRM?
• What other Microsoft technologies can help with your IRM strategy?
• How free tools can help with IRM?
• What third party tools are out there to help with IRM?
• The true cost of IRM?
Technologies covered:
• SharePoint 2013
• SharePoint Online
• Exchange 2013
• Exchange Online
• PowerShell
• OneDrive for Business
This document discusses challenges and solutions related to using SharePoint as a document management system. It addresses issues such as lack of audit history, too much audit data, sensitive information being disclosed, and useful information not being found. It provides recommendations around templates, grammar, and compliance tools to help address these challenges. Links are provided to resources about classification tools, eDiscovery and search tools, and ensuring compliance with standards like PCI.
Is SharePoint 2010 the panacea to the shortcomings & difficulties we had with...Randy Perkins-Smart
After years of struggling with Lotus Notes and Office 2003, in 2007 a document centric organisation decided to deploy SharePoint 2007 and Office 2007. Their hope:
• To standardise office templates
• create and deploy over 20 content types (across multiple site collections)
• use workflow to automate document reviews and approval process
• ensure that metadata was adhered to
• provide an enterprise search platform to staff
This presentation explains the real life difficulties and successes they had. For example should they develop custom code or buy third party products to cover the functionality gap? Should they spend money on automating tasks or let the users continue doing some tasks manually? But ultimately the aim is to answer if SharePoint 2010 is panacea to their SharePoint 2007 difficulties?
According to a study, information workers spend nearly 20 hours per week searching for and analyzing information, costing organizations over $28,000 per worker per year. An enterprise search solution can help by allowing users to search multiple repositories and line of business applications, facilitating federated and faceted searching across resources to improve information finding. The solution can be customized and scales with an organization, becoming part of the business productivity infrastructure to save time and money.
High performance Serverless Java on AWS- GoTo Amsterdam 2024Vadym Kazulkin
Java is for many years one of the most popular programming languages, but it used to have hard times in the Serverless community. Java is known for its high cold start times and high memory footprint, comparing to other programming languages like Node.js and Python. In this talk I'll look at the general best practices and techniques we can use to decrease memory consumption, cold start times for Java Serverless development on AWS including GraalVM (Native Image) and AWS own offering SnapStart based on Firecracker microVM snapshot and restore and CRaC (Coordinated Restore at Checkpoint) runtime hooks. I'll also provide a lot of benchmarking on Lambda functions trying out various deployment package sizes, Lambda memory settings, Java compilation options and HTTP (a)synchronous clients and measure their impact on cold and warm start times.
Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation ParametersSafe Software
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.

43. Security - Chinese / Ethical walls
In business, a Chinese wall is an
information barrier implemented
within a firm organization to
prevent exchanges of information
that could cause conflicts of
interest.
For example, a Chinese wall may
be erected to separate and isolate
persons who make investment
decisions from persons who are
privy to undisclosed material
information which may influence
those decisions.
