CHICAGO, July 17, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Crowe and the
Department of Computer and Information Technology (CIT) at Purdue
Polytechnic Institute recently established the Purdue-Crowe Digital
Risk Collaboratory. The culmination of two years of work, this
collaboratory will serve to develop opportunities in sponsored and
government-funded research, with both sides working together on
select Crowe client projects and services.
Combining the client engagement experience of Crowe with
Purdue's world-class research, faculty
and students, the collaboratory will undertake joint projects for
new clients, conduct federal and nonfederal research on digital
risk issues and provide education. CIT faculty, staff and students
will work closely with Crowe personnel to develop and test new risk
management solutions for the digital age. The collaboratory is also
developing executive training courses on how to manage digital risk
for business executives.
"Leveraging our client leadership with Purdue's research leadership is an outstanding
value proposition," said Steve Strammello, managing partner, Crowe
risk consulting. "We're investing in a future where our clients can
maximize the adoption of digital-era tools and technologies while
minimizing the risks associated with digital transformation. We
believe this alliance will advance how organizations manage risk as
they transform their businesses into the digital age."
"The decision to collaborate is a bold and aggressive move by
both sides to establish a more extensive foundation for digital and
cyber risks, creating real-world application opportunities for
ongoing research and projects," said Marcus
Rogers, head of CIT. "The collaboratory solidifies that
exchange of ideas and the public-private partnership concept."
Purdue's internationally renowned
strengths, including robotics, artificial intelligence,
cybersecurity and technology-enabled learning, allow for a
multidisciplinary approach to meet future challenges. Work
continues on setting up a mutually beneficial location for the
collaboratory.
