Microsoft India - System Center Desktop Virtualization Strategy WhitepaperMicrosoft Private Cloud
Several forms of desktop virtualization can help organizations satisfy users’ needs for mobility and flexibility, while relieving pressure on information technology (IT) departments to manage cost, security, and compliance. Additionally, desktop virtualization can enable more dynamic centralized management by separating the elements of the traditional desktop computing stack. This white paper describes how to create a virtualization strategy that achieves these goals and introduces comprehensive desktop-irtualization solutions from Microsoft. Finally, it provides high-level guidance to help companies develop a desktop-virtualization strategy.
Fog computing is a method of processing data locally on smart devices rather than sending all data to the cloud. This reduces network congestion and latency. The existing cloud computing model does not adequately secure user data from unauthorized access. The proposed fog computing system would distribute computing across decentralized edge devices, keeping data closer to users and improving security and privacy over traditional cloud systems. However, fog computing may still face security and privacy challenges that need to be addressed.
Cloud computing provides on-demand access to shared computing resources like networks, servers, storage, applications and services over the internet. It delivers applications through web browsers and allows for dynamic scaling of resources. Some benefits include reduced costs, increased storage and flexibility compared to traditional computing methods. However, security, privacy and compliance are important challenges to address with cloud computing.

Adaptive Computation Offloading from Mobile Devices into the CloudDejan Kovachev
The inherently limited processing power and battery lifetime of mobile phones hinder the possible execution of computationally intensive applications like content-based video analysis or 3D modeling. Offloading of computationally intensive application parts from the mobile platform into a remote cloud infrastructure or nearby idle computers addresses this problem. This paper presents our Mobile Augmentation Cloud Services (MACS) middleware which enables adaptive extension of Android application execution from a mobile client into the cloud. Applications are developed by using the standard Android development pattern. The middleware does the heavy lifting of adaptive application partitioning, resource monitoring and computation offloading. These elastic mobile applications can run as usual mobile application, but they can also reach transparently remote computing resources. Two prototype applications using the MACS middleware demonstrate the benefits of the approach. The evaluation shows that applications, which involve complicated algorithms and large computations, can benefit from offloading with around 95\% energy savings and significant performance gains compared to local execution only.

Task Incident Readiness with Veris, Judy Nowak at TASK Toronto, April 27, 2...patmisasi
The document discusses the need for organizations to have an incident response (IR) framework to adequately prepare for security incidents. It introduces the VERIS framework, which can help lay the foundation for an IR program by describing attacks. VERIS provides a common vocabulary for recording and sharing information about security incidents and helps organizations understand the variety of actions, actors, assets, and attributes involved in incidents to improve detection and response capabilities. The document advocates that understanding details about incidents through frameworks like VERIS is important because organizations cannot detect or respond to what they do not understand or know about attacks and attackers.
The document discusses cloud computing and security considerations for moving to the cloud. Some key points:
1) It defines cloud computing based on NIST definitions and emphasizes automation, elasticity, and flexible costing as core benefits of the cloud.
2) It notes that while cost savings are often cited, security and privacy are often overlooked but critical considerations for moving to the cloud.
3) It provides an overview of cloud security elements including identity and access management, data security, encryption, network security, and ensuring secure cloud architecture and design.
This document describes Scalar's managed security services. It notes that cyber attacks are increasing in frequency and severity, posing a major challenge for organizations. While security has become a top priority, many companies lack the in-house expertise to effectively manage their security. Scalar's managed security services allow companies to leverage their specialized skills and expertise through three tiers - Insight, Monitoring, and Management - to address security issues for a predictable monthly cost. This reduces the need for companies to invest in recruiting and training their own security staff.
This document appears to be about a company that has been in business for 11 years and has over 300 staff members. The company provides services related to innovation and expertise as either a reseller or integrator. They have generated over $300 million in revenue during their 11 years of operation.
The document summarizes the top 10 IT concerns in 2016 according to a survey of 785 organizations. The top concerns were alignment of IT with business, security and privacy, and speed of IT delivery. It also discusses how a managed services approach by Scalar Decisions can help address these concerns by removing day-to-day IT burdens, providing 24/7 security experts, and quickly implementing projects through an expert team.

2015 Scalar Security Study Executive Summarypatmisasi
The document summarizes a study on the cyber security readiness of Canadian organizations. It finds that only 41% of respondents believe they are winning the cyber war due to challenges like lack of in-house expertise. Organizations experience an average of 34 cyber attacks per year, with almost half involving sensitive information loss. High-performing organizations that invest more in cyber security (12% of IT budget vs 8% for low performers) are better prepared to mitigate risks and experienced fewer attacks involving information loss (38% vs 53%). The practices of high performers can help organizations improve cyber security effectiveness.
