Speaker:
Nick Hayes, Analyst Serving Security and Risk Professionals for Forrester

On February 25, 2015 at 1 PM Eastern, join guest speaker, Forrester Analyst Nick Hayes, along with Claudia Dent, Vice President of Product Management & Product Marketing, as we present IT Communications And The Customer: Improving Incident Response To Meet Rising Expectations.

From a customer perspective, the type of crisis or reason for downtime becomes less important today than how quickly you can identify, communicate, and re-mediate the problem. As the volume of groups affected by various technology-related events grows – from security breaches, service outages, application issues, to product recalls – the complexity and importance of an effective communication strategy both grow along with them.

Various stakeholders, including IT operations, technical support teams, C-level executives, other internal teams and customers require information on the incident immediately, and the nature of this communication will also vary by incident type, location and severity. So how can you optimize your IT Operations response and communications to make sure the right people are notified, the issues are resolved, and customers stay happy?

Attend IT Communications And The Customer: Improving Incident Response To Meet Rising Expectations to discover critical IT communication best practices from Forrester’s Nick Hayes. Key concepts include:

  • How rising customer expectations impact the way you deal with downtime, respond to any crisis, and help you build the business case for better incident response
  • Automating and escalating internal communication to ensure the IT staff are notified
  • Incident response and tracking
  • Optimizing internal and external notifications for confirmation (and success)
