How often do you hear the response, ‘yeah good, busy’, when asking your colleagues how they are? Unfortunately, busy doesn’t always mean productive!
And it’s not just about our individual work, but how we work together as a team.
In an age of information overwhelm and constant distractions, where productivity and collaboration can seem at odds with each other, we’re here to show you how shifting your mindset and streamlining your processes can improve both.
If an auditor knocked on your door tomorrow, could you present all the information for the current project or client you're working on? For majority of businesses, that answer is no. And it opens you up to considerable levels of risk.
In this session, Document Control Specialist, Lauren Graden, examines how organisations can benefit from having one single and complete view over all your business data and information, and the downfalls of failing to do so.
Pioneering businesses must allow their leaders to introduce and embed innovations that will deliver better quality business outcomes.
But, this also comes with a great deal of risk, especially when it comes to security and privacy.
We delve into why all regulated businesses need to think about enterprise-grade security,
privileged access management, and secure processes for managing information.
We will highlight the importance of enterprise security risk assessments and the role of insider threat management in today's business environment.
As organisations increasingly rely on technology to work and collaborate, the potential for security breaches
and data loss becomes a major concern.
You’ve heard from the experts and we’re sure you have plenty of ideas for quick wins. But how are you going to secure and scale for the long-term and be future-ready?
Collaboration is the foundation for great business, and Ideagen is here to help you bring it all together. In this session, we explore how we help businesses share files externally without breaching firewalls, automate the filing of information, and work securely on sensitive documents – making sure your collaborative efforts yield tangible results.
