Selecting SAP S/4 HANA- Digital Core migration strategy - Greenfield vs Brow...Akash Agrawal
While moving to S/4HANA an important consideration is to select the right transition path i.e. Greenfield vs Brownfield. Each client need to consider several aspects to decide the best fit approach. Based on our vast experience while working with clients (varied based on size, industry, landscape complexity) we have formulated a framework to identify the best approach.
End-User Computing (EUC) is the realm of spreadsheets, word processing, presentations, email, stand-alone users, individual devices, and file sharing applications like Dropbox. It is fair to say that EUC is not a traditional focus of Data Governance in many organizations, although individual aspects of EUC may be dealt with. However, EUC is so large in most organizations that Data Governance must start to ensure that data management is done appropriately in it. Additionally, regulators are becoming increasingly interested in ECU, which is an additional impetus to address it. This webinar focuses on the major challenges that exist in EUC and how Data Governance can address them. Fundamental questions, such a simply understanding what is a “production” EUC application are discussed. The data life cycle in the context of EUC, particularly data capture and interaction with corporate systems is examined, as is the need for quality of all kinds in EUC, including data quality.
Attendees will learn:
•What End User Computing (EUC) is and why Data Governance urgently needs to address it
•Why EUC environments often cannot be replaced by corporate systems from IT
•Problems that can arise from ungoverned EUC environments
•Basic strategies for governing EUC environments
•Tools and techniques for EUC governance

Modern marketing organizational structure @kaykas - jascha kaykas-wolffJascha Kaykas-Wolff
Organizational design and restructuring is not new. But, with the requirement to create data-driven marketing organizations and support marketers who show bottom line results more emphasis is being placed on marketing leaders to structure their teams and business in a way that is agile and impactful.
Reflecting on this, and doing some additional research of my own, I was struck by the lack of published material describing how one might go about building a marketing organization that addresses business challenges happening right now and most importantly that can drive results right now.
Over the past several years as I’ve been fortunate to lead marketing organizations for enterprise and mid-market businesses. During this time I’ve developed an organizational playbook that can scale to virtually any size of business, is highly adaptable, and has a proven track record for success.
Enclosed is the core framework for what I believe is an ideal composition for the modern marketing organization. I’m looking forward to your feedback. - Jascha

Disrupted - Executive Perspectives on Banking & InsuranceAlastair Davies
Management Events' Surveys team interviewed more than 600 decision makers from leading Banks and Insurers in Europe and Southeast Asia to find their key business needs, development projects and solution investments.
Executives would like to see IT take the lead in improving organisational agility, but to do so requires the ability to manage change in the face of complexity.
We’ve worked with Executives and IT leaders for over 30 years, and the single most common complaint we hear from them is their profound frustration with the lack of results and transparency from their never-ending IT investments.
To add further complexity, the demand for digital products and services has made it increasingly difficult for organizations to make ongoing investments and balance the need for innovation with optimization.
The latest data, combined from global enterprises, big consulting and research firms, makes the case that companies need to urgently act to address the digital disruption of their business and their related skills gaps. The data shows that 70% of digital business initiatives are likely to fail to deliver business growth, due to lack of business process and product innovation, as well as poor organizational adaptability.
Poor governance and legacy product management processes to align business and IT initiatives, coupled with insufficient leadership engagement across the organization, are the main reason most companies are wasting money on IT.
This thought paper speaks to these challenges and how optimizing both technology innovation and cross-organizational engagement will accelerate the positive business outcomes that organizations are looking to achieve especially in lieu of increasing digital disruption.

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.

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.
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.

5. MODERN IT
ORGANIZATION
Modern IT organization needs to be agile – able to react and bend
in rapidly changing situations. Simultaneously, it needs to be able
to ensure efficient core processess in the organization and have
the flexibility of a start-up to maintain the readiness to prepare and
react fast to external change.
Having the right people with the right competence at the right
moment in any organizational function is critical. However, the
most crucial capability in IT today is the understanding of business.
Modern IT function is integrated into business, being the internal
provider who prospects the opportunities next to the business
management.
Modern IT organization needs the ability to drive change as well as
understanding of emerging technologies to best support business
in all levels and push and guide the company development.
The function also needs to hold the ability to balance digital
opportunities with the risks related to them and deliver services in a
new way.

Courage and Experimentation
”

CIO, Food & Beverage
CIO, Food & Beverage
Senior Vice President, Financial Services
Insights from Customers
”
IT function must work together with internal key partners to establish a culture
embracing flexibility and experimentations. You need to invest in areas that you don’t
know and tolerate that sometimes you guess incorrectly.
If you understand what your customers want, you can create more value by providing
services that are equal or better than the services you have today. You have to take
your offering beyond what the customers want and expect you to deliver.
Ability to React
”The digital transformation is rapid and unpredictable. In this kind of
environment, ability to respond is an essential skill.
Ecosystems and Partnerships
”If you have an adequate understanding of the business, you can
understand what the digital transformation can offer. However, you cannot
do everything by yourself. You must play with the partners, suppliers,
and startups.
Capability to Lead
”First, you have to be clear about goals you have within IT, then you define
the roles and required competences. Everyone in the IT organization must
act as part of a group, not as individuals. At the end of the day, it’s all about
leadership.

The IT department cannot drive change alone. We are trying to push out the technology where
it belongs in the business and have the board to involve the business in the things we develop.
When we run a project, the IT department is not the project leader but a facilitator - the
implementation is run by the business.

9. As digitalization has formed a new playground for
businesses to compete in, the capability to collect,
integrate and analyse data is now considered as the
number one investment priority among IT decision
makers. Data is now a business-critical asset which may
determine your ability to not just know your customers
thoroughly but to serve them in a personal and timely
manner without compromizing in security and privacy. At
the end, the forerunners are the companies who are able
to monetize their data.
Today the customer is increasingly the focus of the IT
organization. While in the past the customer has been in
the hands of marketing and sales, limiting the customers’
experiences mainly on the service encounters, IT is now
moving into the driving seat in creating experiences
across different channels in the digital environment.

13. CLOUD
TRANSITION
CIOs’ spending on cloud-based solutions and application
outsourcing is growing. Cloud brings easiness and increases
agility of the IT organization and, thus, better supports the entire
business.
Cloud-based service models offer a chance for IT to quickly
make moves without the need of slow in-house development
and software maintenance. This is the option for a modern IT
organization who pursues to keep the organization competitive
and flexible for future needs in the rapidly changing business
environment.
Cloud-based service models also attract organizations by their
flexible pay-as-you-go-based cost structure without a demand for
big investments. As the administration and support for the service
is on the responsibility of the service provider, cloud-based
services are also easy and fast to deploy.

16. ”
There is a huge amount of data generated by people, cars, devices, business processes,
buildings and everything imaginable. Any business with an ambition to prosper in the future
and be competitive needs to understand this: invest in analytics and value the information.

BIG SMART DATA

17. THE VALUE
OF DATA
Data and analytics offer lucrative opportunities for business
transformation. Analytics is no longer used to just explain the
past; it is now applied to the present and to predict the future.
This explains analytics being high on the list of investment
priorities of forward-thinking companies, and analytics projects
generally having the support of the C-suite.
The amount of data is growing exponentially. CIOs are concerned
about being simultaneously data rich and information poor.
The quality of data has already been recognized as one of the
development priorities by IT management.
Data is an asset and it needs to be embraced for its worth. Many
companies miss the actual purpose of data - the business benefit
of it. In the same way raw materials are turned into finished
products, there should be a constructed data value chain through
which data is managed from its initial capture to monetization. For
the organizations that are after comprehensive data utilization,
investments are focused, for example, on dashboards, self-service
analytics, data visualization, and mobile analytics.

18. ANALYTICS
THROUGHOUT THE ORGANIZATION
Analytics is increasingly applied in different business functions
for varying purposes. It is a strategic development initiative that
offers an opportunity to enhance overall company performance
through fact-based, faster decision making and increased process
efficiency. The success of analytics projects is not guaranteed.
It may be due to lack of support for CIOs from business
management or incapability to evaluate the data representation
and its credibility for decision-making.
As analytics involves different business functions, cross-
organizational project management brings its own challenge. For
analytics projects to succeed, the entire business management
must be engaged to ensure the needed support for change.
”Analytics today should go across the entire enterprise and
not just be focused on separate departments or divisional
reporting.

THE DATA GENERATOR
Internet of Things is enabling data flow on an unseen scale.
IoT will increase its position in development priorities as new
opportunities for innovative business models and services,
and revenue streams are recognized. Current IoT projects are
mostly led and executed by the IT department. However, IT
departments cannot drive the change to IoT deployment alone,
close cooperation with the business is a must. IoT technology
is embedded in the physical assets across the business and the
whole organization needs to be involved in order to succeed.

23. fighting disruption
with digital
To survive in the long-term, every business needs to
become a digital business. Digital business requires
seamless cooperation between IT and business to explore
the possibilities digitalization enables. Agility and bimodal
operational model, being the mantra in today’s IT, are
essential in business modernization and maintaining
competitiveness.
Being fast and having the capacity to flexibly utilize different
technologies in changing environments is crucial but
companies need to be proactive, not just reactive. The
competition is not only about responding to disruptions
there may and will occur, it is about finding the best ways
to leverage digital and especially about who is able to
do it first, do it best, and to constantly develop it better.
Being fast and flexible and having the needed capabilities
in use at the right time entails cooperation outside your
own organization with external service providers. It further
develops the role of modern IT organization from being
an internal service provider for the business to being an
intermediary whose focus is in the business outcome rather
than in the in-house development.

25. BEFRIENDING
THE CUSTOMER
Customer-driven IT is a reality according to the highest IT decision
makers. 61% of them state that improving customer and end user
experience is a current IT priority (59% in 2015). To outreach the
role of an internal process executor to the strategic business
partner, IT needs to apply an operating model that best supports
the IT operations, serves the business, and values the end user.
Thus, design thinking is increasingly important for a modern IT
organization.
Legacy modernization and ERP stay on the CIO agenda. Almost
half of the researched decision makers cite having legacy
modernization projects in their near future priorities. As in
any current technology projects, fast time to market and user-
driven approach are essential. Brave architectural decisions are
required as CIOs are rethinking their approach to complex system
developments. Leveraging hybrid IT environment is the solution
for many IT organizations.

CRITICAL ASSETS
You have to recognize all
possible consequences of a
successful cyber attack. Make
a list of priorities. Identify the
critical assets that you have
to protect your company in all
scenarios, and also those things
that are not going to be terminal
for your business. Develop a
cyber resilience plan around
these priorities.
AUDIT YOUR EXISTING
CAPABILITIES
Take a critical view on your
existing protection plan,
procedures, policies, and your
existing tools and capabilities in
your organization. Are they up-

company under threat?
ADAPT YOUR
STRATEGY
Make sure that your people are
fully trained and aware of the
risks. What can be dangerous?
What are the things we need to
deal with? If you want to be a

FIVE SKILLS
that make a great CISO
CISO, Telecom
WILLINGNESS AND ABILITY FOR CONSTANT LEARNING. You need
to be able to keep up with the development and be willing to learn from
everyone and everywhere.
HUMILITY. You need to be humble to have healthy respect for your
opponents whoever they may be, hackers hacking for fun or criminals
hacking for profit.
IMAGINATION. You need to be able to think beyond the immediate
possibilities in order to look for new, creative solutions.
COMMUNICATION SKILLS. You need to be very approachable and be
a good communicator to clearly communicate the risks and also to help
prioritize the countermeasures.
HEALTHY IMPATIENCE. The advantage of the opportunity is always
stealth, speed and accuracy. Attackers are very quick, but the response
tends to be slower. You don ́t know everything immediately and you can´́t
block it right away. You need impatience to get things running and keep
momentum going.
