Implementing a Digital Twin of an Organization (DTO) for Manufacturing – May 12-15

Virtual Event Virtual Event

This four-day workshop (delivered virtually over four half-day sessions) helps manufacturers define the critical success factors for designing, implementing, and utilizing a DTO. Using real-world manufacturing examples and an interactive manufacturing case study, participants learn “ready to apply” tips and techniques to model and optimize production processes, supporting operations, product costing, and overall profitability. Key Learning Objectives Learn how to initiate, align, and sustain manufacturing process analysis and modeling to optimize asset and/or labour capacities and utilizations, improve operational planning, and enrich costing and operational budgeting in a manufacturing setting Understand the role of DTO modeling technology using an illustrative Canadian DTO software, Collaborative Business Planning (CBP), for process and cost flow visualization and “what-if” scenario-planning analysis Appreciate the value of analyzing current state and simulating future state manufacturing operations in a collaborative environment to improve profitability and long-term viability of the business Who Should Attend and Why? This workshop provides foundational training for leveraging operational and financial data to develop highly-visual interactive DTO models for any manufacturer. Although any functional role will benefit, positions typically related to DTO implementations include: Production managers focused on resource capacity requirements while decreasing lead times, increasing throughputs, and realizing cost reduction targets Continuous Improvement […]

Hackers Don’t Hack In – They Log In: Understanding, Transforming & Securing Your Identity Security Posture

As you expand your business, especially more into the cloud, the number of identities you have expands with it. Understanding all the identity security and privilege challenges this creates can be difficult. In this session we’ll take a look at privileges and the ‘Paths to Privilege’ threat actors seek out and often exploit. We’ll look at ways to identify the gaps, detect and close these paths with remediation planning, and how to gain a more holistic view of Identity Security across teams, domains, applications, and more. 3 Key Takeaways: Which privileges threat actors seek out and exploit What are paths to privilege? Identify the gaps, detect and close these paths with remediation planning, and gain a more holistic view of Identity Security Meet Your Presenter:  Jason Silva is a Principal Solutions Architect focused in Privilege Access Management (PAM), Identity and Access Management (IAM), Just-In-Time Provisioning (JIT), and Least Privilege. Jason brings over 25 years of experience in solutions management to BeyondTrust's Privileged Access Management Solutions enforcing Privileged Password Management and Privileged Session Management, Privileged Endpoint Management, and Secure Remote Access which utilizes a single pane of glass for all management aspects including Automated Account Discovery, Privileged Management and Elevation, Audit […]
