Don’t ‘WannaCry’ No More: How to Shield Your IT Infrastructure from Ransomware

As enterprise access networks evolve with more mobile users, diverse devices and cloud-based applications, managing user performance on an end to end basis has become next to impossible. Recent advances in big data network analytics, combined with AI and cloud computing are being leveraged to tackle this growing problem.

Data centres are a critical component of the 21st century digital economy, and as their energy footprint grows, they will play a larger role in Europe's power system. In this webinar, executives from Eaton and Statkraft will discuss the outlook for data centres and the low-carbon energy transition, and the potential for data centres themselves to help integrate renewables on the grid. Experts from BloombergNEF will share the results of a recent study focusing on the future of data centres in the UK, Ireland, Norway, Netherlands and Germany.

This free 1-hour webinar from GigaOm Research brings together experts in automated cloud deployment at scale, featuring GigaOm analyst David Linthicum and a special guest from Packet, My Truong. The discussion will focus on why things are changing, and how you should approach cloud requirements, and the need for customized solutions. Moving to the cloud? We all are. However, as enterprises move existing and net new systems into the cloud, they are hitting a larger issue: they must adapt to the cloud, the cloud does not adapt to them.

Peter Schut is back in the sixth webinar in Axon’s Broadcast IP 101 series, this time examining timing, namely PTP, for professional essence-over-IP systems such as based on SMPTE ST 2110. Timing needs to be rock solid in studio settings where many signals are mixed together, so your PTP system needs to be too. SMPTE 2059-2 standardises the use of PTP timecode (IEEE 1588) in broadcast. It’s important to understand how master clocks and slave clocks work, plus there is talk of ‘transparent’ and ‘boundary’ clocks in switches. Getting the architecture right is key remembering that one important different between IP timekeeping and black and burst time keeping is that the communication is two-way.
