Why attend
The Open Group's previous Conferences have explored Security and
other Requirements for eBusiness and the theme of Trust and
Confidence. It is clear that a more pro-active and methodical
approach - Active Loss Prevention -
is essential to the future growth of eBusiness, and to building
trust and confidence in these systems.
This Active Loss Prevention Conference is the first opportunity
to explore and work on the subject. CIOs, IT specialists and legal,
audit and insurance professionals can learn more, get engaged, and
influence the result.
