RES 2 Ivanti Workspace Manager. In the past year the landscape has changed rapidly around workspace management solutions. Ivanti already owned AppSense and back in 2017 RES was joining the party. Since then a lot or rumours where spread but at the end it is clear that RES Workspace Manager, -or Ivanti Workspace Control if you will-, will not be continued in development and Ivanti Workspace Manager(AppSense) on the other hand will be continued in development. What are my options, how can I convert from one to another. This session gives a overview of what options you have as an organisation and how we can help with the RES conversion tool towards the latest Ivanti User Workspace Manager.

LUNCH, Munch and learn
Go and make this IT more secure. Do you still remember widely publicized security issues that were found at the beginning of this year in many CPUs? All were hurrying to deploy patches. This time patches were not only for Operating system and applications, but also firmware upgrade was needed. Whole IT security scene was in alert and dreading the moment, when malware using this exploit would be discovered. But what is actually job of a IT security professional? Do we only push administrators to patch servers? Fill in enormous spreadsheets reports, that bring no value? Always publishing new regulations, that change procedures to useless state? Always being smart ass and never guilty, when security issue if detected? NO. There are far more interesting tasks that are to be done, and tasks that are far more useful. Join me on a journey through the most interesting tasks, stories and mishaps of a IT security engineer inside of a enterprise environment. I will not hack you, but there are more than few, who might.
