Today, Financial services institutions are striving to take advantage of cloud to help them digitally transform, reshape customer experiences and lower IT costs. What's still holding them back is a lack trust and certainty, from across their technical C-suite, that in a Cloud environment they will be able to achieve and demonstrate the security and regulatory compliance that is required for their highly sensitive data and applications.
To address these concerns and de-risk the journey to cloud for the FSS sector, IBM has designed the world’s first financial services-ready public cloud.
To learn about how the ground-breaking financial services-ready public cloud will enable banks and their ecosystem partners to innovate in the Cloud with confidence, join IBM's Hillery Hunter, VP & CTO, IBM Cloud. She will discuss how the platform is setting a new standard for data protection, workload security, risk management and continuous compliance that will provide peace of mind for the CISO, CDO and CTO.
There will be time to ask questions via an online chat, some of which will be answered at the end of the presentation.
Hillery Hunter is the Vice President and CTO of IBM Cloud. Her work focuses on cross-disciplinary technology, spanning silicon to system architecture to achieve new solutions to traditional problems. Her team pursues hardware-software co-optimization to take the wait time out of machine and deep learning problems.
She previously severed as Director of Accelerated Cognitive Infrastructure in IBM Research, leading a team doing cross-stack (hardware through software) optimization of AI workloads, producing productivity breakthroughs of 40x and greater which were transferred into IBM product offerings. In 2010, she was selected by the National Academy of Engineering for its Frontiers in Engineering Symposium, a recognition as one of the top young engineers in America.
Hunter is a BS, MS, and PhD graduate of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, specializing in Electrical Engineering. She is a member of the IBM Academy of Technology and was appointed as an IBM Fellow in 2017.
