ACENET and the Power of Scientific Visualization

Online

We all know the advantages of a bar chart instead of a table full of numbers. The bigger your dataset, the greater the value of seeing it visually and being able to pinpoint both broad and specific critical areas for decisions. Scientific visualization of large datasets can be applied across a number of areas, including engineering, material science, sensor/drone data, geospatial, and life sciences. Join them at this session to learn about powering up innovation with supercomputing, and using scientific visualization to make better decisions. There are no prerequisites and no technical knowledge is needed. This session is aimed at mid to senior level managers with R&D technology responsibilities, and R&D engineering or scientific staff with no scientific visualization experience. The webinar is a precursor to the Interactive Data Analysis & Visualization with Paraview workshop below.

Crouching Admin, Hidden Hacker: Privileged Access & the Unnoticed Masters | Part 2

Online

Crouching Admin, Hidden Hacker: Privileged Access & the Unnoticed Masters Part 2 Are there cyberattacks that are effective, reliable, and almost always work? Of course! Even when an organization’s infrastructure is well managed, patches are regularly installed, and the network is monitored – there are hackers that still find their way quietly in; be it via a misconfiguration, social engineering, or long-forgotten privileged account. There is always a hidden hacker waiting to strike! In this webinar with hacker, pen tester, Enterprise Security MVP and cybersecurity expert, Paula Januszkiewicz, learn: What are the biggest mistakes people make in multi-cloud and infrastructure security? Can moving to the Cloud help diminish the risk of a cyber breach? And how can you measure its effectiveness? How do hackers exploit misconfigurations to gain privileged access to accounts? How to protect against ransomware, malware, APTs, and even malicious insiders with a Zero Trust approach to security. Leave this webinar with world-class tips on how to attain the next level of security in your workplace…no crouching admin necessary.

A More Sustainable Future: Achieving Net Zero Together

Online

Climate change is the single greatest challenge of our time. With Canada’s climate warming twice as fast as the global average, catastrophic events such as heat waves, wildfires and floods are costing billions and putting communities and people at risk. The steps needed to reduce climate risk require transition and adaptation plans which are already well underway. To avert the worst impacts of climate change, the Government of Canada has set an ambitious climate target of 40-45% emissions reductions by 2030 and is committed to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050. Public sector organizations in Canada and around the world are responding to sustainability challenges with digital and data solutions, AI, hybrid cloud, and ecosystem partnerships. But it’s not just about the data or the technology. It’s about being a catalyst for change, making the world better one community at a time. Join them as their sponsor IBM together with senior stakeholders from the federal government discuss what it will take to achieve net zero and how together we can make that happen (e.g. sustainable procurement; Canada’s Net Zero Challenge).

Interactive Data Analysis & Scientific Visualization with Paraview

Online

Scientific visualization of large datasets allows you to identify critical areas and vulnerabilities during the design process so that you can focus efforts, cut design time and create a better product. This workshop will introduce participants to scientific visualization on both a conceptual and practical level. Following an overview, the session will focus on teaching participants how to use the open-source Paraview visualization software on their own desktop. This will be followed by a demonstration on how open source Paraview can be used on a supercomputer for datasets that are too large for desktop or workstations. This is a beginner, hands-on workshop for R&D engineering or scientific staff with no scientific visualization experience.

Bridging a Dangerous Gap Between Incidents and Cyber Crises

Online

The number of cyberattacks and breaches rises every year. The complexity and sophistication of attacks is also rising, and businesses have to reckon with extortion, regulatory reporting, and legal implications of each breach. Unfortunately, very few are prepared to deal with major attacks and breaches can produce catastrophic consequences. But there is a way to better mitigate risks: extending your technical incident response program to cover executive teams and their plans for leading through cyber crises. Join this session to learn: Cyber crisis that developed into catastrophes What went wrong? How could it have been handled differently? What preparatory steps would enable teams to take control? Core elements of a cyber crisis plan The difference from technical incident response plan Understanding the critical role executive level plans have How to reduce adverse effect How to save money How to have a limiting impact to internal teams
