Automotive is a highly regulated industry going through important changes towards software-defined vehicles (SDVs). Innovation is vital to meeting the new challenges and demands of the automotive industry as it evolves around software-defined vehicles – but this innovation cannot come at the expense of vehicle safety and cybersecurity. 

Canonical’s teams of support engineers, software developers and customer success professionals, have allowed us unique insights into the challenges that modern automotive leaders face. Join our upcoming webinar to learn from our experiences in supporting and enabling automotive software security and innovation.

Organisations are increasingly turning towards open source to empower developers with a wider set of tools, improve efficiency and lower costs. That’s why Ubuntu is the Linux operating system of choice for experienced developers and enterprise environments.

However, including Linux within a Windows-centric paradigm can raise concerns within IT and security management around level of support, internal skills, security and fleet management tooling.

Ubuntu Pro Desktop, a comprehensive subscription, targets these concerns directly. It enables developers to work on the operating system they prefer whilst allowing IT admins to use the same familiar processes that facilitate integration and compliance with the rest of their organisation.

In this webinar we will cover:

– Common challenges for secure Linux adoption
– How to onboard Ubuntu Desktop in your organisation, from hardware procurement and provisioning to device identity and security management.

Adopting Linux securely: Why and how to bring in Ubuntu Desktop to your Windows-centric Enterprise

The Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) is a European Union legislation that will enter into force in 2027. Its overall goal is to make devices safer by implementing more rigorous cybersecurity, documentation, and vulnerability reporting requirements for the IT industry. The CRA is especially relevant for device manufacturers, who will need to ensure devices are secure throughout the product lifecycle. 

Join us for a 45 minute webinar, where Joao Pezzato Hellmeister and Jean-Charles Verdié will share insights on how this regulation will impact device manufacturers and how Canonical’s Ubuntu Pro for Devices can help you ensure compliance. 

We will zoom into:
- An overview of the vulnerability management obligations mandated by the CRA and what they mean for your software stack
- Implications for device management
- How a hardened attack surface can help you minimise threats and simplify compliance

Understand how the Cyber Resilience Act will impact device manufacturers

The Cyber Resilience Act is an upcoming European Union legislation that aims to implement more rigorous cybersecurity commitments, documentation, and vulnerability reporting requirements for the IT industry. The legislation would apply to developers, distributors, manufacturers and retailers of hardware, devices, software, applications, and other “products with digitally connected elements” sold within the EU. The requirements you need to meet depend on the CRA classification of products. 

Although the regulation does not enter into force until 2027, organisations need to start preparing now. Join us for a 30-minute webinar to understand how this new regulatory framework will impact the compliance landscape, and what it could mean for you. We will delve into the CRA’s 4 key obligations:

1. Risk Assessment
2. Documentation
3. Conformity assessment
4. Vulnerability reporting

We will also provide recommended actions so you can implement a roadmap for compliance in your organisation.

What is the Cyber Resilience Act?

In this webinar, Henry Coggill will showcase USG (the Ubuntu Security Guide) and demonstrate how it can automate compliance requirements. We will discuss the hardening profiles that are available, including DISA-STIG and CIS benchmarks, then cover setting up and configuring the tool and demonstrate the configuration options that you can make for maximum security and coverage of the STIG rules.

USG is available with an Ubuntu Pro subscription, and we will show you what extra features and capabilities that are included with Pro, such as extended security vulnerability patching and FIPS-140 certified crypto modules.

Data lake is a very large scale data processing paradigm that disrupts the conventional data warehousing model. Data warehouses require all data to be structured and stored in a relational database, which can be inflexible and may require significant upfront data processing using extract-transform-load (ETL) technologies.

Data lakes can offer greater flexibility whilst retaining the benefits and efficiency of centralised data governance. With Canonical OpenStack private cloud platform, Kubernetes and Charmed Spark solutions, your data lake architecture can also benefit from extended flexibility and scalability whilst remaining cost effective to operate.

Join this webinar to learn more about the benefits of the data lake architecture, and how you can efficiently adopt this technology at scale using modern private cloud technology.

Confidential computing is a revolutionary technology that disrupts the conventional threat model of public clouds. In the past, vulnerabilities within the extensive codebase of the cloud’s privileged system software, including the operating system and hypervisor, could pose a constant risk to the confidentiality and integrity of code and data in operation. Likewise, unauthorized access by a cloud administrator could compromise the security of your virtual machine (VM). 

To protect your data and code against such threats on Google Cloud, Ubuntu Confidential VMs (CVMs) offer enhanced security for your workloads by utilizing hardware-protected Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs). To achieve such strong security guarantees, Ubuntu Confidential VMs build on Intel’s innovations at the silicon level, and the foundation laid by Intel(R) Trust Domain Extensions (Intel(R) TDX), now available through Google Cloud.  Ubuntu also offers further primitives to further secure your CVMs at rest, and offer a strong remote attestation.

Come join this webinar to learn about the great engineering that goes into making Ubuntu confidential VMs with Intel TDX on Google Cloud, and how you use them to implement a zero trust strategy for your security-sensitive application.

Across the world, the application of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning (AI/ML) to business challenges is a hot topic. But, what does it mean for storage systems, and how can open source storage answer those needs? Without data, and speedy access to it, AI solutions might not deliver the results as quickly as expected, delaying insights and innovation. Canonical Ceph is a great example of a highly scalable open source storage solution that can be used to back modern AI/ML workflows and unlock the full potential of your AI ecosystem.
In this webinar we will explore typical use cases for external storage for AI systems, the workflows, the impact AI has on storage systems, and also the impact that storage systems can have on your AI jobs.
