ISACA Session (12.00 – 12.45)

Topic: " The design patterns of Fawlty governance "

As enterprise architects you may not have the say over IT governance, but it for sure affects project velocity, cost and effectiveness of enterprise architecture itself. In this session we look at some prevailing governance "designs" and what their impact and consequences are for projects and enterprise architecture, all with a touch of humour. We’ll take a look at the spectrum of functional- to fully projectized models in an effort to understand what is elegant and what works,and at why agile techniques like scrum have a natural ability to do the guerrilla act on governance without anyone knowing.

Presenter : Jan Wijninckx , SmartMatix

Jan Wijninckx (pronounced Yan Vaynings) has had roles like enterprise architect for Dutch KPN (telecom), project office manager at NZ Post and setup the Telecom NZ Next generation Network program office including its IT governance. In addition he has been project manager on many software development projects and is an advocate of "agile, yet planable" software development techniques. Through his project office data he knows that governance is the number one factor for project success (or failure).

Jan works for SmartMatix, a company which helps organisations improve IT development productivity through adopting CMMI practices. In addition SmartMatix markets its own requirements management tool which allows customers amongst others to trace code changes to tests and documentation.

Associate Professor Hank Wolfe (not to be confused with Heinz Wolff) has been an active computer professional for more than 50 years and has specialised in computer security. During that period he has earned an international reputation in the field of electronic forensics, encryption, surveillance, privacy and computer virus defences.

He has provided advice on security matters to major government bodies within New Zealand and to Australian, Panamanian, Singaporean and U.S. Government organizations; and additionally to New Zealand businesses and the major New Zealand Internet Service Providers. Over the past twenty-five or so years he has conducted and supervised more than 130 computer security audits of New Zealand businesses and government bodies.
 
Dr Wolfe speaks on security and privacy issues (both technical and policy) regularly at international conferences. His primary research interest is the emerging discipline of computer forensics as well as private communications techniques, which focus on the implementation of various cryptographic algorithms that are currently available and the associated hardware and software necessary to implement such systems.
