Extending cloud connectivity to the enterprise market: An essential guide May 5 2021 2:00 pm UTC 60 mins
Ievgen Martsin, Product Manager, BICSISPs and other telecom service providers face significant challenges in extending their cloud connectivity to the enterprise market. Not only in connecting customers to their cloud services but ensuring that connection is of high-quality and in a cost-effective framework.
While there are numerous strategies for local service providers to achieve these connections, they either fail to compete with larger global players (due to different cost structures), or do not offer the level of control necessary to guarantee SLAs to enterprise customers.
This webinar will outline the common pitfalls, challenges and best strategies for local providers in supplying cloud connectivity to enterprises, and the ways in which working with the right global connectivity provider can help overcome them. In particular, it will assess the viability of DIY options (where local telcos act as a direct cloud service provider) compared with other strategies, such as working with a global connectivity provider.
Key takeaways by attending this free webinar:
1. Best practice for local providers looking to navigate the challenges of deploying their own cloud connectivity (e.g. cost, time to market, security and performance issues, competition from global players)
2. The types of connectivity offered by global service enablers (DC, IXP, NSP) and the benefits/ considerations of each
3. How local ISPs and telcos can compete with global service providers and:
a. Expedite set up with quick access to all regions
b. Reduce spend with pay as you grow pricing models
c. Avoid oversubscription or limitation due to CSP misalignment -

DDoS attacks: Insights and best practices with Orange and NETSCOUT Recorded: Apr 8 2021 60 mins
Orange in partnership with Capacity MediaDistributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks have intensified in volume and sophistication amid the digital shift brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic.
Over 10 million DDoS attacks have thrived in an environment when organisations have struggled to fully support their remote workforce and businesses have relied so heavily on online service to survive. It has become a significant cybersecurity threat and nuisance today as cyber-criminals have sought to exploit the growth of internet use and working from home.
As the pandemic continues to present challenges to businesses and societies around the world, it is imperative that we protect the critical infrastructure that is keeping the world connected and enabling the digital world.
Orange and Netscout have partnered to bring you this webinar to provide you with insights and best practices in the fight against cyber criminality and DDoS attacks.
During this webinar, experts will explain:
‣ What DDoS attacks are and how they have evolved over the last few years;
‣ What the impacts of DDoS attacks are for operators and their customers; and
‣ How Orange’s DDoS Protection, anti-fraud and cybersecurity solutions mitigate threats.

Panel: How we all can mitigate against fraud within the RBM ecosystem Recorded: Mar 12 2021 41 mins
Capacity Europe 2020Rich Business Messaging (RBM)
creates exciting new ways for
enterprises to interact with customers
with enhanced consumer engagement
features. These include read receipts,
group chat, video, image sharing
and purchase options. Building in
sender verification and authentication
capabilities that help establish
consumer trust and make it a valuable
customer-engagement platform
for businesses would provide the
foundations for the RBM ecosystem –
from A2P messaging and AI providers,
enterprises, and marketers – to thrive
in. We ask what the key steps are
needed to take in ensuring consumers
can engage with enterprises with an
ultimate level of trust. -

Best practices to build and manage 3M+ remote access users Recorded: Feb 17 2021 47 mins
Liam Cooney, Head of Sales Engineering, Open SystemsHow people work may never be the same. 2020 saw millions of people leave their cubicles, offices, and sites. They became mobile and worked from their homes, coffee shops, parks, and any other point on the planet.
IT leaders had a new challenge. Whether users were working at home or in the office, they needed the same work experience – including performance, access to applications, and cybersecurity.
During and after the pandemic, 'working from home' – whether full time or a few days each week – has and will become the new normal for many organizations and millions of employees. Users need the same access, performance, and security regardless of where and when they work.
Join this webinar and explore how to provide users with scalable remote access and reliable performance while ensuring complete cybersecurity for any organization – including one that manages over 3 million remote users for companies across the globe. -
