Data manipulation techniques for configuration management using Ansible

Business capabilities, like applications, data and services are moving from on-premise data centers to one or multiple public clouds. While public clouds offer the convenience of as-a-service consumption, on-demand functionality, elastic scale and pay-as-you-go pricing, the network on the other hand does not. Those who have tried the do-it-yourself approach to building a network for the cloud can attest to the challenges of cloud knowledge gaps, slow manual configurations, restrictive cloud limits, and costly hardware investments. Enterprises quickly realize that in order to succeed in the cloud, a new networking paradigm is needed.

Join WWT and Alkira for this interactive webinar to see how your network can take you to one or many clouds in record time. You will learn:

▸ Why enterprises are rapidly embracing multi-cloud
▸ What are the methodology and key elements of a modern multi-cloud network
▸ How to build a global multi-cloud network with enterprise-grade security and day-2 operations in minutes

Presenters:
Derrick Monahan, Technical Solutions Architect, WWT
David Klebanov, Head of Product Marketing, Alkira

In the 3rd and final part of this series, WWT and Attivo are joined by Dr Stan Barr, MITRE Sr. Principal Cyber Researcher and Jesse Whaley, Amtrak CISO to learn firsthand about the success these organizations have had employing the Attivo deception platform - detecting and mitigating threats earlier and more effectively than ever before.

Come Join NVIDIA and WWT as we discuss the ways Graphical Processing Units (GPUs) help Accelerate the ISR mission.
The ISR cycle and the information derived from its sources are foundational to every action taken in military and intelligence missions. No mission or operation is executed without deriving information from ISR sources. While the underlying data is largely the same, the exploitation of this data is currently executed as various workflows using incredibly manual and oftentimes sluggish techniques. Without the insertion of AI and automation, there is no way to scale up the manpower required to exploit the data to its full potential. If architected with GPUs, ISR missions could be greatly enhanced.
Join NVIDIA as we discuss how acceleration via GPUs, offers superior modeling capability offered by AI, and increased visualization performance. We will discuss GPUs and the:
1. Timeliness of Intelligence
2. Complete Exploitation
3. Smart Collection

In part 2 of this 3 part series WWT and Attivo will be joined by SixGen CTO Erik Hunstad. An expert in Red Teaming and Ethical Hacking, Mr. Hunstad will explain what happens when organizations employ deception, the severe challenges it creates for attackers, and hear why modern deception ensnares both sophisticated Red Teams and peer/near-peer adversaries, alike.
