Better use of data is key to more effective government. Across government, teams are doing fascinating work with data. But those projects don’t get the attention they deserve.
At this month's event, the 29th in our series, the speakers presented their work in an exciting, quickfire format. Each speaker had eight minutes, followed by eight minutes of questions from the audience.
Our partner, Ploughshare, the Ministry of Defence’s Technology Transfer Office, helped bring together speakers from cyber and defence around the theme, 'Mission Possible – Getting the right data, to the right people with the right permissions to inform and act.'
This month's speakers were:
- Mark Darbin, Principal Scientist at the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory on a Ministry of Defence approach to sharing the right data at the right time through Information Based Security Architecture (IBSA)
- Andrew Garner, Lead Security Architect at UK MOD Strategic Command Cap C4ISTAR on communicating and sharing information securely with partners within Mission Partner Environments (MPEs) using data-centric security aligned to Zero Trust Architecture principles
- Wendy Griffiths, Product Manager at Tarian Technology on how to eradicate the cyber threat using data centric security.
- Andrew Read, Systems Engineer at the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory, a case study on sharing intelligence data within NATO
The event was chaired by Gavin Freeguard, Associate at the Institute for Government.
This event was kindly supported by Ploughshare.
