Organizations have struggled with vulnerability management for years.

There are too many vulnerabilities to fix and not enough time to deploy the necessary patches.

But a vulnerability is only as bad as the threat exploiting it and the impact to the organization.

In this security and risk webinar, Augusto Barros, (LinkedIn profile, Gartner bio) VP Analyst, will help you evolve your prioritization of vulnerabilities from simple severity scores to a risk-based approach that correlates asset value, the severity of vulnerabilities and threat actor activity.

Discussion Topics:

• How to prioritize vulnerabilities for better risk reduction
• How to reduce the amount of work pushed to IT operations due to identified vulnerabilities
• The most useful factors to consider for vulnerability prioritization

Good projects intentionally gone bad is a reality in every business. Every management project has opponents who try to manipulate it for their own gain, and they are frequently successful.

This is often denied or hidden and PMOs need to learn how to deal with this.

In 2017, only 29% of software development projects were considered to be successful, meaning that these projects delivered on time, on budget, with a satisfactory result. 52% of the projects were listed with the qualification “challenged” and 19% failed completely (Standish Group Chaos Report 2017). With approximately $665 billion spent worldwide on IT projects alone, this means that $126 billion goes down the drain each year due to project failure.

People adjust the truth to suit themselves and thus serve their own interests: more power, more income, more respect. Based on one’s own interest, matters are portrayed in a better light and budgets are intentionally drawn up incorrectly.

All of this is done with the express aim of influencing decision-making.

Yet little attention has been paid to the art of undermining and manipulating projects. With more knowledge of the motivation and methods of project saboteurs, it could be combatted by the PMO. Which can in turn lead to large savings and better project results.

In this webinar Dion Kotteman provides an insight on the project saboteur and explores the tools necessary to manipulate a project successfully and professionally and how to counter all this.

Presenter: Dion Kotteman (LinkedIn profile) author of The Project Saboteur… And How To Kill Him, runs his own company, specialised in C -level and IT advice, and lectures at two universities. Dion was the Dutch central government’s CIO, held senior directors positions at several banks and is now a non-executive member of the board of an insurance company. He advises many companies and organisations like Deloitte, Dutch Railroads, City of Amsterdam, CGI and the Dutch Royal Airforce. He holds masters from the Wharton School of management (US) and Nyenrode University (NL).

Although the project failure rate has seen improvement over the last decade or so, roughly half continue to fail.  As such, project risk management [which is designed to address risks that contribute to project failure] has gained significant interest over the same period.

While perhaps one of the more challenging knowledge areas of the PMBOK®, project risk management is a key competency for professional project managers.

This webinar will build on the learning concepts covered in the 03/14/19 webinar entitled ‘Predictive, Iterative and Adaptive Life Cycle Approaches: Managing Projects in the Knowledge Environment’ and will  contrast project risk management across today’s two primary project life cycle approaches – Predictive (Traditional) and Adaptive (Agile) Project Life Cycles.

Presenter: Barry M. Milteer, (LinkedIn profile) MBA, PMP, MCTS  is well-versed in many areas of Business and IT.  Having over 10 years’ experience in Project, Program and Portfolio integration, scope, schedule, cost and risk management. Barry also has significant additional multi- platform Enterprise Project Management (EPM) and Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) experience including Business Case Development, Requirements Management, Solution Selection, Proof of Concept (POC), Installation/Setup, Configuration, Deployment and Training.
