The May deadline for GDPR is approaching fast – and companies that don’t have a solution will face stiff fines.

In this 30-minute webinar, GDPR-certified expert Paul Kendall will explain:
- Critical steps to achieve compliance
- What companies need to protect
- How to protect data that lives inside the EU and how to access that data outside the EU
- Why Forcepoint's GDPR solution is unique
- What different data breaches mean for GDPR fine activity and how to minimize your chances of losing data

The point of demarcation between a telco operator’s network and the end-user has been rife with innovation as operators have invested heavily in network functions virtualization (NFV), all in an effort to provide more agile delivery of virtual network functions (VNFs), such as routers, firewalls, and more.

On this NMG hosted panel will discuss how telcos continue to pursue innovation at the customer edge via the deployment of universal CPEs or edge based NFV infrastructures comprised of white box hardware and open source software. 

Low-latency IoT applications, such as autonomous vehicles, smart cities, and virtual reality are all building the use case for further extending compute infrastructure towards the network edge.

This NMG hosted panel will discuss the rationale for placing pools of compute infrastructure further out into the network and the applications that will require new cloud computing topologies, such as multi-access edge computing and fog computing.

With the emergence of new technologies such as augmented and virtual reality, autonomous cars, drones and IOT with smart cities, data is increasingly being produced at the user end of the network. These use cases demand real-time processing and communication between distributed endpoints, creating the need for efficient processing at the network edge.

On this NMG hosted panel will explore the change in value chain with Edge Compute and will bring different perspectives on this major industry transformation.

Enterprise collaboration apps and services continue their rapid growth with many firms adopting rich-media workspaces such as Cisco Spark, Jabber, and UC networks to drive productivity gains and foster greater teamwork.

Watch this webinar, “Collaboration in 2018: Key Trends Driving Enterprise Adoption”, as we discuss:

• The trends driving firms to adopt Cisco Spark, messaging workspaces, and UC
• How firms are proactively tackling compliance risks
• How Actiance helps to unleash new collaborative technologies while staying in control of information risks
