Regaining Control of Your Network

This just came across my desk, and I apologize for the last minute feel of it.  The folks at SonicWALL are holding a webinar on Thursday March 8 at 11am PST called "Lighting up Your Entire Network to Improve Performance & Productivity"

Following on my prior points about the Consumerization of IT, and Bring Your Own Device (BYOD), they're going to talk about how you can lose control over your network, and how to solve it. (With their products of course.)  This webinar is going to be hosted by Jan Sijp, Director of Product Marketing at SonicWALL (see?), and Mike Patterson, Industry Expert and CEO of Pixar.  They're going ot talk about the need to better understand what's going on under the hood of your network, and why flow-based network and application traffic analytics are good tools to gain insight.

You can register for this webinar here.  If you've got an hour this is a good topic.

Meraki is also doing their webinar about their new Security Appliances on Wed March 7 at 11am here, and on March 13th, they have a discussion on BYOD and how that'll affect you as well.

 

Who says you don't have enough to do? ;)

In Memoriam...

Sorry I haven't posted in a couple days.  Things have been quite hectic, and now with the passing of Steve Jobs, it's going to be interesting.  Steve Jobs made a lot of difference in this industry, and love or hate Apple, I believe we all should respect the innovation he brought in his lifetime.  The products he helped to create have touched all of our lives in one way or another...and we can't deny that.  Rest in Peace Mr. Jobs.

Here's a tribute from one of my favorite webcomics:
