Arista Networks today announced security capabilities focused on private, hybrid and public cloud networking. Based on Arista’s cloud-grade EOS and CloudVision state-of-the-art software, Arista’s approach redefines silo security into holistic security designed for a multi-cloud environment. Key integration includes VMware NSX Data Center and Zscaler for holistic security.

The new security expansion delivers three attributes: extended network segmentation, improved compliance through cognitive controls and new platforms with integrated encryption for wide-area interconnect. These provide customers secure solutions, to reduce operational costs and mitigate threats in the emerging cloud era.

"The challenge to secure an enterprise network is getting more complicated and expensive every day. Siloed security solutions promise to make things easier but actually, have the opposite effect. Security needs to be simplified to be truly useful. Arista’s network segmentation approach, to simplify security across the security islands, will help to address these challenges," said Golan Ben-Oni, Global Chief Information Officer, IDT Corporation.

HiveIO, a company that transforms commodity data center equipment into a software-defined virtualization solution, today announced version 7.0 of Hive Fabric, the industry’s first zero-layer, hardware- and vendor-agnostic solution that provides high-performing, scalable technology to remove complexity from the data center. The artificial intelligence (AI) ready hyperconverged fabric (HCF) solution delivers next-generation data center management technology in a simple-to-deploy and easy-to-operate platform.

Current IT architecture requires highly skilled specialists with a range of certifications to manage the data center. Offering all the components of a hyperconverged solution, Hive Fabric 7.0 satisfies the performance, scale, and security that enterprises demand while eliminating confusing licensing and multi-vendor integration and management that come with traditional hyperconverged infrastructure.

WHEN? Thu, Aug 30, 2018 10:00 AM – 10:30 AM CDT

Some of the features you’ll get a sneak peak at include:
 

• One centralized web-based management console
• Improved productivity tools such as administrative levels
• Expanded Cloud printing tools
• 100% redundancy
• Serverless Printing

Business continuity, especially across data centers in nearby locations often depends on complicated scripts, manual intervention and numerous checklists. Those error-prone processes are exponentially more difficult when the data storage equipment differs between sites.

Such difficulties force many organizations to settle for partial disaster recovery measures, conceding data loss and hours of downtime during occasional facility outages.

WHEN? Aug. 22, 2018 @ 2pm ET

In this webinar and live demo, you’ll learn about:

• Software-defined storage services capable of continuously mirroring data in real-time between unlike storage devices.
• Non-disruptive failover between stretched cluster requiring zero touch
• Rapid restoration of normal conditions when the facilities come back up

 

CloudPassage today announced the general availability of Halo Cloud Secure, which offers comprehensive and continuous protection of public cloud infrastructure, delivering security and DevOps teams a "single pane of glass" view of security and compliance across all of their cloud service provider (CSP) accounts.

Organizations face an increase in vulnerabilities as security teams struggle to maintain effective, real-time visibility into public cloud infrastructure. Maintaining security visibility of dynamic computing environments can be difficult due to decentralization of the IT department, the expanding public cloud infrastructure attack surface and cloud service misconfiguration. According to The 2018 Cloud Security Report, 62 percent of cybersecurity professionals see infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS) misconfigurations as the biggest threat to their public clouds environments. Additionally, 43 percent of cloud security professionals report lack of visibility into infrastructure security as the biggest operational challenge.

SolarWinds MSP, a global leader in delivering comprehensive, scalable IT service management solutions to IT solution providers and managed service providers (MSPs), announced it has been named a leader in the 2018 G2 Crowd Grid Report.
