Loved the keynote delivered by @HamishWTaylor at @CIOsynergy in LA today. Truly inspirational stuff.

Interesting quote from the CIOSynergy event today (~ 150 IT leaders from DFW companies). “Good leaders are both confident and vulnerable.” It speaks to staying focused while stepping into the unknown, especially in the face of change.

CIODALLAS SPONSORS ARE ON THE EDGE OF ENTERPRISE INNOVATION
Every year at CXOsync we explore directions from within the Office of the CIO; what are these strategists planning and what paths are they taking? Through these discussions we're able to understand their paths and identify industry trends. By pairing our audience with a selection of industry innovators on edge of product and solution development for the enterprise we're able to incubate true thought-leaders with actionable technology. From leading blue-chips like IBM, Microsoft and CISCO to newly funded start-ups this is where we gather the latest and greatest.

Refreshment Break
Making Sense of Defense And Avoiding Security Fatigue by mimecast
Attackers are, and always will be, more focused and more capable than users. Beyond prevention, we need to be able to detect quickly and respond efficiently, but is that enough to keep risk exposure under control? As Security professionals, we want to prevent attacks but how do we avoid security fatigue, while mitigating the risk exposure of our organizations?
