When the agile movement first saw broad adoption, there was tremendous success at the team level. It didn't take long for large organizations to run into challenges seeing that same type of success in larger, more complex initiatives. This presentation is an introduction to the expanded principles of agility intended to harness the effectiveness of agile teams and bring better organizational alignment to larger efforts built upon the effectiveness of highly agile teams.

As organizations look to do more with fewer resources and better leverage scarce knowledge across their entire organization, they have found that the traditional hierarchical management structure no longer meets the needs of the business. Enterprises have turned to the matrix organizational structure for increased flow of information across departments and greater flexibility and responsiveness.

To understand the difference between Ethernet II and 802.3, you first must know how Ethernet works. While Ethernet cables transmit data, their role is relatively simple compared to that of the Ethernet card — also referred to as an adapter. It’s within the function of this card that you find the differences between Ethernet II and 802.3.

VMware software and products are popular among enterprises. However, they are also highly proprietary. So, unless you have had experience with VMware products, any experience with other software can only serve as a foundation for using vSphere and other software that VMware offers.

Virtualization is a constantly evolving process, with new platforms introducing tools every day that are designed to make the process of moving to the cloud simpler.

Value stream mapping can be a dramatically transformational event – expanding empathy across teams, sharing points of view, and solving gaps in understanding which may be robbing everyone of productivity. This webinar will quickly equip attendees with a high-level understanding of value stream mapping and will teach practical tips on how to run a value stream mapping exercise within their teams and organizations.

While the recent trend towards cloud computing might make it seem like virtualization is new, it has existed in some form for many decades.

Most of us have heard of "oversharing" in the social sense (i.e. giving out too many details of your personal life), but how about "under sharing" in the Windows Server realm? What does that even mean? Well, I sort of just made that up, but it does actually make some sense when you think about it in terms of creating a Windows Share that doesn’t provide enough permissions.

As the sophistication, stealth, and frequency of cybersecurity threats continue to increase, the complexity of attacks means every organization needs security expertise before, during, and after an attack. For this reason, the demand for cybersecurity operations (CyberOps) personnel keeps going up.

There are many challenges that come to the forefront as you begin the process of virtualizing the data center and moving away from the current physical network setup.

Using Palo Alto Networks, PAN-OS, enterprises can build an IT Security Platform capable of delivering protection against all stages of the Cyber-Attack Lifecycle. From Reconnaissance to Act on Objective, the PAN-OS Single-Pass Parallel Processing (SP3) engine combines efficient throughput with maximum data protection. This live webinar will describe how the SP3 Architecture can increase network traffic visibility and enable you to control your environment.

The Internet is not automatically a secure or safe place to be. We need to re-evaluate what it means to be secure in our online activities. 

Mobile payment applications or systems have become commonplace with the expansive growth and popularity of smartphones and other mobile devices.

Protecting your IT assets from threats is an essential part of business and personal digital activities. VPNs and firewalls are two commonly used security tools to help reduce risk while maintaining usability. When used in concert, IT communications are filtered and encrypted.

According to our IT Skills and Salary Report, 85% of professionals possess at least one certification. That’s a ton of competition in the industry. And the general consensus is the more certifications, the better. So why are so many IT pros and decision-makers putting such an emphasis on certifications? Why is so much investment devoted to training?

As cloud platforms provide ever greater infrastructure capability, automating and managing infrastructure is becoming critical to our strategy and process. Tooling environments are also heavily impacted. Tools like Terraform, configuration automation tools (Chef, Ansible, etc.) and cloud-native infrastructure solutions completely change cost models and workflows. This presentation is an introduction to infrastructure automation in the cloud, a few popular automation tools, and how to tie automation to larger cloud (and business) strategy.
