Unveil the Hidden Threat: Over-Retention's Role in Data Privacy
Focus: Cybersecurity, Fusion 

As data proliferates rapidly, fueled by technological advancements like AI and ML, effective data management is crucial for privacy and security. While we prioritise classification, monitoring, and protection, the overlooked danger lies in over-retention. In this session, we'll delve into the dangers of over-retention. Holding onto unaccounted-for data not only increases the risk of accidental or malicious exposure but also escalates ongoing operational and environmental costs associated with managing Redundant, Obsolete, or Trivial (ROT) data. Learn how OpenText technology can discover all your data assets, catalogue or classify them based on risk, business value and sensitivity and bring that data into proper retention and disposal management.

Customer Experience Spotlight - Journey towards comprehensive data security
Hear from Bill Rue, Head of Technology and Data Risk at Cbus on the organisation’s journey from focusing primarily on application security to advancing towards a comprehensive data security initiative.
