CCAT Presents Sun Microsystems Michelle Dennedy

In today's online global economy, it is more critical than ever to protect sensitive enterprise data from internal and external security threats. Accomplishing this in addition to meeting the demands of regulatory compliance and auditing can present an enormous challenge. Our exclusive dinner with Ms. Dennedy will demonstrate ways in which organizations can reduce risk and provide centralized control for secure operations. Those in attendance will come away with an understanding of the business impact of unifying Chief Information Officers (CIOs) with a common model. Over the course of the evening, a strategy will be outlined that streamlines and simplifies the process of managing user identities companywide and allows provisioning, secure access and ongoing compliance.

Many of Calgary's most visible entrepreneurs will be in attendance, and we encourage members of the press to join Sun Microsystems, CMA and CCAT at this exclusive event.
