It's all about the pharmaceutical industry today as we check in on one of our earlier guests on “Under the Radar” to find out what's next for them.  Known as MSD everywhere outside of the US and Canada, our guest aims to harness the power of leading-edge science to improve lives globally, and has been on the path of doing so for over 130 years, through the development of medicines and vaccines.  The firm's businesses span across three big categories, namely pharmaceuticals, vaccines and animal health, generating US$60.1 billion in worldwide revenue in 2023. It set up shop in Asia Pacific over 60 years ago, and now has a footprint in 12 regional markets such as Australia, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Korea, Singapore, Malaysia and more.  Back home, MSD set up its APAC headquarters as well as a Technology Centre here in Singapore.

It also recently celebrated its 30 years in the country.  But why are we speaking to MSD you might ask? Well, MSD's venture unit is reportedly said to be planning to spend US$38 million across Europe and Asia in the three years from June 2024 to double down on its presence in the two key markets.  But what kind of target firms is the firm looking for? What technologies does MSD want to build along with entrepreneurs in the two identified regions? How will MSD's Singapore's technology centre support this? On Under the Radar, The Evening Runway's finance presenter Chua Tian Tian posed these questions to Abdullahi Sheriff, Managing Director, MSD Singapore, Malaysia and Brunei and Julie Olszewski, Executive Director and Communications and Change Management Lead, Chief Technology Office at MSD.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

August 27, 2021: The IT system is a living, breathing organism. It changes. It evolves. Things are added. Things are removed. Things are altered. It's a living, breathing beast. And that's how you have to look at it. David Ting, Chief Technology Office and Founder, takes us through his journey from Imprivata to Tausight. Tausight is designed to help CIOs and CISOs ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of PHI. It's not a matter of IF you'll have a cyber incident. It's a matter of WHEN. And more importantly, how do you get back to business? How do you start the defense of your system? How do you gain visibility into the PHI? How it's used, where it's moving to, how it's secured and who's using it? How do you get statistical data from across your entire infrastructure to say how consistent can I make my infrastructure and how precise can that be?Key Points:I see healthcare IT systems as truly a mission critical infrastructure [00:02:35] Healthcare unlike the other verticals is hyper-connected [00:06:15] How do you respond to rogue software that worms its way across multiple end points? [00:32:50]  I hate to use the word AI because it's really an extension of just better data science and being able to see insights from the noise of the data [00:42:36] Tausight

Stanley Tyliszczak, staff vice president for Technology Integration and chief engineer within General Dynamics Information Technology’s Chief Technology Office, discusses IT modernization and strategies to meet the evolving IT needs in the federal market.

Stephen Gatchell is currently a Chief Data Officer Engineering Analytics & Data Lake at EMC and serves on the EMC Data Governance Office, Master Data Management and Business Data Lake Operating committee’s developing EMC’s corporate strategies for the Business Data Lake, Advanced Analytics and Information Asset Management.  Stephen also serves as a Customer Insight Analyst for the Chief Technology Office analyzing customer technology challenges and requirements. Show notes at http://hellotechpros.com/stephen-gatchell-technology/ Key Takeaways A data lake is a way to democratize data. It can be structure, unstructured or semi-structured including all of the data assets including visualizations, tables and views. The idea of a data lake is to break down the silos between the departments and come up with innovative solutions across a variety of different sources. The use cases are very important. Historically, "big data" was 1 GB and all of it was managed by IT. The data would be imported into a BI system in order to analyze. There was no drill down into the raw data from a report. Today data analysts are at all levels of the organization in all departments. HR, legal, engineering, interns and VPs are all analysts. Now we need real-time data with access across the organization. The people, process and technology have all progressed over the last few decades. People who want to drill down to get to the results. Process to get the analytics updated in real time. Open source technology allows anyone to build their own database. A data scientist is a subject matter expert (SME) that understands the data and also can code. They don't need to have a mathematical background but they are studying statistics and want to generate a D3 visualization. Rogue IT is a good thing (as long as they aren't a security risk). We want the business to understand technology. IT needs to keep the lights on and support the business in finding new tech. IT needs to look for end-to-end solutions that help many groups across the org. Data lake, visualization, ingestion tools for example. The next things in Big Data are data governance, MDM and data quality. What is the value of this data to our business? Natural Language Query (NLQ) will enable a no-UI analytics engine. Flash storage will allow petabytes to be searched very quickly. Always learn, build connections and be as persistent as possible.

The ongoing explosion of data and information throughout the enterprise is undeniable. Sensitive data, whether structured or unstructured, finds itself replicated and dispersed. This creates a challenge for information security professionals to prevent the flow of this information to unauthorized or inappropriate destinations.The security community has made great progress in protecting this data and information while it is at rest or in use. But ... is there more that can be done?Companies are now asking, "Who moved my data and where did it go? Was it an appropriate flow from one internal department to another? Was the flow intended for a trusted business partner? Or ... was my data heading for an unknown destination, a competitor or a pool of cybercriminals?"End point controls, access controls, database monitoring and encryption are all important components of a solid layered security approach. However tools that provide visibility and control over "data in motion" deliver critical capabilities that none of these other components can adequately address. When prioritizing various components or layers of an information security implementation, it has been argued that a solid "data in motion" component can provide 80% of the bang for 20% of the buck (and effort!)This presentation focuses on methods and techniques in wire speed detection and control of data in motion. The presentation will include:approaches to detecting simple patterns emphasizing low false positivesadvances in wire speed pattern matching enabling protection of specific fields or combination of fields in a databasepolicy designs that combine network application controls with content identification and controlwire speed blocking that does not require a proxy About the speaker: Mr. Leonard is responsible for bringing to market an advanced Deep Packet Inspection device focused on Information Leak Prevention and other leading edge security applications for Global Velocity.He has spent over 25 years in Communications Technology, with experience ranging from Military systems to global fortune 100 networks to modern day internet solutions.
