• The impact of
consumer based
technologies is a
reflection of the
aspirations of a
generation, the need
for participation, the
desire to contribute
and the sense of
being part of a
community.

ICT Policies, ie. “appropriate use”
• An organisation that has not clearly confirmed
that its employees are aware of its security
policies, and are willing and able to follow them,
has not created a security-aware culture
• Create and regularly update your security-
related policy documents as the environment is
constantly changing; eg social networks

Impact of the Social Networks
• Requirement for strategies for moving to an
open environment that will uphold all privacy,
legal, regulatory and security issues.
• Social networks are becoming well-established
communication tools for students, staff and
alumni
• Consequences of a world where the institution is
less involved in the infrastructure for delivery of
education. ie, Infrastructure as a Service; the 4th
Utility.

Data Security
• Poor data management increases cost
• Data management practices affect agility
• Increased risks in relation to maintaining secure
storage and protection of sensitive data off-site.
• International jurisdictions/sovereignty for off-
shore data storage
• Quality of service requirements for customers
through service level agreements.

Information Management
• Governance, Risk Management and Compliance
Are Inseparable:
– Governance — the process by which policies are set
and decision making is executed.
– Risk Management — the process for ensuring that
important business processes and behaviours remain
within appropriate.
– Compliance — the process of adherence to policies.
Policies can be derived from internal directives,
procedures and requirements, or external laws,
regulations, Service Agreements.

Statutory considerations
• The Patriot Act and related legislative tools are
designed to assist law enforcement and justice
authorities in carrying out their official duties in
the investigation and prosecution of criminal
activity (and their powers and authority in that
regard closely resemble that of police and
prosecutors in developed countries around the
world, including in Australia).

Conclusion
• Map cloud architecture to enterprise architecture
as part of an IT roadmap
• Create a cloud task force or steering committee
as part of current architecture boards to evaluate
cloud adoption
• Develop a asset v utility/agility business case
• Evaluate technical and organization alignment
• Perform information inventory to assess which
data assets can be hosted in external clouds
