How can you ensure that your cybersecurity capabilities defend your organization as best they can? Intruders break past, security controls falter, and defenses fail against even basic cyberattack techniques. What should be done? Instead of trying to close every vulnerability, meet every standard, or buy the “best” technology, security teams can change the game by focusing their defenses on known threats. During this webinar, we wil...

With the proliferation of data and where desk space is a premium, situational awareness is a major challenge for today’s government, military, and defense agencies. Given the driving need to view different data streams and access data at operational speeds, tools are needed to traverse separate classified levels at the same time. Join Vertiv and Dell as we discuss the new capabilities available through the introduction of the National In...

Defense organizations responsible for communications have a critical need to improve mobility. From deployed military to remote access for key personnel, the current state of the art for deployed communications systems requires hours of setup, and has security concerns that require high level approvals. Deployment of devices for classified communications depends on advanced technologies, such as dual VPN clients and has extensive configuration...

Active-duty military, reservists, and civilian employees stationed in 163 countries make the Dept. of Defense (DoD) the nation’s largest and most geographically dispersed employer. Its greatest asset is its people. This is why employee engagement is vital. They play a prominent role in recruiting and retaining both civilian employees and active-duty personnel. While it helps the DoD understand the warfighter's needs and wants, an Employe...

Looking back over the last year, federal agencies have been forced to make some significant changes with respect to technology and cybersecurity in order to sustain their mission in a secure way and shift to a workforce that is largely distributed. The pandemic has forced government to rethink many of the practices and approaches that worked previously, but it has also opened up the possibility of challenging the status quo - and not only reth...

Organizations are creating data at breakneck speeds - and their need to better understand, easily share, and regulate security access to that data is expanding even faster. Providing authorized, ubiquitous, and reliable access to proprietary, personal, and confidential data on a real-time, 24x7, and global basis is daunting - and doing it at scale while ensuring it can't be altered, destroyed, or ransomed is non-trivial. Doing this across mult...

When More Bandwidth isn’t enough; How NTS and Riverbed Can Get Your Apps Running Like New Again, Without Compromising Security. The delicate balance between performance and security goes back thousands of years. In the same way ancient armies had to balance aggressive warfare tactics with the ability to protect their flanks, the desire to squeeze more and more performance out of our technology infrastructure can lead to either real or pe...

Least privilege is intended to prevent “over-privileged access” by users, applications or services to help reduce the risk of exploitation without impacting productivity or involving the IT help desk. It may help to think of least privilege by its other name – least authority – as it provides only enough authority for an entity to complete the job at hand. The least privilege model can also help curtail costs and incre...

Cyber warfare is leveling the playing field for countries like Russia, Iran and North Korea. The SolarWinds backdoor showed that foreign adversaries can launch damaging attacks on traditionally more militarily adept nations. Organizations are finding themselves unprepared for these attacks as preventive solutions have failed to detect them. These threats have dwelled in some networks for weeks up to months before causing any damage. It's time...

The rapid pace of innovation in commercial IT technologies including cloud, big data, machine learning, IoT and ISR provide new opportunities for defense organizations to achieve and maintain C5ISR overmatch – as long as networks and computing power can securely deliver those benefits to the network edge. To achieve this, modern tactical networks must be deployable in reduced size, weight and power – while delivering ever more band...
