(North America, Public Sector)
This year’s survey found that the global investment community in the U.S., the UK, Europe, and Asia continues to place a premium on companies that are best able to monetize the data they collect even during a period of market instability. Since 2014, data monetization’s impact on investor decision has increased by seven percent, with 41 percent of those surveyed indicating an effect. In addition, almost a fifth of analysts surveyed believe that a company’s ability to monetize data is the single most important driver of investments, a four percent increase since 2014.
Key highlights include:
• Rise in investment decisions based on the data premium
• Cybersecurity’s importance to M&A
• Data protection increasingly crucial
• Financial services at greatest cyber risk
• Data premium lags in Europe

Cybersecurity breaches in the government seem to be all over the news. The sheer number and wild variety of sources for these breaches led us to wonder what federal agencies are really dealing with. SolarWinds® partnered with leading government research provider Market Connections to survey 200 federal IT and IT security professionals to find out their top cybersecurity concerns and the obstacles they face when implementing IT security strategies.
The results of our survey include:
Detailed insight into the threats, challenges, and sources of cybersecurity breaches the government faces in its IT infrastructure
Top hindrances in the implementation of appropriate IT security tools
Strategies and courses of action being deployed by federal IT professionals to remediate cybersecurity threats
These results demonstrate that a broad and concerning range of cybersecurity threats plague government agencies. Federal IT pros must consider taking a more pragmatic and unified approach to addressing the availability, performance, and security of their infrastructures.

In a 2014 survey by SolarWinds and Market Connections, federal government and military IT professionals stated that their biggest cybersecurity threats are people both malicious external attackers and clueless insiders. So how do Federal IT Pros prevent activity that can put their agencies security at risk and address these living cybersecurity threats when human behavior is out of their
control? Implementing continuous monitoring solutions can help federal agencies safeguard against human error and quickly identify vulnerabilities, compliance issues and other threats by automatically collecting data and reporting on the performance, availability and security posture of an IT infrastructure. While continuous monitoring of the performance of networks, applications, servers, and
more will not stop hackers from attempting to infiltrate a network or stop careless employees from accidental blunders, it can provide a first line of defense and critical insight into how the IT infrastructure is impacted. In this session you will learn: " The top cybersecurity threats plaguing agencies today and their sources " The types of continuous monitoring tools and technologies that can be leveraged by both IT operations and information security simultaneously to quickly detect and mitigate threats " How to overcome common obstacles and frustrations agencies face when implementing continuous monitoring solutions and what benefits they see upon implementation.

SolarWinds Application Performance End User Survey (Australia)SolarWinds
The proliferation of BYOD, cloud, SaaS and consumer technologies in the workplace have made the application the disruptive technology that will drive business IT into the coming decades. At the same time, the application delivery chain is becoming more complex to support as applications become more networked, virtualization drives IT infrastructure convergence and abstraction and end users become more mobile. These survey findings highlight the impact of application performance and availability on business end users, and their experiences with and expectations of IT when problems arise. Chief among the findings is that while the application is now the heart of businesses of all sizes and its performance is the lifeblood of success, IT continues to struggle to ensure its performance and availability.
Confidence in global M&A activity endures but dealmakers less bullish.
After a banner year for merger and acquisition activity in 2014, leading dealmakers expect sustained strong volume in 2015, but are less optimistic than they were a year ago, according to the 8th Annual Brunswick Group M&A Survey. Fewer dealmakers expect global M&A activity to reach new heights, with just over half (54%) of respondents predicting it will increase in 2015, compared with 78% of those surveyed in 2014.
The survey polled 115 top M&A practitioners from North America, Europe and Asia. Results were released ahead of the Tulane University Law School 27th Annual Corporate Law Institute, an annual gathering of the M&A community that draws lawyers, bankers, Delaware judges and other market participants.

In this survey, sponsored by Sungard Availability Services, and conducted by the EIU, 304 executives dispersed across France, the United Kingdom and the United States, were polled regarding their organisational resilience and technology adoption.
The start of the school year is near. While there is still a need to get back to the basics with pencils and textbooks, digital influences continue to increase and device ownership is at an all-time high. Parents’ household financial situation is holding consistent with last year, and so too is families’ average spending on school supplies. In addition, cyber security continues to be top of mind, as the majority of consumers demonstrate concerns about the protection of their personal data. These trends and more are highlighted in our latest surveys: www.deloitte.com/us/2015Back2School.

Techniques to optimize the pagerank algorithm usually fall in two categories. One is to try reducing the work per iteration, and the other is to try reducing the number of iterations. These goals are often at odds with one another. Skipping computation on vertices which have already converged has the potential to save iteration time. Skipping in-identical vertices, with the same in-links, helps reduce duplicate computations and thus could help reduce iteration time. Road networks often have chains which can be short-circuited before pagerank computation to improve performance. Final ranks of chain nodes can be easily calculated. This could reduce both the iteration time, and the number of iterations. If a graph has no dangling nodes, pagerank of each strongly connected component can be computed in topological order. This could help reduce the iteration time, no. of iterations, and also enable multi-iteration concurrency in pagerank computation. The combination of all of the above methods is the STICD algorithm. [sticd] For dynamic graphs, unchanged components whose ranks are unaffected can be skipped altogether.

Why do we
do it?
The crisis caused by the coronavirus has put all
sectors and areas of society on alert. In this new world,
startups have the agility and creativity to respond quickly
and positively to this crisis. They are also among the first to
have to take measures to survive in a world of challenges,
opportunities and risks.
In this study we analyze how the coronavirus crisis is
impacting our portfolio of more than 500 startups and the
entrepreneurial ecosystems in which we have a presence
in Europe and Latin America. Today, more than ever,
innovation does not stop.

The Covid-19 crisis is negatively impacting most startups (74%), regardless of the
geography where theydo business.
However, one in four startups (26%) considers this situation
to be positive for their business due to the acceleration in
the digitization process
57% of startups look to the future with optimism. They
consider that once the crisis is over, their activity will return
to normal
However, many also agree that investment in innovative
solutions and proof of concept (PoC) will be affected in the
short term.

Answer to
the crisis There is greater concern about trying
to alleviate the effects of the crisis with
contingency plans in European
startups (66%) compared to Latin
America (34%), perhaps due to an
earlier and more severe extension of
the pandemic in Europe.
9. 9
Liquidity The founders expect sharp falls in the income of their startups
, 29% believe that their income will fall more than 50%
with respect to expectations, and a greater difficulty in
financing in the coming months, so that liquidity management
it is the number one priority.
The most frequently adopted measures to manage liquidity are
• reducing operating costs
• reducing the number of employees
• reducing marketing investment
However, 72% of startups plan to maintain or increase
their number of employees despite this situation in the
next three months.
10. 10
Retention
Most of the startups (60%) have
implemented customer retention
plans (discounts for annual
payment, cancellations if cost to
clients, among others).
11. 11
Situations
with the
greatest
risk
The businesses that face a higher risk are those that the
crisis finds them actively seeking investment (54%).
20% of the startups consider that they will not survive if
the crisis lasts more than 3 monthS.
Because of this crisis, 5.6% think that their activity will
cease immediately.
12. 12
Team
Managemet
All startups have implemented teleworking and 85% declare that they have done so
normallyand without affecting the dynamics of their business.
In some cases, it is considered to maintain telework
permanently, beyond the crisis.
Actions to generate commitment and loyalty of the team
are highlighted. Transparency with the team when
communicating plans and adopting measures that facilitate the
balance of work and personal life.
Some founders highlight the opportunity to access quality
talent.
Less than 20% propose layoffs and 9% foresee reductions
in working hours.
13. 13
Responsability
to face Covid-
19
59% of startups are leading actions aimed at generating a
positive impact on society during the crisis.
The most repeated actions have to do with developing
and opening free content or providing licenses for
health centers and affected sectors.
