THIS EVENT IS NOW CLOSED
20 September 2018 - 09:00 - 12:00 BST - The Grange St. Paul's Hotel, London UK
In partnership with Infosecurity Magazine, Forum Systems is hosting an important breakfast briefing looking at how your API strategy can reduce complexity, simplify IAM, and provide advanced predictions using AI and ML.
APIs are the central point of modern communication and APIs are involved in almost every interaction with a digital device or service. A sound API strategy is essential for IT modernization and enables the benefits of a less complex architecture and combining and consolidating technologies.
With Identity Access Management (IAM) essential to an enterprise strategy, the logical evolution of IAM is to include IAM with APIs. During this conference we will look at how to achieve a simpler and more secure approach to API and IAM.
In addition, we will discuss how artificial intelligence and machine learning represent the next frontier of cybersecurity strategy and business analytics. For those interested in joining us in the afternoon, we will conduct a workshop showcasing how APIs work in conjunction with AI and ML to provide anomaly predictions as well as other areas of advanced predictive analytics for business insights.

Evolving challenges for modern enterprise architectures in the age of APIs APIs are a transformative technology changing the landscape of computing. IT modernization and the need to adopt cloud and mobile strategies have forged a path for enterprises to adopt API architectures. However, not all API strategies are the same. Opening up communication borders also elevates risk to cyber-attack. Considering sound architecture design around principles of API security allow the realization of an API strategy while at the same time reducing the risks of API threats.

Q&A followed by Lunch |
In addition to the breakfast briefing event there is an optional afternoon workshop on:
Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
According to Professor Andrew Ng, “Artificial Intelligence is the new electricity.” Much like electricity changed society, artificial intelligence has had a profound impact on the way we live.
In the afternoon workshop session, Forum Systems will introduce fundamentals of AI and ?Machine ?Learning along with its application to APIs. The workshop will include:
- Basics of machine learning: from logistic regression to neural networks.
- Building a neural network: a walk-through.
- Using machine learning with your APIs: profiling performance and security.
