I urge you to attend IA09…it will
provide a powerful forum to take
forward information risk
management in government…
SIR GUS O’DONNELL KCB Cabinet Secretary and Head of the Home Civil Service
Welcome to IA09
Iain Lobban, Director, GCHQ
Iain Lobban, Director of GCHQ, introduces IA09 and highlights
some of the priorities that will focus the government’s premier
Information Assurance event this year.
In the last 12 months, the collective response
to the requirements identified in the Data
Handling Review (DHR) has been impressive.
We need to see those activities through in
the coming year and build on the emerging
examples of excellence we have in
information risk management in the
public and private sector.
However, there is a more strategic and
enduring threat to citizen and government
data and we must respond to that threat
with the same determination and energy that
has characterised the follow-up to the DHR.
Improving information risk management in
government is key to success. The delivery
of enhanced government services to the
citizen will go forward under Transformational
Government – the challenge is to enable that
delivery whilst managing the associated risks
to our information. We must all understand
our respective roles in rising to that challenge.
The strength of our IA capability across
government must be enhanced by increasing
the knowledge and professionalism of
our decision makers, their advisers and
implementers. At IA09 a strong focus will
be placed on education and training and
the delivery of culture change, sharing
some fascinating case studies.
Industry has a critical role to play in helping
us deliver IA across government, which is why
the creation of a viable, vibrant IA industry is
a further priority – strong collaboration must
be the way forward.
IA09 will provide a powerful platform for the
most senior information risk experts from
across government and industry. It is a vital
opportunity to bring together the key players
involved in ensuring effective government by
safeguarding citizen and government data in
the Internet Age.

WHY AttEND IA09?
We asked you what is
keeping you awake at night
and what you wanted to hear
at IA09. It has produced some
compelling content that
addresses today’s challenges.
know what is eXpected of you
in the coming year
As the pace of implementation picks up,
so do the mandated requirements from
government. IA09 is a key platform for the
government to communicate changes and
plans. By making sure you’re in the room,
you’ll give your organisation the best chance
of being at the forefront of that change.
answer the Question: how far
have we come in managing the
nation’s information risk?
It’s two years since the launch of the National
IA Strategy at IA07, and 12 months following
the Data Handling Review, which provided
much of the focus for IA08. Before we get
into the next steps of implementation, this
year’s flagship event will pause to take stock
on progress to-date. Hear first hand from
Sir Gus O’Donnell, Cabinet Secretary and
Head of the Home Civil Service, the progress
that is being made, the challenges that we
all face, and the critical next steps.
find out what real help is
available now, not Just what’s
on the drawing board
Explore the range of expertise, research
and services that CESG has poised to make
your IA journey as pain free as possible. Find
out what is available now, and how you can
make the most of these products and services.
take away tried and tested
solutions for culture change
Following in the footsteps of other
organisations, first you’ll identify current
perceptions and attitudes, and then you’ll
be introduced to awareness tools that can
alter this mind-set. Online tools, marketing
techniques and innovative approaches will
all be put under the spotlight, focusing
specifically on how you can improve their
effectiveness.
drive assurance down the
supply chain
Recent data losses have highlighted the
vulnerability the delivery chain can represent
to government departments. The sheer
number of suppliers, uncertainty around
the information security measures they may
have in place, and their possible reluctance
to invest, all adds to this complex challenge.
Join suppliers and government bodies
to debate ways to tackle this problem.
hear best practice in information
sharing
Data sharing is critical in delivering
Transformational Government – but how
do you go about it securely? What are
the recommended guidelines? Get clear
direction from the top, and hear best practice
examples of central and wider government
delivering enhanced citizen service through
information sharing.
soak up the wide variety of lessons
learnt in the last 12 months
The last 12 months probably mark the greatest
upheaval and change the IA community has
ever seen. Important lessons have been learnt.
IA09 will round up all this invaluable knowledge
so you can share the successes and ‘war stories’
of your colleagues from across government.
see the value of ia laid bare
IA09 will tackle the elusive question of
the true value of Information Assurance.
IA costs money, and yes, it delivers important
business benefits, but to what extent do
they justify the investment? By examining the
return on investment and the cost of incident
management, you should leave with more
ammunition to make your business case.
eXplore the implications of the
credit crunch on ia
What are the likely implications of the current
economic climate? On government budgets?
Suppliers ability to pitch for bids? On the
make-up of the supply chain? Join in discussion
around these key issues.
bring your ia into the 21st century
Looking to the future, IA09 will explore the
implications of modern day phenomena such as
social networking, remote working, and green
IT. You’ll hear expert opinions on the increased
level of threat, and you’ll go on to debate how
to deal with the implications without restricting
development in these key areas.
what’s new at ia09?
More sessions
This year’s packed agenda features
seven streams, plus workshops and
topic tables running alongside them.
Hand pick sessions that are relevant to you
from over 60 individual presentations.
‘Last chance’ stream
The vast choice means the sessions
you most want to attend may clash.
So you don’t miss out, we will be
running a ‘last chance’ stream to
repeat the most popular presentations.
More delegates
Without sacrificing the seniority of
delegates this year, we are reaching
out even more to those responsible
for information risk management
from across the wider public sector so
delegate numbers this year will increase
by 30%. Don’t miss out on the chance
to network with this diverse audience.

Why sponsor IA09?
If you want to build your brand, raise
awareness, generate leads or all of the
above, IA09 provides a prime opportunity
for your organisation. Here are just some
of the reasons to get involved.
A package to suit your needs
Our sponsorship packages have been
carefully thought through to make sure there
is something to match your business’s needs.
But if you can’t find the right fit, give us a
call and we can tailor a package to suit you.
Make sure your key contacts don’t miss you
Often conferences don’t always connect
exhibitors with delegates’ needs. IA09 is
different. IA08 delegates commented that
they found the exhibition to be an essential
source of information and a great place to
network with industry contacts.
A clear return on your investment
We understand that ROI is important to you.
The environment at IA09 is designed to
maximise interaction between sponsors and
delegates so you can make the connections
you want to help your business thrive.
Ensure your voice is heard
This year’s programme is all about implementation
and delivery of IA. Delegates and sponsors
alike will be invited to participate, debate and
provide feedback. It will be an unrivalled
opportunity for your brand and business to
show its thought leadership and engagement
with the issues addressed in the programme.
Network with new faces
IA is now, more than ever, at the top of the
government’s agenda. We’re harnessing this
momentum to attract new faces from across
the public sector to the event, and maximising
networking opportunities to enable you to
meet them.
Supporting
Associations
