Guest Speaker
Future of Technology - How emerging technology and Industry 5.0 will allow us to be more human.
AI is the only way we, as humans, are going to be able to cope with an increasingly digitised world - by doing the boring, repetitive tasks so that there will be more time for us to smell the roses.
Get up to speed with this latest technology and also the ethical and economic issues and opportunities it brings. What are you able to apply at work and home that can make immediate and positive changes in your life?  It is up to us to create the “5th Industrial Revolution”; Industry 5.0 where humans are the reason.
Catherine will delve into the importance of applying “cybernetics” frameworks and feedback mechanisms to AI-generated outcomes and to test and challenge the algorithms to ensure humans and the environment are at the forefront of technological innovation and that new digital systems are safe, sustainable and responsible in a complex, changing world.

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.
