Creating a Cyber-Security Culture: Kevin Keane & John Mumford show that cyber-security training has measurable ROI. Considering the financial impact of loss in productivity or long-term consequences from reputational damage; cyber security awareness training is worth its weight in gold. And what you can do about it. If you are in a leadership role for your team, company, or organization, this non-technical information dissemination we believe should prove timely and useful.
Relax and click on the video, and in less than 35 minutes, you will hear from Mr. Mumford and Mr. Keane and get what you need to know. A Q&A follows. |

Data, Data Everywhere: Aron Brand & John Mumford discuss the impact and the sources for the information necessary for the growth of cyber-security threats and how to protect your organization's information. Whether it is for making sure your business doesn't get damaged, or the race for the highest office in the US, hackers are finding new ways to exploit the massive use of the Cloud. Mr. Mumford and Mr. Brand who will detail where and how hackers are gaining access.
And what you can do about it. If you are in a leadership role for your team, company, or organization, this non-technical information dissemination you will most likely find profoundly useful. |

What is Hybrid Cloud Storage: George Crump talks about one of the key challenges to any data protection strategy is deciding where to store data and how to get that data off-site. Initially in most environments, all backups were stored on tape. Those tapes were then packaged up and shipped to an off-site location. Then disk-based backup appliances came to market and, leveraging deduplication, were able to replicate data directly to a remote location. Each of these had challenges and the cloud is being viewed as a way to overcome them. But the cloud also has problems, especially in terms of recovery. As a result, a mix, or 'hybrid.' approach is now being offered as the nirvana of data protection.

Scale Out & Object Storage: Speaking at the 2013 Email Summit in NY, Marc Staimer, Chief CDS at Dragonslayer Consulting, discusses Scale-Out Storage strategies and the use of Object Storage technology to address common scaling issues. Traditional storage-area network (SAN), network-attached storage (NAS), and unified-storage systems are not, and never have been, designed to deal with exascale problems, which involve more than 1,000 petabytes (PB) or 1 million terabytes (TB) of data. In fact, most are barely capable of managing low levels of petascale problems. Today, even scale-out SAN and NAS are not capable of solving exascale problems that lay in the not-too-distant future.

The Business Benefits of Options and Flexibility in Data Deduplication: In this video, Greg Schulz, the Founder of StorageIO, author "Cloud and Virtual Data Storage Networking" and "The Green and Virtual Data Center", talks about the importance of data footprint reduction, He discusses how it can help drive efficiencies so that more can be done with available resources and technology improvements while supporting demand. Mr. Schulz makes the case that by reducing your data footprint, more data can be moved in the same or less time to meet service requirements. He has been a tremendous value to us at TriAxis over the years, and to the storage and server community at large
