Can Sustainability & Green Tech Help You Achieve Network Resilience? Of Course!
Achieving network resilience is not just a matter of having the latest ransomware software or firewall technology. Building sustainability, environmental management and green technology into a network infrastructure can help ensure its survival and resilience. This session will examine strategies and technologies that not only bolster your network’s green attributes but also enhance its resilience. You’ll also be better prepared for network audits that examine the use of green technology.

Itential ServiceNow App: Network & Infrastructure Automation in ServiceNow Flow
IT organizations spend a significant amount of effort keeping up with changing application and infrastructure requirements, which often requires changes to network infrastructure such as firewall rule access, load balancer provisioning, etc. This process can take longer than anticipated due to manual processes required to coordinate between app, network, and infrastructure changes. This can create a serious time lag on productivity and velocity. With Itential’s latest release of its ServiceNow App, Application teams are now enabled to self-serve network and infrastructure services as a fully automated processes – bridging the gap between IT Apps and the network. This new release introduces Itential Actions that can be directly embedded in a ServiceNow Flow. These Actions give ServiceNow teams access to a self-service catalog that enables their IT processes to directly gather operational network data, request new network resources, or orchestrate changes across multiple network domains. This means that any IT request that experiences delays due to manual network processes can now be automated as easily as other IT resources, enabling you to deliver IT services at maximum efficiency. Join us for a live demo where Rich Martin, Director of Technical Marketing at Itential, will show you how to: • Publish an automation in Itential to provide self-service infrastructure in ServiceNow. • Build a Flow that queries network inventory and operational data for dynamic use in ServiceNow. • Build a Flow to qualify network resource availability for a new service or site. • Build a Flow to provision a new network service as part of a larger IT request process. • Understand how Itential Actions enable self-service automation through Example Flows.

Know, Understand, Execute: Network Monitoring and Analytics with SD-WAN
How do you monitor your network to make sure applications are using the best path possible, detect when a site may need bandwidth capacity upgrades, or detect abnormal traffic behavior? Most network configurations are unable to support end-to-end visibility, monitoring, and management of data traffic, UCaaS applications, or cloud-routed content. SD-WAN changes all that by providing optimized paths to cloud applications and performance assurance using in-depth network monitoring and analytics that allows you to make better decisions. In this session, find out how VMware SD-WAN collects and utilizes real-time network data to report on application flows, end-to-end path visibility, network impairments and abnormal network condition detection.

Cyber Notes Cast - Network Security Perimeter Why Is This Concept Obsolete
For a long time, companies had data centers as their IT infrastructures, which needed to be protected from external agents. Business-critical data was embedded in these allocations, including internal networks, client devices, Internet gateways, applications, and servers. To protect these assets, firewalls, antivirus programs, intrusion systems, and demilitarized zones were used, separating those who had access authorization from those who did not. In this type of structure, anyone could access most of the network, regardless of their need and the tasks they performed in the company. On the other hand, accessing it remotely was a major challenge due to the Network Security Perimeter. The digital transformation process, along with the migration of infrastructures to the cloud and the adoption of remote work models, has led companies to decentralize their infrastructures. One of the direct consequences of this movement was the development and adoption of Zero Trust-based models and micro-segmentation, since the Network Security Perimeter has become inefficient. In this cyber notes cast episode, we will explore this subject. To facilitate your listening, we divided our text into topics: What Is a Network Security Perimeter. Why Many Experts Believe the Network Security Perimeter has Become Outdated. Three Changes that Contributed to Making the Network Security Perimeter Obsolete. New Ways to Handle Network Security Today. Internet of Things and the Network Security Perimeter. About senhasegura. Conclusion. Enjoy this Cyber Notes Cast episode!

Effective Network Monitoring and Visibility with VMware SD-WAN by VeloCloud
IT admin teams require their SD-WAN networks have monitoring and visibility capabilities that provide insight into network performance in order to proactively address instability or service issues. Service disruptions may be due to bandwidth capacity issues at a site that has outgrown the provisioned bandwidth or a carrier SLA not meeting its requirements (e.g. high latency or packet loss). There are other scenarios that can cause a network to be degraded and an IT team needs to have visibility into the network in order to troubleshoot and fix. VMware SD-WAN by VeloCloud is the leader in SD-WAN technology that enables businesses to onboard cloud-based services reliably, connect remote sites efficiently and securely, lower their WAN connectivity costs, and maintain high SLA network services across broadband, wireless or private networks. Join our webinar to learn about the current network monitoring and visibility capabilities of VMware SD-WAN. We will also provide an overview of alerting capabilities and future enhancements related to native path visibility, enterprise dashboards, and partner integrations to enhance the network visibility and analytics experience.

Learn how digital twin technology can quickly resolve network issues.
In this demo Mike will show how Forward Networks' digital twi can: - Help network teams to quickly verify conditions in the network and resolve issues, reducing the need for senior team members to be constantly involved. - identify issues such as an open port that shouldn't be, and identify the likely cause of the issue. - Forward's alert the team when the intent of the network changes, such as when a port that should not be open is detected. - provide a history of collections, showing whether each one passed or failed, and why, aiding in troubleshooting.
