The holiday season is here and it’s time for everyone’s favorite guessing game: predictions for next year. It’s an interesting one this year because there are a lot of dynamics to consider, and trying to dial in on just a few is a slight to many other topics. Geopolitics, regional economic recessions — these are covered in a wide variety of industry publications, and I’ll yield the floor to them this year.
On a retail floor, there's a shopper with a question about product availability. And there’s a store associate with the opportunity to answer, creating a sale and building loyalty. In a distribution center, a picker carefully lifts a fragile item out of a bin and places it in a tote. They confirm the item visually through an image presented in the picker’s application workflow. The order will be fulfilled accurately.
How large is your company’s IT infrastructure? How many devices and assets are attached to it? As large as it was yesterday, it’s probably larger today — and will be still larger tomorrow. This is compelling organizations to embrace device and asset monitoring under a “single pane of glass,” meaning via a unified, “single console” view of their entire network to enable unified endpoint management (UEM).
When it comes to mobile device management versus modern device management, they may sound similar, but there’s a significant degree of difference between them. The explosive growth in these devices within enterprises makes it crucial for organizations to choose the right platform for overseeing them.
GitHub is one of the most popular version control systems used today, allowing developers to collaborate on projects and quickly deploy their code. However, deploying code through GitHub can also be time-consuming and risky if not done properly. In this blog, we’ll cover how IT teams can reach across the aisle to your colleagues in development to accelerate and protect their GitHub deployment by integrating with the service management software you already use.
While remote work and hybrid work have always been a thing, they've recently become more popular, and that’s created new challenges for network security. Some companies embrace remote work and/or hybrid work; some try to limit or reverse the trends. For some internal teams, remote work is easily achieved and often preferred. In other cases, in more hands-on and collaborative efforts, being physically onsite can be important.
Microsoft's release of Windows 10 modernized how IT teams approach device management. Windows 10 is not a strict evolution of Windows 7 and 8. It’s an evolution of Windows Phone 8 and 10, where an MDM API was available to manage all aspects of a device, such as DLP, restrictions, software distribution and so on.
Here we are, back again to another calendar fourth quarter and maybe the same for your business. But whether your fiscal calendar lines up or not, it is that most wonderful time of year we all know as peak season. Each year's a little different, especially lately. But rather than re-hash what we have all lived through leading up to this season, it feels right to have a look at what operations — maybe yours included, are doing to make peak season 2023 a success.
Our glossary page on attack surfaces defined the terms associated with the concept. This post provides information that'll help your organization identify its attack surface. Much like your lawn after a good rain, your attack surface will grow rapidly if left unchecked. Along with increases in attack surface size comes an increase in cybersecurity risk. That risk can’t be eliminated as attack surfaces are always evolving, but it must be carefully managed.
