2:20 PM PANEL DISCUSSION: Examining the Cloud as a Divergent Digital Landscape Instigating New Security Risks for Data

Government departments and agencies are trending towards aggregation critical systems. Unlike on premise data storage, the cloud produces a superior capacity, greater savings, convenience and increased data access flexibility. However, cloud services have created a systematic economic risk which requires reliance on vendors as a second party supply chain; reducing data control. Subsequently, a new environment requires new methods of defence.

  • Exploring vendor inspection frameworks to ensure a trustworthy and secure cloud solution.
  • Defining cyber security risk management and insurance as cloud service providers are not accountable for breaches.
  • Exploring cloud innovation and encouraging staff to have a positive attitude and active training participation towards the cloud.
