Behind the Firewall and on the Desktop: Does Your Customer Feel Secure?
Security failures have cost the software industry dearly as each new story about problems energizes the debate about the need for better products and more accountability. Not only are customers demanding more, companies are also facing new regulations on compliance, data protection and the like. For the software industry, security is no longer the domain of niche vendors with nifty tools, but a priority that must be built into everything the industry does. Panelists will discuss how the industry must confront not only the technological challenges, but also the psychological and sociological aspects of security to gain and maintain customer's trust.

Is Free Affordable?
Enterprise software is currently undergoing a dramatic, irreversable shift.
The technology that will be integrated into nascent industries or economies will look very differerent than what we've seen in the computer industry in the last 20 years. As more of the world participates in an open network, new licensing and subscription models are emerging that will change the face of computing for the next 20 years.
In this session, John Loiacono will discuss the following:
- The evolution of open source and its impact on software development
- What new subscription models and disruptive pricing will mean for the industry
- The choices and opportunities of Grid Computing

Revoking the Software License: The New Rights Management Paradigm
In all the talk of alternative business models, services, dual core processors, OnDemand and more, some observers say the software license will go the way of the dodo. As software companies and their business models evolve, how does the software license give way to a new era of rights management? We've assembled a group of companies who are actively involved in DRM to talk about what the new parameters of the software industry mean for the tried and true software license.
