Moderator: Dr. Louis Marinos, Senior Expert - Risk Management, ENISA, EU
Current developments in the area of finance put innovation and risks in new a light and make the debate on their coexistence as interesting as ever before. In this session, we will discuss experiences from innovation activities of “high-tech” organisations from different sizes and sectors. Possible courses of action that have supported innovation will be presented and discussed, especially in areas where ICT deployment plays a fundamental role. Positive and negative aspects from the coexistence of risk posture, innovation and entrepreneurship will be main elements to be addressed during the presentations.
Main focus will be on the relevant risk areas, particular risks and mitigation techniques to surface them. Very important will be to refer on the size, nature and management techniques of residual risks that have been accepted during the innovation process.
Given the context of the Summer School, information security risks will be the main concern of the presentations. This perspective underlines the fact, that good security is an essential component of innovation. In other words, due to their inherent risk exposure, implementations of innovative ideas that do not incorporate reasonable security models will probably not survive in the long term.
