"Holding a user conference is a major milestone for any company. Our inaugural user conference underscores Druva's growth and expansion, from our initial focus on backup for the mobile workforce to offering a complete availability and governance solution for distributed data," said Jaspreet Singh, CEO, Druva. "We chose 'ILLUMINATE' as our conference name, since our objective is to help illuminate attendees' knowledge of the issues and practices for data protection and governance. From sessions and keynotes to tutorials and networking, the conference provided a wealth of information, tips and advice that participants can now put into practice within their organizations."
The ILLUMINATE15 agenda was designed for IT professionals working in infrastructure, operations, end-user productivity, mobility and governance Featured speakers included Jaspreet Singh, CEO, DruvaJason Buffington, Senior AnalystEnterprise Strategy Group, Shawn Anderson, Global Ecosystem Lead for Cyber Security, Amazon Web Services, Jay Anderson, Chief Information Officer, ServiceNow, Jim Jacob, Director, Site Support Service, Leidos and Bruce Sherman, Senior Associate, Booz Allen Hamilton.

"The key is to make data discoverable and usable -- a living asset for your company. Data is moving out of the data center and going to mobile and the cloud. In fact, 50 percent of your data will be outside the data center by 2020, according to IDC." -
"Anyone in the business can sign up for a SaaS service, but IT ends up having to manage it... No matter what app or solution you end up selecting, compliance and security are a must. As solutions are explored and vetted, growing and scaling the business should also be considered in parallel -- meaning IT should be part of the business growth discussions, not just an afterthought." -
"There are questions you need to ask. You need to ask about data residency -- what are the regional, cross-geography data controls? Can data be moved to other regions? In terms of data privacy, what controls are in place to provide ethical walls? In terms of data security, how is the data encrypted and stored in transit and at rest? And in terms of residency, ensure your cloud data isn't moving around to non-compliance locations." -
Druva also announced three customer awards during ILLUMINATE15, recognizing the innovative implementation and use of Druva. The winners were:
"Most Innovative Druva Implementation" - Booz Allen Hamilton
