Agenda
• Introduction
• Digital Realities
• New Service Architectures
• Pragmatic Strategies and Solutions
• Accenture and Micro Focus Overview

Working in IT, you get used to the benefits of ITIL-based processes. When you contact the support service, you receive the request ID and can track it while the service desk solves your problem.

However, the main business, which should be even more interested in the client than IT, often does not understand this process. Fortunately, enterprise service management (ESM) practices can help these organizations.

During our upcoming workshop, we will define enterprise service management (ESM), share examples, and discuss how to implement this approach using modern ITSM tools:

•ESM principles overview and real examples—15 min.
•Use-cases demo—60 min.
•Q&A session—15 min.

More and more companies have started implementing new service management principles thanks to automation tools that enable ESM. Join our webinar to learn more or share your ESM practices.

Micro Focus Data Protector is the first data back-up solution in the industry.

In a globalized digital world, purely national thinking is no longer enough. The flow of data across national borders has become a matter of course and happens in seconds. When the EU-US Privacy Shield was put into effect in 2016, data exchange with the US was placed in a stable state. Now, however, the European Court of Justice (ECJ) has overturned the agreement, with immediate effect.

This means that data exchange with the US is not permitted in many cases, so the time has come for international companies to act. After all, businesses worldwide depend on a functioning international data exchange and, thus, corresponding data protection. How can you:
•Continue to share data with business partners in the US while reducing regulatory risks?
•Protect your sensitive data and at the same time not restrict your business partners in their work?
•Use cloud platforms and CRM systems from US companies more securely?

The answer? Encryption!

Join this exciting webinar with data privacy experts to learn how your organization can safely navigate international data exchange. We’ll walk you through practical, relevant use cases to discover answers and the actions you can take:
•What are the immediate and long-term consequences of the ECJ ruling
•What the data protection authorities require, which data you should protect, and how
•How encryption can help you meet legal requirements
•How encryption must look to meet your business needs

We look forward to having you join us.

This webinar will provide valuable insights into how organizations like yours can deliver access to the mainframe while meeting security, privacy, regulatory, and other demands that modern security frameworks mandate.

When it comes to delivering access to mainframe applications, organizations are faced with new and ever-evolving challenges. These challenges include access control (authentication and authorization), data privacy, endpoint management, and regulatory compliance audits.

Even though organizations address these challenges at the enterprise level, the mainframe is often forgotten. This happens because:

(1) Mainframe systems are viewed as secure because they are isolated from the public environment
(2) Security organizations do not often know how to extend enterprise security controls to the mainframe

Hard to believe it’s October, right?

But as we all know, 2020 has been a very strange year. It feels like the world has been on pause since March due to the COVID-19 pandemic shutting down much of society. One minute it was the end of February and the next minute we were all in full lockdown and our family members and pets became our closest co-worker.

Even with all this craziness and uncertainty during the last six months, the one thing we can count on for October is National Cybersecurity Awareness Month (NCSAM). An annual campaign started in the US more than 15 years ago to raise awareness about cybersecurity and to ensure that every person has the necessary resources to stay safer and more secure online. This campaign has expanded over time to incorporate Africa and the rest of the World.

No matter the location or name, this is something the security team at Micro Focus takes very seriously. So seriously, that for the second year in a row we are NCSAM champions, to help promote a safer, more secure and more trusted Internet and help keeps organisations, like yours, out of the headlines for data breaches.

As a result in association with one of our strategic SMME Channel Partners we bring you ‘Be Cyber Aware in the era of Covid-19 and Remote Working’ webinar, during which we will cover the key challenges facing many organisations when it comes to your cyber security.

AGENDA:
1.Do you know who has access to your environment?
2.Are your end user devices secure?
3.Have you classified your organizational data?
4.And more will be covered during this informative and hands-on 60min webinar.
