  • it is a sad fact that too few CEOs make the connection this current wave of the Internet and any change in the way business works. This I believe is a pity and it could cost businesses money.
  • For many CEOs, I would suggest, this trend is one which they understand only tangentially – perhaps when they see their home telecommunications bill if they have children – or when they meet one of their generation Y employees, who cheekily ‘demands’ instant messaging or an iPhone as part of their salary package.
  • it is the platform of networked based colllaboration tools, created on the public Internet but increasingly being adopted in the workplace, which will set apart the successful businesses of the first two decades of the 21st century.

  • When a business works out how to use collaboration tools properly, it can open up an entirely new way of improving resource allocation, driving innovation, getting closer to customers and partners, taking costs out of the business and reducing time-to-market. Collaboration, based on the network as the platform, is even able to help reduce the impact of business on the environment.

DoD, DHS to align cybersecurity capabilities - 0 views

  • The new partnership appears to be part of an effort to move past previous agency turf wars. Last March, for example, Rod Beckstrom resigned from his position as director of the DHS' National Cyber Security Center, citing insufficient funding and support. In his letter of resignation to Napolitano, Beckstrom said the DHS's cybersecurity efforts are "controlled" by the NSA. Meanwhile, it is not uncommon for government departments and agencies to enter into formal agreements to work together on certain issues and to “swap” employees to improve synchronization, Marcus Sachs, director of the SANS Internet Storm Center, told SCMagazineUS.com on Thursday. This agreement is particularly important because the DoD and DHS have a joint mission to protect the United States in cyberspace, he said.

    The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announced plans Tuesday to streamline their cybersecurity capabilities to better protect the nation's networks. Late last month, Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano and Secretary of Defense Robert Gates signed an agreement that formalizes processes for the two agencies to work together to protect U.S. networks and critical infrastructure. The agreement outlines a framework whereby the agencies will provide cybersecurity support to one another, and was intended to improve collaboration as the two departments carry out their respective cybersecurity missions.

  • In this post, I want to highlight three major improvements in SharePoint that support eDiscovery. You can: Manage holds and conduct eDiscovery searches on any site collection Use SharePoint Server Search or FAST Search for SharePoint out of box to search and process content Automatically copy eDiscovery search results to a separate repository for further analysis
  • SharePoint Sever 2010 addresses the Information Management, Identification, Preservation and Collection stages
  • Hold and eDiscovery is a site level feature that can be activated on any site.
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • Activating this feature creates a new category in Site Settings that provides links to Holds and Hold Reports lists
  • With the Hold and eDiscovery feature you can create holds in the hold list and then manually add content to the relevant hold by clicking on Compliance Details from the drop down menu for individual items.
  • What if you have a large amount of items you want to find and add to a hold? For that you can use the features on the Discover and hold content page, which is a settings page in Site Settings. From this page you can specify a search query and then preview the results. The configured search service (SharePoint Search Server or FAST Search for SharePoint) will automatically be used. You can then select the option to keep items on hold in place so they cannot be edited or deleted, or if you have configured a Content Organizer Send to location in Central Administration you can have content copied to another site and placed on hold
  • When searching and processing, the search will by default be scoped to the entire Site Collection and run with elevated permissions so all content can be discovered
  • In summary, SharePoint Server 2010 contains key features that make it an essential aspect of your eDiscovery strategy. With the new SharePoint Server 2010 capabilities you can easily apply proper retention policies for all content and make it easier to discover content if an eDiscovery event occurs. eDiscovery often prescribes tight deadlines for production. SharePoint 2010 helps you find the right content and deliver it faster.

    i everyone, I am Quentin Christensen and I work on document and records management functionality for SharePoint. Electronic discovery (commonly referred to as eDiscovery) is an area we are supporting with new set of capabilities in SharePoint Server 2010. In case you are not familiar with eDiscovery, it is the process of finding, preserving, analyzing and producing content in electronic formats as required by litigation or investigations. eDiscovery is an important concern for all of our customers and given that SharePoint has grown to be an integral part of collaboration, document, and records management for many organizations, we recognize the need to support the eDiscovery process for SharePoint content. Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 included a hold feature that could be used for eDiscovery, but it was scoped to the Records Center site template. With SharePoint Server 2010 the eDiscovery capabilities have been greatly expanded to provide more functionality and the power to use these features across your entire SharePoint deployment. In this post, I want to highlight three major improvements in SharePoint that support eDiscovery. You can: Manage holds and conduct eDiscovery searches on any site collection Use SharePoint Server Search or FAST Search for SharePoint out of box to search and process content Automatically copy eDiscovery search results to a separate repository for further analysis

  • The results indicate that "there are more cloud implementations within the enterprise than people were aware of," Jay Fry, vice president of marketing for the cloud computing division at CA Technologies, told eWEEK. The report indicates that IT administrators are starting to get some visibility on what the various groups within the organization are working on, he said. As more people begin to discuss the cloud within the enterprise, the visibility will continue to improve, said Fry.
  • In the past, there were "rogue deployments" that the company’s IT staff didn’t even know about, because the individual line of business was purchasing software-as-a-service offerings without involving IT.
  • Collaboration tools such as hosted e-mail, antivirus and spam filtering and Web conferencing software accounted for a bulk of cloud deployments, at 75 percent, according to the report
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • The primary incentive for initially going to the cloud is to trim costs, he said. While that result was expected, the report found that IT staff considered other benefits, such as agility and adaptability as soon as six months after deployment, said Fry.
  • Many large organizations are already active in cloud computing in some form and are planning more deployments, according to a CA Technologies study.

    "More than 80 percent of surveyed enterprises and 92 percent of the largest enterprises, have at least one cloud service, the report found. Additionally, more than half, or 52 percent, of organizations using the cloud claimed to have more than six cloud services."
