Abstract:
Cloud services are a hot topic and responsible for a significant amount of global R&D investment. Figures from Gartner (March 09) estimate that the market is currently worth $56bn and will rise to $150bn by 2013.
In this talk Sadie explored the drivers shaping this future, what capability maturity within the enterprise environment is likely to look like, and the resulting e-security issues and research challenges.
Professor Creese is Director of e-Security based in the International Digital Laboratory within WMG.
