Description:
Everyone looks to IT to be the superhero -- to fly in, cape blowing in the wind, and save the day by improving productivity, lowering the budget, and making life easier for customers and employees. Unfortunately, with over half the nation's projects running behind schedule and over budget, the IT leader can go from hero to zero faster than a speeding bullet. IT often gets the blame, but rarely is technology the culprit that throws our projects into turmoil. It's not our fault, but it is our problem. This session explores why IT leaders need to become change agents and how to attack the real problems facing government today, even if that includes never writing a line of code.

Description:
The old saying "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" has never been more true.
In today's public sector enterprise, all staff, including IT and Business Managers must become security obligated employees. What does it mean to be security obligated? It means you have a responsibility to actively participate in ensuring your organization's critical business assets, and sensitive data are being protected, and you are compliant with the ever-increasing number of regulations your organization is governed by. The potential consequences of not doing are frightening.

Description:
In a fast-changing world, everyone is an explorer whether they know it or not, particularly in government IT. We are constantly traveling across uncharted terrain: the economy, social media, the cloud, and on and on. Was Steve Jobs any less of an explorer than Ferdinand Magellan? They definitely had one thing in common: they always looked forward and rarely looked backward. The spirit of exploration and adventure lives on, now more than ever because technology makes it possible for anyone to be an explorer in their own right. In this fascinating and rousing session, noted explorer Josh Bernstein shows us how to turn one's career into an adventure and the survival skills needed along the way.

Description:
It is no surprise that fraud and abuse are growing in today's struggling economy, something that government organizations can ill afford. Equally expensive to government - if not more so - is "waste" resulting in improper or unnecessary payments and expenditures. This session focuses on how to intelligently utilize data to detect, analyze and prevent intentional (and unintentional) abuse of government programs and resources.

This session discusses approaches and strategies that deliver the broadest impact with the least distress and will include ways to secure mobile devices while providing access to the appropriate information that users within your environment need and desire.

Description:
Rising alongside the relatively new technology of Big Data, is the new job title data scientist. A data scientist represents an evolution from the business or data analyst role. What sets the data scientist apart is strong business acumen, coupled with the ability to communicate findings to both business and IT leaders in a way that can influence how an organization approaches a business challenge. The data scientist role has been described as "part analyst, part artist", someone who is inquisitive, who can stare at data and spot trends. This session will explore this expanding role.
