This white paper discusses the tips and tricks that might make file copying quicker for your network. 

For many years network administrators have expected security breaches to come from outside an organization or at the upper layers of the OSI model. This paper will focus on securing layer 2 switching at the access layer through port security and preventing denial of service (DoS) attacks at layer 2. 

Data abstraction overcomes data structure incompatibility by transforming data from its native structure and syntax into reusable views and data services. But some data abstraction approaches work better than others. Composite data virtualization is an optimal way to implement an abstraction layer at enterprise scale. 

A new approach to Business Process Management (BPM) is the use of BPM and SOA together in a layering strategy. This white paper explores the BPM layered concept and offers a case study of how ABN AMRO, one of the world's largest financial institutions, has benefited from its deployment. 

This paper outlines the things you must consider when thinking about the feasibility of replacing a WAN provider’s provider (P) and provider edge (PE) devices with routers. This paper examines these considerations in greater detail, to see where any potential problems might arise. 

Gain insight into the value of a new technology, overlay transport virtualization (OTV), in this expert resource. OTV enables network scaling and the moving of components of the data center from one side to the other. 

This resource explores an innovative, market leading mobile security solution that mitigates the risks associated with deploying IP-based services. 

Typical IT departments feature islands of isolated infrastructure, leading to inefficient use of servers. The "application grid" concept allows data centres to run more efficiently, using less hardware and less software. This paper explains. 

Forward error correction (FEC) technology protects against network packet loss. Content delivery solutions using FEC have numerous user experience and cost advantages. This paper provides a technical overview of RaptorQ, the best available application-layer FEC technology. 

This white paper details the security features in each layer of Oracle’s integrated end-to-end solution stack, including infrastructure, database, middleware and application security, as well as the economic benefits of deploying a defense-in-depth strategy. 

Any virtualization layer or hypervisor introduces a new set of demands to a server or blade environment. This e-book explains the process of virtualizing the I/O layer, how to manage it and what challenges remain for this disruptive technology. 

This paper guides IT professionals through the steps necessary to implement a practical data loss prevention (DLP) strategy. It starts off by looking at what’s driving data loss prevention, the consequences of data loss, and a possible solution. It then moves on to practical implementation advice and examples.
