The 2004 conference programme includes topics specific to e-commerce, open source security, CobiT, managing corporate information, data privacy and auditing spreadsheets.
Enterprises are facing a wide range of challenging issues in both IT security and governance and this event will enable delegates to gain a better understanding of these and other issues that are on the agenda.
CobiT and its use in IT governance will receive considerable attention from different perspectives. Other popular process models such as ITIL will be discussed by experienced practitioners and the mapping of CobiT to SAP process will be discussed by Boonen, co-author of the recent publication "A Pocket Guide to IT Governance".
Wildhaber will present a number of information security papers, including "The Certificate Policy and Certificate Practice Statement" which forms the foundation of any serious e-commerce initiative. Wildhaber was at the forefront of the development of PKI infrastructure in Europe and has been an adviser to the Swiss and Liechtenstein governments in this area.
