This document discusses key trends that are changing how organizations support their employees' computing needs. It notes that the traditional desktop-centric model no longer applies as employees increasingly use personal mobile devices and expect to access work systems and applications from anywhere. The document outlines challenges for IT departments in managing this new environment, including rapid technology changes, user expectations, and the need to support a variety of platforms while ensuring security, compliance and cost efficiency. It presents the Symantec endpoint management solution as a way to address these challenges through unified policy management, application delivery, security and support across physical, virtual and mobile devices.

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.

IBM Smarter Business 2012 - BYOD: "So what?" – Enabling mobile and mixed endp...IBM Sverige
Wouldn't it be nice to say "yes" when the employees wish to access company information using their iPads or other devices they bring? To attract and retain top talent, we need to be open to new working practices, and deal with the challenges that brings. With the User and Network Carrier being in control of that device, we need new ways to manage the risk. For example, how can you prevent business critical information being stolen from a lost smartphone? How do you enforce mobile security standards ? Distribute recommended mobile applications?
Keith Poyser joined IBM with the BigFix acquisition, and in this presentation he will be outlining how IBM has been able to help different type of companies solving BYOD and other endpoint management issues using BigFix, now known as IBM Endpoint Manager," from datacenter, to desktop, to device."

IBM Smarter Business 2012 - 11 trender för Enterprise Mobile just nuIBM Sverige
Den mobila marknaden har så här långt mest handlat om konsumentappar, men nu ser vi flera trender mot Enterprise Mobile där organisationer önskar erbjuda sina anställda att använda applikationer när de behöver det, med deras egna mobila enheter. Och de vill helst använda de mobila enheter som passer dem själva (BYOD). Dessutom vill organisationer erbjuda sina kunder mobila tjänster och allt det här skapar utmaningar. IBM vill, som ledare inom den här marknaden, hjälpa kunder att ta rätt beslut och göra verklighet av sina visioner. Lyssna på Johannes Eltz från IBM:s huvudkontor prata om IBM:s syn på Enterprise Mobile, de 11 tydligaste trenderna.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Why You Should Replace Windows 11 with Nitrux Linux 3.5.0 for enhanced perfor...SOFTTECHHUB
The choice of an operating system plays a pivotal role in shaping our computing experience. For decades, Microsoft's Windows has dominated the market, offering a familiar and widely adopted platform for personal and professional use. However, as technological advancements continue to push the boundaries of innovation, alternative operating systems have emerged, challenging the status quo and offering users a fresh perspective on computing.
One such alternative that has garnered significant attention and acclaim is Nitrux Linux 3.5.0, a sleek, powerful, and user-friendly Linux distribution that promises to redefine the way we interact with our devices. With its focus on performance, security, and customization, Nitrux Linux presents a compelling case for those seeking to break free from the constraints of proprietary software and embrace the freedom and flexibility of open-source computing.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.
