So you’ve got a plan to make/save/both the company money, and you think it would be a perfect fit for some cloud infra or software service. But the IT Security Team won't let you extend the corp network or upload data without every cyber security product they saw at IP EXPO! Your cloud project is sunk before it’s begun. Now what? Alex Magnay will help you find some common ground and common language to negotiate with the IT Security Team. Alex will walk through a risk-based approach to developing and deploying your cloud service while implementing the right amount of security controls to stay safe.
