IT leaders are under pressure to innovate their organization’s tech stack to meet the demands of modern business. While web-based apps, AI and other modern solutions offer a better user experience, advanced security and simpler management, many businesses are still critically dependent on legacy apps and systems. How can IT teams innovate their infrastructure without disrupting operations and end users? This session breaks down some common misconceptions about modernization and reveals a direct path for IT leaders towards more efficient, secure, and cost-effective endpoint management.

Join this session and breakout-style conversation with your peers to discuss:

• What the modern endpoint looks like for enterprises today
• How modernization unlocks the power of AI and sharpens your competitive edge
• How to continue using legacy apps while you innovate

With the rate at which technology is evolving, leaders often feel like they’re left playing catch up. How can you create an approach that enables your organization to leverage emerging technologies to benefit the entire organization?

While the vast majority of infrastructure has been upgraded and modernized to support the shift to the cloud, enterprise IT teams are still missing an equally seamless access method to deliver cloud-native apps and data to their end users. While traditional browsers have become the de-facto access point for the majority of business-critical applications, they lack the deep visibility and hyper-granular policy controls enterprises need. This results in IT leaders surrounding their browsers with layers of tech to meet those needs.

Join this breakout session to discover:

• Why traditional cloud security methods undermine your modernization efforts and end-user experience
• Embracing technological momentum to adapt to a "more-with-less" IT landscape
• How enterprise CIOs are using this solution to bolster cloud security

Information technology has the potential to move from a back-office department to a crucial business driver. In order to do so, technology leaders must be able to tell a compelling story that highlights their team’s value to the rest of the organization.

Join this session to discuss:

• Elevating IT to every aspect of the business
• Evolving from sustainers to transformers
