Cloud Risk Management for Inhouse Counsel

Introduction

Organisations of all sizes are adopting 'cloud first' strategies in order to benefit from the cost savings of using public cloud infrastructure and the opportunity to use best-in-class SaaS solutions for specific business functions.

This can often involve integrations of multiple different services as part of a solution, creating a complex IT environment. On top of this, the change cycles of third-party cloud providers make change management an ongoing part of life rather than a specific project, with a clearly defined end.

The aim of this virtual classroom seminar is to provide practical tips on what in-house counsel as well as IT procurement and contract management professionals can do to mitigate risks arising from complex cloud first IT projects in multi-vendor environments, including contractual considerations at the outset and practical mitigations through the project lifecycle.
