| Session 1 - What is Software Asset Management? – IT Cost Savings and Security |
| This session will focus on the fact that over 70 percent of IT leaders say they have not created a formal Software Asset Management (SAM) strategy, which means many companies lack a clear view of their virtual assets. Failure to conduct SAM assessments leads to increased cyber security exposure, inefficient IT spend and high legal and reputational risk around noncompliance. |
