Financial Services Edition

ON-DEMAND

Automation helps financial services and insurance enterprises on their path to digital transformation.

Automation is critical to managing, changing, and adapting not only your IT and network infrastructure, but the way your business operates through its processes. By simplifying change through automation, you gain the time and resources to focus on innovation. The automated enterprise's goal is to get work done faster. This allows IT and the business to focus on bigger issues, resolving them, and—in turn—making them routine and eligible for automation.

Session

10:00 - 10:15The evolution of automation: going to the next level
Joseph Fitzgerald, VP & General Manager Management & Automation BU, Red Hat
As organizations accelerate their digital transformation efforts they are embracing new hybrid IT models that include a mix of traditional, private and public cloud technologies. Workload strategies in these new models must consider cost, availability, security and reliability, as well as compliance and regulatory requirements. Many enterprises have evolved from use of on-premises virtualization and private clouds to hybrid and, frequently, multicloud environments. Simple, powerful management solutions for hybrid and multicloud environments will solve this paradigma.

13:00 - 13:30Shining a bright light on the known, unknowns: Using artificial intelligence, automation and cloud technology to combat financial crime.
Eric Marts, Principal Marketing Manager, Financial Services, Red Hat
Dagan Osovlansky, Chief Product Officer, ThetaRay
Moderator: David Hutchison-Bird, Director Business Development, Red Hat
Criminals continue to seek new ways to hide nefarious activity within the financial systems that our economies rely on. Artificial intelligence can be a powerful tool in the arsenal, but requires accurate and up to date information to effectively detect problematic transactions. The push for fresh and up to date information means infrastructure and data need to be more malleable than ever before.

In this session you will hear from Thetaray and Red Hat on how artificial intelligence, automation and cloud technology are being used to improve the detection of financial crime.

Monica Sasso, EMEA FSI Chief Technologist, Red Hat
Given the rapid pace of technology expansion in financial services, it’s easy to forget the foundational pillar of financial services is trust. Many organisations believe that investing in new tools will transform their business, and now many are starting to be vocal that people and process are often the greatest obstacles to change. Join Monica and Will in discussing how technology can present provenance, traceability, and transparency through automated governance to establish trust, which is the currency of regulatory compliance.
