Topic: Government Department Merger from a Security Perspective

Mergers and acquisitions are a common occurrence in both private and public sectors. However, the recent merger of Medicare Australia, Child Support Program, Commonwealth Rehabilitation Service and Centrelink to make the Department of Human Services was never going to be easy. In this presentation, Nigel will highlight some of the issues and lessons learnt from participation in this merger.

 

Presenter: Nigel Cox

Nigel has been a member of the AISA Canberra Committee since early 2009, and an AISA member since 2006.

He is currently Operations Manager, Security IT Services at the Department of Human Services, and has worked at this Department in its current form and its former guise as Centrelink since 1997. Prior to that he worked in Security at the Department of Veteran Affairs and the Department of Administrative Services, and in Mainframe Software and Operations roles at Ampol and Xerox.
