How Trustworthy Is Your Certificate Authority?

The choices available for picking out a certificate authority to issue SSL certificates can seem dizzying for the typical web operations team. With so many different CAs operating with essentially the exact same underlying cryptographic technology, it might well seem like these certs are a commodity item best purchased based on price point alone.

Top 5 SSL Attack Vectors

It’s often claimed that SSL/TLS vulnerabilities represent the web’s weakest security link. This TechTarget paper examines the highest profile attack vectors, the exposures they cause, and the resulting fallout associated with each. Download now and discover why:

  • The only secure, standard hash algorithm is SHA-2
  • Root certificates must be heavily defended by the CA
  • The security of systems storing and using private SSL/TLS keys must also be tightly guarded

EMA Radar™ for Workload Automation (WLA)

Hybrid cloud, DevOps, big data and digitalization are driving a need for more sophisticated workload automation, which underpins the consistent delivery of traditional and cutting edge workloads. Modern workloads require more sophistication; data is collected from a greater variety of sources, and the success or failure of job streams can be directly exposed to both business users and customers. Significant enhancements in workload automation (WLA) tools have been added in recent years to address these trends. This Enterprise Management Associates (EMA) RADAR report identifies the thirteen leading WLA platforms and empirically compares and grades them against a broad range of measurements to determine overall product strengths and cost efficiencies.
