ABSTRACT
Automation and digitisation across industry is enabling significant evolution of current technologies and streamlining business process. Data analytic methods that use Machine Learning techniques, including predictive analytics and augmented analytics, can review system information and outputs to detect potential problems and assess risks. Within Defence, this can be realised in many areas including unmanned systems, capability delivery, manufacturing and weaponry. Providing cyber resilient systems that can identify and respond to patterns or behaviours increases the assurance of the systems. The risk? Focusing on supporting systems at the detriment of operational capability. In this session we will discuss Cyber Resilience, Automation and Digitisation and how it can be best applied to get the capability solution 'Just Right'.
The power of AI and Quantum coupled with the constantly evolving cyber threat and global security uncertainty is the backdrop to why Fujitsu constantly evolves as the Digital Transformation partner of choice. Our human-centric approach moves people higher up the value chain, where decision-making is evidence-based, data-driven and blended with intuition. We are witnessing a shift where machines can increasingly outperform conventional decision-making, Fujitsu is at the vanguard of exploiting these frontier-technologies. The challenge? Knowing where and when to use these technologies to ensure best value for money capability is provided to the warfighter, without impeding their ability to defend Australia and its national interests.
BIOGRAPHY
Most recently, Brendan was Technical Services Manager on the Fleet Information Environment (FIE) modernisation, Project Minerva. Responsible for the approach, design, development, and delivery of the ICT solutions, Brendan navigated the uniquely challenging Maritime environment to deliver sea, battle and cyber-worthy ICT systems across several security enclaves, to better enable Navy to ‘fight and win at sea’.
Introducing leading edge technologies, Brendan has worked closely with Defence to ensure fit for purpose technologies were delivered to support and enable the warfighter in all environs. Brendan is continuing to drive 'end to end' innovation across the fixed and portable systems within the SIE.
