Asset management can seem like a daunting proposition—devices and applications are increasing exponentially, creating more attack surfaces, while cyber-threats and governance policies are also simultaneously expanding. It's a bar fight in the making. But the Big Three—asset, governance, and security—can complement and support each other. In this session, we'll discuss strategies for tackling asset management in the context of governance and cyber-security. Working in teams, we'll brainstorm strategies for initiating and maintaining an asset management program that's flexible enough to grow and change as your organization does.
