Total Mobility: The Positive Impact of Flexible Working Made Clear for IT managers

For IT managers, the real impact of the shift to remote working lies in the effect on day-to-day activities. Ultimately, this will involve the selection, integration and adoption of new technology. But before it gets to this stage, there is an important role for IT managers in understanding why people choose to ‘work from anywhere’, where they would like to work, and what benefits they are expecting.

The State of Digital Downloads

The way we interact with the world is transforming, thanks to the devices we use every day—tablets, smartphones, computers, and gaming consoles. No longer do we look to analog sources of information and entertainment. We are increasingly beholden to a blossoming digital world through which we acquire information, express ourselves, and interact with each other. The result is a growing relationship with those devices. From sun-up to sundown, they keep us connected to the digital content and applications that have begun to define our lives.

VM-Backup: Veeam vs. herkömmliche Backup-Tools

Herkömmliche Backup-Tools werden den heutigen Anforderungen an das Always-On Business™ nicht gerecht. Sie wurden für physische Backups entwickelt und brauchen oft Stunden oder sogar Tage, um Vorgaben für Wiederherstellungszeiten (Recovery Time Objectives, RTOs) und Wiederherstellungspunkte (Recovery Point Objectives, RPOs) zu erfüllen. Veeam® Backup & Replication™ unterstützt Unternehmen unter dem Motto Availability for the Modern Data Center™ dabei, Vorgaben für Wiederherstellungszeiten und -punkte (RTPO™) von weniger als 15 Minuten für ALLE Anwendungen und Daten zu realisieren.

Fuzz Testing Maturity Model

Fuzz testing is an industry-standard technique for locating unknown vulnerabilities in software. Fuzz testing is mandatory portion of many modern secure software development life cycles (SDLCs), such as those used at Adobe, Cisco Systems and Microsoft. This document provides a framework to assess the maturity of your processes, software, systems and devices. At the heart of this document is a vendor-agnostic maturity model for fuzz testing that maps metrics and procedures of effective fuzz testing to maturity levels. The maturity model is a lingua franca for talking about fuzzing, allowing different organizations to communicate effectively about fuzzing without being tied to specific tools.

The Fuzz Testing Maturity Model (FTMM) gives builders and buyers a set of standard levels for communicating about fuzz testing.

Synopsys solutions help deliver a more comprehensive security offering for the SDLC by adding black box testing capabilities, including the Codenomicon Defensics® tool for file and protocol fuzz testing, and the Codenomicon AppCheck™ tool for software composition analysis and vulnerability assessment.

What is Fuzzing: The Poet, the Courier, and The Oracle

Fuzzing is well established as an excellent technique for locating vulnerabilities in software. The basic premise is to deliver intentionally malformed input to target software and detect failure. A complete fuzzer has three components. A poet creates the malformed inputs or test cases. A courier delivers test cases to the target software. Finally, an oracle detects if a failure has occurred in the target. Fuzzing is a crucial tool in software vulnerability management, both for organizations that build software as well as organizations that use software.

Synopsys solutions help deliver a more comprehensive security offering for the SDLC by adding black box testing capabilities, including the Codenomicon Defensics® tool for file and protocol fuzz testing, and the Codenomicon AppCheck™ tool for software composition analysis and vulnerability assessment.

APIs in Mobile Apps: Delivering the Right Balance Between App Security and Usability

In order to take full advantage of the app opportunity, businesses must open up their traditional boundaries and connect valuable and sensitive data to the outside mobile world—it’s what today’s consumers expect.

From home, the office or on the road, people want the convenience of being able to login to their email, check their credit card balances, buy new clothes, book travel, share links with social networks, copy images into reports, upload files to the cloud and more. While businesses work feverishly to answer the demand, they need to be aware of the extreme security threat involved in enabling these mobile initiatives.

APIs Guide for Extending Your ESB/SOA Environment to Mobile, Cloud and IoT

Every enterprise has a wide variety of IT requirements where integration is needed. The rapid proliferation and adoption of cloud and mobile technologies has accentuated the financial impact of these needs. In response, the integration space has matured to include feature-rich stacks from enterprise integration vendors that provide full, multi-layer platforms in the form of an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) or SOA suite. But with these very broad capabilities comes complexity—multi-layer stacks can be difficult and costly to install, debug, administer and secure.

Driving Business Value from Flash-optimized Storage

Solid- state flash storage is one of today's most important "old yet new" IT technologies. It's old in the sense that some form of solid-state memory has been around since the 1970s. Flash technology arose in the 1980s, and modern flash drives within enterprise storage subsystems arrived on the market back in 2008, with various types of flash-card packaging being the latest turn of the technology crank.

Flash storage is new because the ongoing advances in performance, density, and other factors are still continuing to help flash take over an increasing number of performance-sensitive workloads from conventional spinning-desk arrays.
