NEC Backup as a Service reduces administrative tasks, helping it departments...InteractiveNEC
Cloud solutions continue to grow not only in adoption but also in importance in customer IT strategies. In typical risk-averse practices, cloud solutions were initially used near the fringes of IT environments, delivering test and development functions far outside most of the core mission-critical workloads sustaining internal and external business operations. Likewise, customers in regulated industries such as healthcare or government were initially wary of the security and performance of services delivered from third-party data centers. These dynamics are changing rapidly, however, as both the customer and vendor behavior around cloud have matured considerably. Cloud providers have expanded their data center locations, added almost every flavor of regulatory compliance, and enhanced security capabilities. These developments have dramatically lowered the traditional barriers to cloud adoption, allowing customers in almost any industry to have at least the possibility of deploying most of their workloads through cloud delivery methods.
The Enterprise Internet of Things: Think Security FirstDell World
The proliferation of connected products and equipment creates an almost limitless combination of physical-cyber intersections and opportunities for security breaches. Designing enterprise Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystems must start with identifying potential security vulnerabilities and developing a unified security approach to keep a step ahead of threats and maintain a predictive, proactive security posture. Securing IoT ecosystems is complex but with the industry's broadest portfolio of security tools and expertise—and a holistic approach—Dell helps reduce security risk to ensure your enterprise infrastructure and data remain safe, secure and private. This session will discuss the unique security risks in IoT ecosystems and the strategies and tools for addressing them.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:

by means of which NEC is not only enabling new approaches to how IT services are delivered and managed,
but also new ways for businesses to grow.
2014
NEC identifies and discusses the following top 10 Smart Enterprise Trends that will be strategic for many
organizations and will have significant impact on their operations in the coming years.
Smart Enterprise Trends 2014

4. One
Integrating the Mobile Workforce
In today’s flexible and fast-moving business environment, the size
of the mobile workforce is increasing year over year. Employees are
never in one place for very long and can be just about anywhere:
at the office, between appointments, on business travel or working
from home.
The pervasiveness of mobile connectivity, coupled with access to all
relevant data and applications, supports the non-stationary workforce
to conduct business regardless of location. Location becomes
unimportant, while presence becomes all the more crucial.
With their smartphones and media tablets as most common business
tool, mobile workers need to – similar to their desktop phones and
computers – be fully integrated with a company’s network and its
business applications. This seamlessly extends enterprise telephony
functionality and applications to these mobile devices, providing single
number reachability, least cost routing through the company network,
access to company directories, data and more.

Fixed Mobile Convergence supports smartphones anywhere in the
world as an integrated extension of a company network, enabling
switching from cellular networks to WiFi networks.
When integrated, personal devices can be used in conjunction with
enterprise security credentials – securing enterprise information and
supporting ‘Bring Your Own Device’ (BYOD) policies.

5. With organizations becoming increasingly fragmented, departments
more flexible and employees more mobile, Unified Communication
and Collaboration (UC&C) enables working together, in real time, and
interacting efficiently and effectively with co-workers, with clients and
suppliers.
With advanced tools such as instant video conferencing, shared
workspace, calendar coordination and rich presence, UC&C drives
productivity across an organization and reduces latencies in all areas,
creating an informed and connected workplace.
It offers business enhancements such as the ability to optimise
processes, integrate multiple communications channels, utilise
smartphones and tablets and integrate business applications,
including those used for product development, process control and
customer services.
Two
UC&C uptake will surge as applications and tools are introduced that
make set up and use of conferencing and file sharing easy – from any
desktop or mobile device, inside or outside the office. The speed,
flexibility and the cost & time effectiveness of such collaboration
sessions will make them become the defacto standard, significantly
reducing the need to meet in person and thus for business travel.
Instant Collaboration Reduces Latency
and Drives Productivity

6. Three
Beyond Virtualization towards
Services Centric Operations
Companies are increasingly turning to virtualization as the answer
to their IT challenges. A virtualized infrastructure improves business
continuity through system-level fault tolerance to protect missioncritical applications. It minimizes capital expenditure and operating
cost by consolidating multiple physical servers on a single host,
running Virtual Machines.
But virtualization offers much more than simple server consolidation
and cost savings. Virtual work environments support workers
anywhere and deliver individual workers more freedom within their
jobs. Through desktop virtualization, employees can access their
applications and data very safely over a network, minimizing the risk
of data loss.
Virtualization becomes the catalyst in the shift from device centric
toward services centric operations. In addition to enterprise cloud,
the personal cloud will gradually replace the PC as the location
where individuals keep their personal content and access their
services.
The personal cloud shifts the focus from the client device to cloudbased services delivered across devices. Specifics of devices
become less important and personal cloud services become the
new hub for content that is always at hand – the smart and secure
workplace.

7. Cloud computing is changing the enterprise’s approach to IT and
communications, with more flexible architectures and cost structures.
Combining the best features of both public and private clouds, the
hybrid cloud infrastructure offers beyond doubt true benefits to
companies aiming to stay ahead in their markets.
Businesses are increasingly turning to hybrid cloud solutions to
reduce costs and enable scalable business processes. While they
use public clouds for less sensitive applications, they prefer to use
private clouds for their most vital processing tasks.
Hybrid clouds can quickly scale to a company’s needs and can be
operated at all times, from any part of the world. This gives them
a global reach for businesses beyond geographic boundaries.
Enterprises should therefore design private cloud services with
a hybrid future in mind and make sure future integration and
interoperability is possible.
Four
Cloud-based voice services enable access to PBX-like features from
any location. Unlike a call that is simply forwarded to a remote office
or home, a virtual PBX will allow the remote user to access all the
features typically found in a business environment from a home phone
or mobile device from the cloud when initiating or receiving a call.
The bright Future of Hybrid Cloud

8. Five
Modularity – Pay just for what you Use
Enterprises need to align their IT infrastructure capabilities with
expanding business requirements. This can be a complex endeavour,
not in the least in deciding where and how to deploy new equipment
to accommodate current and future increases in demand.
Modularity allows investing only in what is needed today, trimming
up-front costs and leaving open the possibility of expanding or
incorporating new technologies in the future. Organizations which
deploy only the technology needed to run today’s needs, have
evident CAPEX and OPEX benefits. In essence, they just pay what
and when they need it.
Cloud is a special case for modularity; it’s not about how to divide a
physical space into different areas, but rather how to allocate specific
functions or workloads to an off-premise facility.
Many organizations are rapidly approaching a critical decision point:
they need to maintain the ability to deploy applications across the
full range of today’s alternatives (physical, virtual, private cloud,
public cloud) and manage OPEX – which accounts for the majority of
equipment– to ensure that they are cost-competitive in their markets.
The clear implication of these factors is that executives need to make
decisions on their IT equipment – whether to replace, revitalize, and/
or outsource some or all of their equipment.

9. Numerous organizations depend on generic or specific IT
applications in support of their day to day operation and services,
which makes it a necessity to guarantee the continuous operation of
all essential systems. It has become a matter of course for services
to be offered 24 hours a day, 365 days a year across countries. As
a result, IT systems need to be extremely reliable and the application
of High Availability to IT systems becomes one of the most important
challenges in IT strategy.
one are another form of clustering solution. This can be clustering
software to fault tolerant server solutions delivering exceptional
uptime through dual modular hardware redundancy. These servers
provide continuous availability through hardware redundancy in all
components: processors, memory, motherboards, I/O, hard disk
drives and cooling fans, for optimal data integrity.
IT managers need to protect data and applications, from sudden
hardware, OS and application failures to sudden natural disaster. To
achieve a high level of operational uptime, infrastructure components
must be fault tolerant with the ability to recover from complex failures.
This is all the more important in mission-critical environments, such
as healthcare, banking, insurances, e-commerce or web services.

A virtualized infrastructure improves business continuity. In order
to continue the workflow on standby systems without stopping
business operations when failure strikes, the best solution is to have

10. Seven
Software Defined anything
Software-defined anything (SDx) is defined by ‘improved standards
for infrastructure programmability and data center interoperability,
driven by automation inherent to cloud computing, DevOps and fast
infrastructure provisioning’. Customers will benefit from simplicity,
cost reduction opportunities and the possibility for consolidation.
Leading the charge is software-defined networking (SDN), a
technology to abstract network architecture and make network
devices programmable. Its goal is to make networks more dynamic
and allow network engineers and administrators to respond quickly
to changing business requirements.
In an SDN, a network administrator can shape traffic from a
centralized control console without having to touch individual
switches. The administrator can change any network switch’s rules
when necessary – prioritizing, de-prioritizing or even blocking specific
types of packets with a very granular level of control. This is especially
helpful in a cloud computing multi-tenant architecture because it
allows managing traffic loads in a flexible and more efficient manner.
Essentially, this enables the administrator to use less expensive,
10
commodity switches and have more control over network traffic flow
than ever before. SDN is expected to extend to all aspects of the
infrastructure. Currently, the most popular specification for creating an
SDN is an open standard called OpenFlow. OpenFlow lets network
administrators remotely control routing tables.

11. Performance improvement and cost reduction of sensors and
processing technologies spurs data collection and information
extraction across a wide range of sectors – such as industry,
energy & transport, wireless communications, defence, security
and medical sectors.
From imaging and pattern recognition to location detection and
magnetic sensing, all these techniques aim to provide relevant data to
empower accurate decision making at the time and place of action.
In particular biometric technology – using biological attributes of
a person – has matured rapidly over recent years, and its use for
security and authentication purposes has become increasingly
common. Fingerprints, facial definitions, body contours, retinal scans
and voice files – all can be composited through software to identify
and recognize individuals, to make them stand out from the crowd, to
enable them to identify themselves without additional data or devices,
to enable speedy and secure contextual interaction.
Eight
Whether at airports, border crossings, football stadiums or public
transportation entry points, use of effective biometrics is a fast,
efficient way of quickly identifying large numbers of people.
Biometrics goes hand in hand with data analysis to create useful
insights when combined with personal preferences, location,
environmental characteristics and/or social information. Coupled with
advanced communications and messaging solutions, it becomes an
indispensable part of context-aware solutions – from public safety
and institutional security, to wearable smart electronics and automatic
medication delivery to patients.

12. Nine
Contextual Data Analysis for Fast and Accurate
Decision Making
Contextual data spans the last mile of personal and business
productivity. It provides new insights to guide public, private and
business decisions. Smart devices and smart machines combining
inputs from multiple sensors will ‘outsmart’ human beings in terms
of speed, accuracy and alertness.
‘Meta-information’ will accompany voice, video, chat and text
communications to provide fuller context for interactions. Contextually
aware presence allows employees to receive information on content,
tools, and services based on contextual information, such as the
geographical location, personal preferences, and current activities of
group members.
Enterprises are deploying Big Data projects to drive better business
intelligence, product development and customer service. This
includes the unstructured data as captured from mobile devices,
social media, log files, emails, images and video, which are used
to perform real-time analytics. Social media for instance is making
marketing more targeted and effective, and businesses will start
integrating marketing data from multiple sources.
12
The surge in data drives storage solutions to become more flexible
and scalable as organizations find it increasingly complex to store,
protect, and manage all their information. New storage solutions will
focus on the need for simple manageability, while providing excellent
reliability.

13. Information and Communications Technology will play an increasingly
vital role in an energy efficient society, required to balance energy
supply and demand.
is also critical for optimizing the balance between power supply and
demand. This requires energy storage systems with a long lifespan
that do not take up a lot of space.
Smart Buildings achieve enhanced environmental and economic
performance by producing, storing, efficiently managing and optimally
controlling energy. Building Energy Management Systems will play an
increasingly vital role in such Smart Buildings.
Furthermore, advances in renewable energy technology will also allow
individuals to collect kinetic energy, which now goes to waste, and
use it to help power our homes, offices and cities.
Energy waste can be minimized through location information enabling
automatically controlling air conditioning and lighting. Linking building
automation systems that perform integrated equipment surveillance,
security systems and systems to monitor energy usage, can provide
location data on individuals to enhance security.
Ten
Within enterprises and data centers an important focus will be on
technologies that help save power, such as virtualization, more
power-efficient equipment, and more efficient power distribution and
air condition. Storing large volumes of electric power within a building
