Implementing Security and Controls in PeopleSoft
Why Security, Compliance and Segregation of Duties?
This webinar addresses the key features for security and controls in PeopleSoft. Without controls built around these features there is a high probability for error, poor performance or in extreme cases fraudulent transactions. SmartERP will guide you through the steps for best-practice techniques in securing your Application, and the Applications available to assist with this process.
5 Traits of a Proactive Guard Tour System24/7 Software
You oversee the security department at your property. You very well know that it's impossible to keep an accurate account of areas that have been inspected because clipboards can easily be altered, and wands don't give you accountability of the inspection.
How can businesses make the smartest telecom and network choices—choices that are guided as much by the organization’s needs and demands as by cost considerations? Increasingly, companies are opting to partner with managed service providers to harness as many benefits as possible from their telecom and network services. Are they realizing these benefits? View the SlideShare to find out.
Only the permanent monitoring of all events allows you a reliable protection of your SAP systems. Thereby a real security incident can arise from a combination of several uncritical events.
In this webinar, Linde will provide insights on how to identify, evaluate and document such an incident as quickly as possible so that appropriate countermeasures can be taken. In case of an attack, the reaction capability has a considerable influence on the expected level of damage.
Topics of focus:
• What is needed for a reliable security monitoring
• Protection of your SAP systems on platform and authorization level
• Identification of vulnerabilities in real time
• Importance of security dashboards to analyze suspicious user activities

Thousands of security-relevant settings in a common SAP system do not make it easy to implement a comprehensive security check. Although the DSAG test guide and other standards explain what should be checked, they do not show how this can be done, and certainly not what the ideal approach is. Therefore, in this webinar we will show you how you can effectively and efficiently control the security status of your SAP ERP and S/4HANA systems and what advantages a tool-based check offers you.
Topics of focus:
• Challenges with the implementation of security guidelines
• Overview of relevant regulations
• Project methodology for a security management process
• Advantages of tool-supported checks with the SAST SUITE
• Best practice tips

Microsoft: A Waking Giant In Healthcare Analytics and Big DataHealth Catalyst
In 2005, Northwestern Memorial Healthcare embarked upon a strategic Enterprise Data Warehousing (EDW) initiative with the Microsoft technology platform as the foundation. Dale Sanders was CIO at Northwestern and led the development of Northwestern’s Microsoft-based EDW. At that time, Microsoft as an EDW platform was not en vogue and there were many who doubted the success of the Northwestern project. While other organizations were spending millions of dollars and years developing EDW’s and analytics on other platforms, Northwestern achieved great and rapid value at a fraction of the cost of the more typical technology platforms. Now, there are more healthcare data warehouses built around Microsoft products than any other vendor. The risky bet on Microsoft in 2005 paid off.
Ten years ago, critics didn’t believe that Microsoft could scale in the second generation of relational data warehouses, but they did. More recently, many of these same pundits have criticized Microsoft for missing the technology wave du jour in cloud offerings, mobile technology, and big data. But, once again, Microsoft has been quietly reengineering its culture and products, and as a result, they now offer the best value and most visionary platform for cloud services, big data, and analytics in healthcare.
In this context, Dale will talk about:
His up and down journey with Microsoft as an Air Force and healthcare CIO, and why he is now more bullish on Microsoft like never before
A quick review of the Healthcare Analytics Adoption Model and Closed Loop Analytics in healthcare, and how Microsoft products relate to both
The rise of highly specialized, cloud-based analytic services and their value to healthcare organizations’ analytics strategies
Microsoft’s transformation from a closed-system, desktop PC company to an open-system consumer and business infrastructure company
The current transition period of enterprise data warehouses between the decline of relational databases and the rise of non-relational databases, and the new Microsoft products, notably Azure and the Analytic Platform System (APS), that bridge the transition of skills and technology while still integrating with core products like Office, Active Directory, and System Center

How to Position Your Globus Data Portal for Success Ten Good PracticesGlobus
Science gateways allow science and engineering communities to access shared data, software, computing services, and instruments. Science gateways have gained a lot of traction in the last twenty years, as evidenced by projects such as the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) and the Center of Excellence on Science Gateways (SGX3) in the US, The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) and its platforms in Australia, and the projects around Virtual Research Environments in Europe. A few mature frameworks have evolved with their different strengths and foci and have been taken up by a larger community such as the Globus Data Portal, Hubzero, Tapis, and Galaxy. However, even when gateways are built on successful frameworks, they continue to face the challenges of ongoing maintenance costs and how to meet the ever-expanding needs of the community they serve with enhanced features. It is not uncommon that gateways with compelling use cases are nonetheless unable to get past the prototype phase and become a full production service, or if they do, they don't survive more than a couple of years. While there is no guaranteed pathway to success, it seems likely that for any gateway there is a need for a strong community and/or solid funding streams to create and sustain its success. With over twenty years of examples to draw from, this presentation goes into detail for ten factors common to successful and enduring gateways that effectively serve as best practices for any new or developing gateway.

If your environment runs slower than xyz, you need this!
Are your ITSM/ITAM processes aligned to your implementation
Pro Tip: Ensure you are using the least scoped
Type Projection (Combination Class) for your views.
Ex: Using Incident Advanced loads tons of data you
don’t need and slows the performance down!!!

If your environment runs slower than xyz, you need this!
Based on the Pole if you choose between 6 to 10 seconds you need to consider a health check or higher load time you need a health check. You also want to look at
Do your Workitem Views take forever and a day to display results?
Are workflows running longer than normal or timing out
Are your IT Analyst complaining of Performance
From an End User Perspective are they Satisfied with the Self-Service Portal Performance or is the Service Catalog Design meeting your organizations requirements. Which leads us to
ITSM/ITAM processes aligned to your implementation
Where some of your processes may not be efficiently mapped to service manager causing inefficient or unneeded workflows, which in turn is causing performance issues.
Are you using the SCSM Process Modules properly - Example - are you using Incidents for SR or PR
Are you getting the proper Key Performance Indicator Reports (KPI) to accurately measure your Service Management Performance. Without accurate information it is difficult to provide ITIL Continual Service Improvement
SCSM- looks at the current environment, specifically, Service Manager management servers and primary workflow server, the Service Manager data warehouse Servers, and the Service Manager databases servers as well as the patches levels on these servers. This phase also includes a look at firewall settings, backup and maintenance windows, and network configuration.
Example - client l spoke to recently encountered a disaster, had to rebuild the environment and when the Service Manager DB was restored it was corrupt. Therefore, having to rebuild from scratch.
DR – Document Security Role Setup since not stored in MP only DB
Not a bad idea to put the DLLs on both though for DR purposes. Primary server fails and you promote the secondary, less you need to fiddle with to restore service
Backups enc keys, unsealed mps, sealed mps, ensure all ms dedicated to workflow failover have necessary dlls installed
Here we ensure you are configured for optimal performance and scale by looking at the system configuration around role sizing and placement; number of supported users, average number of work items per month, number of configuration items in the database, and average concurrent browser sessions. Once this information is obtained we then verify the proper CPU, memory, and storage configuration on SCSM, Cireson Portal Web and Database Servers.
Your database is the long term memory of your environment, and just like you, it needs to be cared for and properly maintained to recall information efficiently.
takes a closer look at the Service Manager and Data Warehouse databases. We look at the current configurations for data retention, grooming, and base SQL configuration including database size and placement, storage I/O, and other best practice configurations
Workflows are the heart of your environment, so let us make sure they are healthy and running efficiently.
From a Service Manager Perspective lets dive into the performance of the individual workflows. Really want to dig deep into the subscriptions, queues and groups, email notifications, and other built in workflows by looking at the timing and performance of these workflows to identify potential configuration and performance issues
Now lets focus on Cireson applications workflow configuration and performance. This includes the workflow configurations for the Service Management and Asset Management Streams as well as other Cireson applications dependent upon the Service Manager workflows
More workflows! Your reports require workflows too, so lets make sure you have access to the recent and relevant information that you need by
Focusing on the Data Warehouse and reporting infrastructure. Some of the issues looked for include consistent job performance in recent weeks, or identification and remediation recommendations for any job failures
We will make sure Service Manager is communicating properly and providing you with access to the data you need to operate properly
By reviewing the Service Manager connector framework to identify any issues with configured connectors around configuration best practices, missing data, or performance issues
Here we want to look at best practices around Service Accounts, User Roles, and Scoping.
Cireson - looks at the Cireson Portal security configuration around Request and Service offerings, as well as the use of queues and CI groups
Here we look at the configuration of each of the installed Cireson applications and compares them to best practices
Each customization for every application needs to be reviewed and if we uncover issue we will provided recommendations to improving performance or reducing complexity. The goal here is to reduce administrative overhead and align you applications to best practices.

Process
Process Analysis
Review Current Process Documentation – Is it up to date, has the business changed where processes need to change
Interview Key Stakeholders and Process Owners.
KPI Reporting Requirements – Type of reports needed to measure success
Review Service Management, Asset Management and Automation Process Mappings to Service Manager.
Improving KPI
Health Checks lead to improved KPI Reporting – Which in turn leads to better ITIL Continual Services Improvement process
Process Module Analysis – Example - are you using Incidents for SR or PR which will skew KPI reporting.
Service Level Object (SLO) Analysis –Not using SLO but should be, or if using SLO’s are the right SLO’s in place, Are they configured to match expected Service Levels.
Realign Process Mappings
Use examples – Client customized Service Manager to the tenth degree to accommodate processes not meeting ITIL standards and spent months developing and spent 10’s of thousands for a solution that was difficult to support and manage. Now the client is realigning their processes so they can revert Service Manager back to to simplify and optimize the overall solution.
Is where we provide recommendation to efficiently map your processes to service manager to reduce inefficient or unneeded workflows, therefore optimizing the solution

3 things you can do to work towards protecting your investment…
MP Backup for Sealed and Unsealed MPs
Configuration Export for everything!
3. Mdowst script: As everyone who has worked with System Center Operations Manager or Service Manager know, after a while your custom management packs (MP) can become littered with unneeded references. This can cause MPs to have dependencies on other MPs even if they don’t actually have any interaction with each other. After talking with my colleague Cameron Fuller, we realized that SCOM and SCSM both suffer from this problem. After looking into this problem, I decided to create a PowerShell script that would check all the references in an MP and remove any that are unneeded. Luckily, since SCOM and SCSM both use the same basic management structure, I was able to create one script that can run for both systems.
When you execute the script, it will make a backup of the MP with the current version number appended to the file name. Then it will increment the MP version, then it gets all of the reference aliases, checks thought-out the MP for other references to it. If it does not find any other references to the alias it removes it from the XML. Depending on the size of the number of references the script can take a few seconds to a few minutes to run.
To run the script you need to export your management pack in XML form. It will not work on a sealed management pack. Then you just need to supply the MP path and name as the –file parameter.
