SUMMARY:BCPA - April Meeting: Applying Telework for Fiscal and Operational Performance
DESCRIPTION:How Does a Strategic Business Continuity / Disaster Recovery program benefit from a Strategic Telework Program? \nContinuity planning is one of the fundamental keys to an organization’s Strategic Deployment Plans.  In order to remotely support a total facility disaster\, every role must be identified and analyzed to determine how that role is fulfilled.  To ensure that all of these roles are sustained remotely\, a significant staff deployment is required.  The level of continuity-assigned remote workers\, defines the facility right-sizing process\, the greater the number of staff deployed\, the greater the demand for space is reduced.  This facility reduction requires a plan.  In addition\, the products and services that employees would need to accomplish their COOP assignments modifies the configurations provided to other remote employees in the same occupation.  This also provides another set of training modules.  The Continuity Plan consists of different deployment levels based upon the levels and types of disaster deployment. \nJohn Sanger’s career has evolved in response to his ever-increasing concern about the viability of “Community”; two principles have remained constant\, his project outcomes must first of all be economically sustainable and secondly\, the benefits must be applied to all stakeholders. \nBefore forming Tele-Commuter Resources (TCR) he supported city planning efforts and performed the largest EIS at the time for Cedar Riverside and Jonathon; the experience defined the benefits of strategic integration.  Developing several MIS projects defined the challenge of strategic vs. transactional system development. \nIn 1991\, John convened a group of colleagues to determine how to best apply information age technology to address rural degeneration. They formed Tele-Commuter Resources in 1992 as a non-profit\, dedicated to “Building Stronger Communities through Telecommuting”.  Over the years\, reports to the legislature included a Checklist for Action that focused on 27 suggestions about how to prepare the state for the Information Age.  This led to passing two laws\, one establishing the state’s telework program and the other applying strategic telework to the bonding process to “right-size” state office facilities.  TCR’s first 2 years conducted extensive research which concluded that corporate telework was the fundamental application to achieve TCR’s mission and that the dominant ad hoc approach was woefully inadequate to fulfill it. The magnitude of the telework potential was demonstrated by the 25 telework assessments TCR conducted; they found an average of 60% deplorability and that no organization knew how to achieve it. \nIn 2020\, TCR received a patent for its Workforce Virtualization Program\, an integrated software/consultant process that: \n\ndevelops a deployment plan based upon business continuity\, facility right-sizing and a comprehensive staff deployment process\nsupports the creation of the Regional Monitor which:\n\n\na)establishes the first national database for telework policy and best practice research\, and\nb)generates a data collection and analysis process to support community decision-making\n\n\nprovides for an urban partnership to support transportation and infrastructure forecasting\, emergency management planning\, and which offers a significant climate change impact\, while laying the groundwork for\nimplementing the Smart Region Concept (patent pending) which rebalances the demographic profile in our rural communities\, integrates the urban-rural economies\, establishes the first state-wide comprehensive plan\, establishes a powerful political role for “community”\n\n

SUMMARY:Government IT Encore Session: Securing Your Business and Family During a Disaster
DESCRIPTION:As part of the Government IT Symposium\, Fusion Learning Partners is offering a variety of learning session throughout the year – FREE of charge for government IT professionals. These sessions are curated with our partners\, and designed to bring you timely and relevant information to support the work you are doing in these challenging and rapidly changing times.\nSESSION DETAILS:  \nIn fall of 2019\, Brian Johnson lost all his personal possessions\, both family vehicles\, his home office and several critical business assets in a house fire. He and his family literally walked away with only the clothes on their backs. The situation forced Brian to run his business out of an apartment while the Johnson family worked out their personal\, professional and emotional recovery plan – mostly on the fly. While working through this tragedy over the last year\, Brian has put together a series of tips\, self-assessment questions\, anecdotes and lessons learned – all with the goal of helping individuals and businesses be more prepared before disaster strikes. Brian’s session will explore important questions such as: \n\nWhat does the “day after” look like for your business and family when you have no identification\, no cash\, no ATM/credit cards\, no computer and no vehicles?\nDo you have adequate insurance coverage to fully cover your home and/or business property losses?\nHow transparently should you communicate the disaster to clients and prospects?\nCan your business’s backup/DR plan fully recover systems and data in the event of a complete physical structure loss?

SUMMARY:MN ISSA Chapter Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Meeting Agenda \n\n1:00 -1:15 Announcements\n1:15-2:05 Validate Your Disaster Recovery Strategy: Ensuring Your Plan Works\n2:05-2:25 Break/Sponsor Spotlight\n2:25-3:15 Cyber Security after SolarWinds Orion\n3:15-3:30 Wrap Up\n\nSpeakers: Matt Schillerstrom\, Product Manager\, Gremlin \nCalvin Weeks\, EnCE\, CEDS\, CRISC\, CISSP\, CISM – Senior Consultant II\, Optiv Security \nPresentation #1:  Validate Your Disaster Recovery Strategy: Ensuring Your Plan Works \nWe all know it’s crucial to have a disaster recovery plan. But\, you can’t rely on it until you prove it actually works. Don’t wait for a real disaster to find out if your plan will work as expected. Build confidence in your disaster recovery plan by proactively validating it with chaos engineering. \nPresentation #2:  Cyber Security after SolarWinds Orion \nEveryone is aware of the threats to organizations every day and sometimes with real impact to peoples everyday lives. Such as what happened with the Colonial Pipeline ransomware attack and causing a run on gas stations in the eastern US and gas prices to go up everywhere. What confidence we had with the security tools we use to protect us is now gone when those security tools allows a major breach to occur. This presentation will focus on the reality of what the SolarWinds Orion compromise means going forward when trust is lost for security tools.
