| |  | Downtime is a sure business-killer. Lost revenues and hardware replacement are two of the biggest concerns for companies with branch offices or remote workers. Making sure each office is up-to-date on security software is a time-consuming task that IT managers often dread. The problem is that some offices will not install patches and updates as soon as they get them, and some will never install them. This case study gives you insight into a 3-phase plan for rolling out security patches and anti-virus definitions that does not rely on installation at the remote site. | |  | | |  | The enterprise is being overtaken by a race to mobility. Users are demanding anytime, anywhere computing capability, and anytime, anywhere access to corporate applications as well. However, not all mobile deployments are driven by end users. Forward thinking enterprises are also adopting mobility to drive more effective and efficient operations, particularly in field force operations (e.g., field service, delivery, logistics, field sales, health care delivery). In choosing a mobile management suite, enterprises should be aware of some key points to evaluate. | | | | | |  | Data center automation is a growing opportunity for IT organizations to automate tasks that cross both within and across "IT silos." The opportunity to standardize on data center automation has never been greater: IT organizations can deliver fast, measurable results that improve IT service availability, improve change management, and align and deliver more succinctly with business objectives. This study analyzes the idea of data center automation, and it looks across the impact that automation has on IT service delivery, cost reduction, and business impact. | | | | | |  | These days, placing greater emphasis on enhancing application performance and security is indeed appropriate. Early-generation server loadbalancers are tried and true solutions for improving the availability and scalability of an organization's application infrastructure. Nonetheless, enterprises that persist in using such products run the risk of exposing themselves and their customers to increasingly poor application performance and a seemingly endless stream of application-layer security threats. To meet the demands of today's -- and tomorrow's -- networks, there are 8 key points you need to consider. | | | | | |  | Whether you are a wholesale distributor of furniture, machinery, chemicals, or food and beverages, your success depends on how quickly you adapt to demands from customers and suppliers. You must constantly differentiate your services from the competition while improving operating efficiencies and controlling costs. To do this, you need access to real-time information about the availability, level, and delivery of your inventory. You also need to offer your customers value-added services, such as easy online inquiries and transactions. | | | | | |  | The impact of customer confidence may seem obvious. It's an age-old business equation. Banks spend a lot of time and money acquiring customers, so retaining them is crucial. And, of course, happy customers not only stick around longer, but they also tend to buy more. So it all comes down to customer satisfaction; and a positive, safe experience goes a long way toward that end. The bottom line: Security is a top priority and critical business issue for financial services organizations; but when it comes to customer confidence, there is definitely room for improvement. | | | |
