Time: 2:00 p.m. New York / 7:00 p.m. London
Overview:
Advances in Internet broadband services have enabled companies to pick up their data centers and move them into the cloud. By offloading processing chores to a third party, corporations can cut their staffing requirements, speed up application deployment, and simplify their management chores. Sounds great, but these benefits often come with a dark side, suspect security. Because cloud services are new, suppliers are now figuring out how to make sure they are secure. This Webinar will examine the new security challenges that cloud computing presents, discuss steps suppliers are taking to address them, identify weak and strong security areas, and outline the steps companies should take to ensure that their data is safe.

Paul Korzeniowski is a freelance writer who has been dissecting technology and business issues for two decades. He served on the staffs of ComputerWorld, NetworkWorld, and Internet Week before branching out on his own. Since then, his work has appeared in numerous business and technology publications, including Business 2.0, Entrepreneur, Investors Business Daily, Newsweek, and InformationWeek. His areas of expertise include high speed networking, Web 2.0 applications, and security

Last week, TechCrunch broke a rumor that Cisco Systems Inc. (Nasdaq: CSCO) has made a bid for Skype Ltd. Never mind that as recently as Friday, neither Cisco nor Skype would discuss the matter. Not that these noncommittal “official comments” mean much. The rumor was in the breeze, and that set people speculating about what this might mean for both companies.
