By 2014, 60% of global companies are expected to pilot, deploy or expand their BYOD programs (RainKing). As BYOD has become a fixture in the workplace, with 72% of employees clamoring to have their personal devices work-enabled, the IT industry has watched as the familiar “perimeter" model has become untenable. Data is going to more places, and ending up on a wider variety of devices, than ever before. A new model for protecting data has become a necessity. Organizations have tried to do so in a multitude of ways: extending policies to cover mobile devices, monitoring usage, MDM solutions, and even NAC; all have been methods used to try and create the most stable environment for mobile technology. Let Integralis security expert Mike Gabriel explain how to best balance mobile productivity and security in this Security Talks installment.

Why Attend?

1.Discover how your peers are trying to protect mobile data.
2.See how the perimeter is being sculpted (or not) by the IT industry.
3.Find out what the future holds for BYOD in the workplace.

Over the years true MSPs have had to work diligently to differentiate themselves from companies that are at best, not true MSPs and at worst, are shady fly-by-night operators. This is where the Unified Certification Standard or (UCS) for Cloud & Managed Service Providers comes in.

The UCS was created by a team of dedicated MSPs to address the shortfalls of existing standards like ISO 27001, ITIL, CoBIT, SSAE 16, which were never intended for managed services organizations and offered little in the way of consumer protection.

CASE IN POINT: Many MSPs do NOT fail because of technical deficiencies, but due to financial risk. Because of this, customers have very little insight into the service provider's business practices and financial strengths and capabilities.

Attend this webcast and you will hear from real MSP executives on how the UCS certification and audit has helped them to:

- Win new business
- Provide needed transparency to customers
- Achieve compliance objectives
- Quickly develop trust with customers and prospects
- Provide documentation on how those MSPs deliver their services
- And much more...

Both Cloud and Managed Service Providers should attend this webcast and at least begin to follow the standards necessary to achieve managed services and cloud computing excellence.

Get a leg up on intermittent problems, watch this webinar to learn how OptiView XG v10 can inject test traffic to measure network performance, examine the traffic's impact on infrastructure, spot ongoing problems, expose intermittent issues, and map out exactly where problems are located.

When a business rolls out IT systems to run its operations, the basic foundation on which the system is built is the network that carries the traffic. To be able to solve problems in such a complex environment, it's vitally important to know what is happening on the network. Whether it's the behavior of the applications, behavior of the users or rogue elements that interfere with application delivery, knowing what is going on is half the battle of solving the problem.

This short video will discuss why having a well-designed workflow for identifying suspect traffic patterns and finding even the smallest volume of interesting data can make the difference in finding the culprit of pesky performance problems.

According to a recent survey by MobileIron, 81% of companies accommodate personal mobile devices in the workplace and more than 50% have formal BYOD (“Bring Your Own Device”) programs in place.

Register for this webinar and discover how to avoid missteps on your path to mobility.

Did you know that natural disasters, such as hurricane or flood only account for approximately 2% of all business disasters while hardware failures and human error account for more than 70%?

Let’s face it: as an IT professional, anything that interrupts normal business operations could form the basis of disaster for you. Just remember: whatever the cause of your interruption, how you prepare to respond that will decide the fate of your business.

So, are you prepared?

In this session, Senior Sales Engineer Chris Brightwell from Kaseya will discuss what a state of the art backup and disaster recovery solution looks like, how you should plan ahead to prevent or mitigate the risks of a disaster and explains the difference between good and bad backup and disaster recovery strategies based on real-life examples.
