Agenda PSN - Why Change Economic Efficiencies PSN – Momentum Security at the Edge Challenges for Governance Direction
PSN - Why Change “The cost of doing business with old processes and systems maybe costing you business. After all change is unavoidable, but how you deal with it is not.”
PSN - Why Change Most departments, agencies, local authorities, police authorities etc have their own network. At least 2000 networks exist, connecting around 5.5 million public sector workers over hundreds of sites. The aim of PSN is to work with these bodies to rationalise and standardise the networks to: savings on duplicated connections, multiple procurements and service and maintenance overheads; enhance the ability for collaborative working between departments - deliver service efficiency and enable the sharing of sensitive information; make mobile working easier, offering potential savings from flexible working and better use of public estates; and provide opportunities to share applications and data centre capacity.

Challenges for Governance How can a school afford compliance? Increasing Academy opt outs Demand for Social Media type access Keeping secure data segmented from the public domain Storage and records in a virtualised world Greater transparency - FOI Collaboration across boundaries
Security at the edge New responsibilities pushed downwards – more accountability Who is accessing which applications and when Has the appropriate authentication taken place Secure work stations How will a primary school cope Cyber security PSN Compliance The role of the SIRO IL3/IL2 (IPSEC)
Direction Local Authority Data and Cyber security is paramount Increasing LA accountability Do more with less – shared networks, shared services Cost savings – procurement channels PSN Catalyst for Change – Collaboration - Mobility Procurement model to commoditise services Revised set of rules for network integrity
