IT security needs to be more progressive.
How many times have we seen companies suffer huge losses for the simple reason of security lapse! Traditionally security is perceived as an expenditure that erodes our bottom lines and budgets. Such an approach towards security needs to be reinvented to keep pace with the dynamic changes in our IT security landscape. To answer such various security threats, a 3 day conference began yesterday in Singapore that would conclude tomorrow.
The annual event called Governmentware 2008, is presented by The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA), Singapore. This year’s theme, “Positive Security: Empowering Business Models of the Future”, highlights the need for all players in the infocomm ecosystem to adopt a more forward-looking paradigm in confronting IT security issues. The conference will be filled with action-packed demos with an attempt to encourage participants to embrace IT security as an opportunity to solve critical problems.
The conference program aims to highlight on the following points:
- Security Issues related to Electronic Identities
- Personal Digital Protection in the New Cyber Universe
- Latest Cryptography and Biometrics
- Critical Infocomm Infrastructure Protection
