Breaking out of silos Security teams face an expanding threat landscape and an environment that is rife with complexity—making security efficacy increasingly elusive. The theory behind simplification is simple in theory but can often be difficult to achieve. Security teams need to be able to turn weak signals into reliable alerts and act on them with confidence. This confidence should be based on context gathered from every corner of their environment consolidated into a single…

Organizations have often relied on multiple vendors to connect and secure their branch offices. Through a Do-It-Yourself (DIY) approach, they may have installed a number of disparate WAN edge appliances including routers, firewalls, and WAN optimization devices. As a result, network installations are often complex and difficult to manage. These installations are no longer optimized for the digital era. The network security perimeter is dissolving as more and more applications and workloads are hosted in…

Marvell has begun to sample the Octeon 10, a server microprocessor aimed at intelligent network management that has up to 24 Arm-compatible cores, making it as powerful as any server processor. Marvell refers to the Octeon processor line as data processing units (DPUs). They are designed to run high-throughput data in the cloud and on-premises. The DPU is more commonly called the SmartNIC because it can offload non-computational tasks from the CPU like network packet…

I love servers. But today, server management and operations are at least equally, if not more important, than hardware itself – as much as it pains me to say that as an old school hardware guy. When evaluating servers for your next project, at the edge, in the data center, or someplace in between, you should also evaluate how they are managed and what else that management platform has to offer. Yes, a management platform,…

The security industry brings together people from all backgrounds and experiences. And my path to security is no different. What seems “way back when” in 1994, when the Internet was the next big thing in technology, I was part of the team that set up the national Internet backbone in India. At a time when it was relatively unfamiliar to the masses—just shy of a mere thirty years ago—the internet was also an intriguing concept…
