2012 Focus
FutureGov Forum Hong Kong features three separate streams focusing on the biggest challenges facing government:
- BIG DATA – Nobody manages more data than government – and this track focuses on strategies to improve the collection, storage, distribution and analysis of ever-increasing data volumes.
- INFORMATION SECURITY – Successful e-government depends on citizen trust in online services and secure information handling. How do successful government departments manage evolving internal and external information security risks?
- GOVERNMENT CLOUD – Cloud computing creates tremendous new opportunities in improved performance for government agencies and citizen services. At the same time, it presents new security, privacy and reliability challenges, which raises questions about functional responsibility and legal accountability.
