Optimisation relies on understanding
15 year anniversary of “Optimising Applications on Cisco Networks”
“In print for 15 years, my book “Optimising Applications on Cisco Networks” is perhaps even more relevant today than in 2004″, says Mike Hicks, Director of Product Development, Ikara.
Today’s hybrid multi-cloud architectures unite applications, systems, networks, and platforms into an operations environment that delivers exceptional customer experiences. That’s if you can build and maintain them.
Security compliance trends and costs
Security and data breach prevention, detection, and response becoming an enterprise-wide responsibility
The cost of cybercrime to Australian business grew 26% between 2017/2018. An increase that the Ponemon Institute explains is an indication that not only the cost of data security breaches is increasing, but time-to-resolution (a key factor in cost control) is also on the rise.
Direct losses may look small, compared to the cost of remedies and penalties. Regulators are demanding more and seem increasingly willing to penalise data breaches that are the result of negligence. Gartner advises the enterprise to implement a data security governance framework to prioritise data security investments.
