Over the past decades, the changes we have gone through as IT function have driven us to be effective in managing complicated business problems through the application of technology. Nowadays, the environment that the companies we work for is constantly increasingly in complexity. This makes the current IT transformation different from the changes we have gone through over the past decades.
Complicated business processes require a structured and predictable breakdown of activities; Complex business opportunities require an agile transformation. This calls for a different look at People, Processes, Data and Technology.

IT security professionals all face one major issue: being asked to do more, with less resources. Automation and integration are a necessity in order to meet the demands of an organization's security needs. Managing risk without diminishing the speed and quality of development is achievable by integrating security into agile processes, like DevOps or CI/CD. Since most security teams are understaffed, automated solutions are becoming a requirement, rather than an option to properly manage the ever-increasing workload.

A Fireside Chat featuring David Versteeg, Chief Digital Officer, Van Lanschot Kempen and Bas Rapati, Chief Analytics Officer, Van Lanschot Kempen
Moderated by Lisanne Smink, Product Owner, Van Lanschot Kempen
As an organisation setting sail in search of new digital terrain, one of the simplest questions you can ask yourself, looking at "where do we stand today", is, "where do we want to go?"
What then isn't the simplest, is charting a map of exactly how you get from here to there. The elements to moving through a digital transformation journey range from tangible items, such as being business focused and client centric, to more intangible areas, such as what it truly means to transform your workforce. Let's also delve into overcoming common hurdles such as initial reluctancy of users, how to use KPIs for the whole transformation, and how to gain C-Suite buy-in.
Join this session to hear from Van Lanschot Kempen's leadership team on how they transformed a traditional bank in an old-fashioned industry, to an advanced and revamped wealth management firm.

The adoption of open-source software continues to grow and creates significant security concerns for everything from software supply chain attacks in language ecosystem registries to cloud-native application security concerns. In this session, we will explore how developers are targeted as a vehicle for malware distribution, how immensely we depend on open-source maintainers to release timely security fixes, and how the race to the cloud creates new security concerns for developers to cope with, as computing resources turn into infrastructure as code.

We know how to do good security. Best practices are not new. We have new technologies, like Machine Learning, AI, etc. And there are so many good security leaders out there â?" smart people who are energetic and passionate. And yet, security programs don't always work. How is that possible?
In today's world, we see one threat after another emerging, and for every threat, a new solution arises. Yet no matter how many solutions you implement, without a good foundation, it's still a recipe for disaster.
Let's close the gap between know how and effectiveness by tackling practical tips to improve security.

Businesses are accelerating their adoption of the cloud, but each journey is unique. A business may already have a private cloud solution, but now needs public cloud for scale. Business that are using public cloud could require the security capabilities of private clouds for critical applications. There are many options available to meet business goals and each one has their benefit. This session with Rackspace Technology and Wyndham Hotels will explore how organisations can overcome challenges when embarking on a digital transformation journey and evolve their legacy infrastructure solutions with cloud strategies suited to their businesses.

Year after year, security teams struggle to defend against the same threats that continuously grow more complex. Additionally, digital transformation has expanded the attack surface, further complicating the process of identifying, mitigating, and reporting on risk. The stakes are high for security teams every day, but when there are newsworthy threats, the board knocks on their door. For executives, it will become increasingly important to understand the evolving threat landscape, the impact this has on their organization, and how to answer questions from the board quickly, or even better, proactively before they ask.
