International Women's Day: 5 Ways To Create A More Equitable Workplace For Women
International Women's Day calls on people to imagine - and take steps toward - a gender-equal world. Actions for companies to take, starting today.
The rise of the #MeToo movement and the social and political upheavals caused by the Covid pandemic created more awareness about women's experiences and the structural and cultural barriers to women's equality.
Most importantly, companies in greater numbers are realizing that the onus is on them to break those barriers down.
This month's International Women's Day emphasizes that message with its #EmbraceEquity campaign, which calls on people to imagine - and take steps toward - a gender-equal world that's free of bias, stereotypes, and discrimination.

Cisco Drives Simplified Operations And Energy Efficiency With Intersight And UCS X-Series
Introduction of new Intersight licensing and a new energy efficiency bundle
One of the privileges of my role is my frequent interaction with customers around the world as I did recently at Cisco Live EMEA in Amsterdam. With each customer meeting, I continue to build my library of insights that materialize as patterns of behaviors, opportunities, and issues that matter the most to our customers. Here's what I've been noticing lately.
Customers want to simplify operations so that they can deploy infrastructure and workloads faster. Security is a top-of-mind issue, especially as the environments our customers are managing become more complex and distributed across different domains. Uptime remains a priority and customers are always looking to reduce or prevent downtime from hardware issues or infrastructure management tasks, such as firmware management.

Establish Device Trust With Citrix's Device Posture Service
In our mobile-first world, where hybrid work is the norm for many organizations, employees need access to corporate applications and resources from anywhere, on any device, on the go.
While traditional methods of authentication are still an effective way to check the integrity of end users, they are not enough to verify if the endpoints coming onto your network are trustworthy.
Without establishing device trust, you risk allowing an unsecure or compromised endpoint to connect to your network, which can increase the chances of a potential threat affecting critical corporate resources. Establishing device trust by checking the device's posture is critical to implementing zero-trust-based access.

Beyond The STIG: What Does 'Security Leadership' Really Mean?
In the world of product security and compliance, there's no shortage of leadership, at least on the surface. But 'leadership' doesn't necessarily mean the same thing across individuals, companies or industries. Practically, what traits should a leader in IT security exhibit? What should they be doing.or not doing? And why do these specific actions matter?
Just like the nature of leadership itself, there isn't an objective answer here. Red Hat (and I personally) have been deeply involved with software and systems security for decades, which puts us in a good position to explain what security leadership means in our eyes. Unsurprisingly, given the open source nature of Red Hat, I feel that you can't be confident in a claim of security leadership without participation as a starting point.

Accelerate Your Network Across The Finish Line
Don't step up to the starting line unprepared. Develop winning network solutions with Dell Open Telecom Ecosystem Lab Validation Services.
Anyone who has ever watched a track and field meet knows the relay races at the end of the meet are often the culmination of a long day and a clear display of speed, performance and athletic ability. Much the same, organizations face a sprint to bring the best, most innovative solutions to market to showcase their latest abilities and ultimately achieve business objectives.
However, as an avid runner and former college sprinter, I'm acutely aware that championship relay teams aren't built overnight. The right runners and natural ability may already exist on the team, but selecting the right combination of runners, determining the most effective order and ensuring the team consistently hits its times and performs well together takes practice.

Building The Open RAN Ecosystem
Being open is a good thing. Open for business. Open to new ideas. Open about what your products can and can't do. We want to work with people who are open because it often leads to new discoveries and more fruitful partnerships.
We're committed to being open at Dell Technologies, and nowhere is that more evident than in the Open RAN domain. We believe Open RAN has the potential to revitalize the radio access network (RAN) with new solutions, new revenue opportunities and new cost efficiencies. And we're making that a reality with new products developed by Dell Technologies and our vast ecosystem of RAN partners. This ecosystem will help drive down RAN costs, deliver higher performance and allow communication service providers (CSPs) to build best-of-breed systems that leverage legacy investments without being locked into any single vendor's technology.

It's Time To Create More Opportunities For Women In Cybersecurity
Undoubtedly, our industry needs to create more initiatives to attract a more diverse group of professionals, including women, to STEM-focused careers like cybersecurity.
While women make up nearly 50% of the world's population, they only account for an estimated 24% of the cybersecurity workforce. At the same time, the cybersecurity skills gap remains dangerously high, and the volume of cyberattacks impacting organizations of all shapes and sizes is growing every day.
As we celebrate International Women's Month this March, we're reminded that there's much more that can and should be done to create opportunities for women to grow or jump-start a career in cybersecurity.

Just Because It's Old Doesn't Mean You Throw It Away (Including Malware!)
Art, automobiles, and wine are often associated with things that appreciate in value as they age. Malware isn't usually thought of this way, as most threat actors strive to keep their tools as current as possible with new lures and exploitation techniques.
However, every once in a while, a campaign appears that turns this paradigm on its head. FortiGuard Labs came across one such recent campaign using the MyDoom worm.
MyDoom (also known as Novarg and Mimail) was first discovered back in 2004. And while it has seen some updates and modifications since its introduction, it is an anachronism in the malware world that continues to operate well beyond expectations.
