5 Considerations when Evaluating a File Sync and Share Solution

• Maximizing data availability while controlling costs, the size of backup windows, and the network loads.
• Providing fastest recovery possible for individual emails, files, or full VMs following an outage.
• Protecting data in primary data centers as well as in remote offices, workgroups, and other locations.
Users have many choices for backup and disaster recovery storage, including deduplication appliances, standard block or NAS storage for backup, the cloud for off-site DR protection, and, of course, most users continue to use tape for long termretention, compliance, and archiving.
How does your cyber security program compare to other companies? Where do your security people, processes, and technology place you among peer organizations? And more important, what should be your next steps to improve your program?
Based on their research, Enterprise Strategy Group has developed a cyber security maturity model that classifies organizations as basic, progressing, or advanced. Read this report to learn:
• The security philosophy exhibited by basic, progressing, and advanced organizations
• How organizations at each level of maturity apply people and technology
• The characteristics of security processes found at each maturity level
• The recommended advancement steps for organizations at each level
Your ability to detect and stop cyber attacks depends on the effectiveness of your security operations team. How does yours stack up to the best? And what should you do to improve?
HPE Security Intelligence and Operations Consulting has assessed the capabilities of 87 security operations centers worldwide. This updated 2015 report bring you the latest information. Read it to learn:
• The latest trends in security defenses and operations
• The attributes of the most effective organizations
• The point at which enhanced process maturity actually degrades effectiveness
• How companies featured in case studies have improved—or degraded—their capabilities
Home security and remote monitoring systems are one of the immediate applications for the Internet of Things (IoT). They can alert you to fires and intrusions, provide a reassuring view inside your home, and let you control your home systems remotely. But could they—and other IoT applications—open your home to hackers?
A new study by Hewlett Packard Enterprise Security, "Internet of Things Security Study: Home Security Systems Report," uses HPE Fortify on Demand to explore the cyber security features of 10 leading systems. You need to understand the results if you are considering a home security system—or any of the IoT applications coming down the pike. Read the report to learn the glaring security problems found in almost all systems tested.
Agile development organizations often see application security considerations as impediments to the rapid release cycles they strive for. But releasing software with vulnerabilities opens the door to hackers and puts the entire business at risk. How do you develop an application security program that protects the business without impacting time to market?
This white paper explores the tension between development and security teams and proposes an approach to building security into the software development lifecycle. Read it to learn:
• The five elements needed to build security into the development process
• How to use automated security scanning to make application security more reliable and efficient
• How HP Fortify can help you get started quickly
A new survey from IDG Research Services tells the story: most organizations lack confidence in the ability of their security defenses to keep them safe. In fact, more than half said 100% security is a pipe dream. This summary by Network World lays out the facts but also presents an approach to detect malware and prevent it from spreading throughout the network.
Read the summary to learn:
• How respondents view their security measures
• Why a layered approach to security is now necessary
• How HP TippingPoint Advanced Threat Appliance "detonates" suspicious files or malware in a safe sandbox environment to stop it before it can spread
In 2014 detected cyber security incidents rose sharply to 42.8 million, and the financial impact of cyber crime increased by 34 percent. An effective cyber security program has never been more important. And an effective program must not only attempt to detect and block incoming threats, it must detect and neutralize successful attacks before the damage is done.
This white paper explains why advanced threat detection is now a necessary part of any cyber security program. Read it to learn:
• Why early detection is key
• The elements of an effective advanced threat detection solution
• How HP TippingPoint Advanced Threat Appliance detects threats and works with TippingPoint Next-Generation IPS and Next-Generation Firewalls to shut down attacks.
We're making it easy for hackers. New technologies like mobile, Big Data, and the Internet of Things expand the attack surface and bring new technologies they can exploit. In addition, weaknesses in code that is decades old and common problems like server misconfiguration, weak passwords, and poor coding practices open doors that should have been closed long ago. To protect your business, you need an in-depth understanding of the evolving threat landscape and how hackers exploit it to penetrate defenses and steal data.
The HP Cyber Risk Report 2015 brings you the information you need. This comprehensive report culminates a year-long effort by one of the most capable and respected security research organizations in the world. It's packed with more than 70 pages of detail including:
• The common, well-known problems that continue to plague cyber security
• Security trends in Windows, Linux, and mobile OSs
• Why security pros were unprepared for Heartbleed and similar events
• Why multi-layer defenses are now required
