About

I'm Stephen F. DeAngelis, a technologist who creates businesses at the intersection of technology and major business and global trends. In the immediate aftermath of the September 11 attacks, I developed Enterprise Resilience Management to provide a new enterprise framework– a methodology and a technology solution for managing an organization’s critical processes, people and technologies – that:

• unifies security, compliance and performance into a single, organization-wide capability.
• identifies critical assets – then automates the processes that support them.
• distributes information across the organization, so that managers and decision-makers can act on it in real time.

We are developing Enterprise Resilience Management products and services at my company, Enterra Solutions. You can find out more at our corporate website -- www.enterrasolutions.com.

I also serve as a Visiting Scientist at both Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the Software Engineering Institute of Carnegie Mellon University as well as a Senior Fellow and Adjunct Professor the United States Merchant Marine Academy in King’s Point, New York. I am also the Executive Director of the Institute for Advanced Technologies in Global Resilience which is part of the Oak Ridge Center for Advanced Studies.

In this blog, I discuss issues in globalization and organizational change, and the challenges -- ranging from terrorist threats to natural disasters to compliance and performance demands -- that organizations have to meet. Our goal is to advance the public discussion about Enterprise Resilience Management and the new organizational environment.
