Webcast: Protect Your MSCS Clusters with Offsite Data Replication 2006-09-15 15:34:17 CA XOsoft

Shared storage clusters such as Microsoft Cluster Service (MSCS) clusters provide excellent protection from server and application failures. But clusters represent just one layer of resiliency in your data protection strategy. They can't defend your data against many other types of threats, including:

Virus outbreaks

Storage device failures

Power or cooling outages

Fire, floods, or other disasters

Human error

Offsite data replication covers these and other contingencies, but how can it protect your MSCS clusters themselves? That is the question that's explored in this TechRepublic Webcast, sponsored by CA XOsoft and now available on demand.

You'll hear from Bruce Johnson, Administrator of Mail & Directory Services at Boston Properties, one of the largest office property management firms in the United States. To maintain its reputation for being extremely responsive to its tenants' needs, Boston Properties must ensure that its clustered Exchange servers are up and running 24x7. And the way Johnson achieves that is by using CA XOsoft's off-site, cluster-aware, high-availability solution with built-in continuous data protection (CDP) technology.

You'll also hear from Eric Jackson, Strategic Product Advisor to CA XOsoft, who explains how CA XOsoft's replication solution closes the gaps in protection left by MSCS shared storage clusters-without the need to make any configuration changes to your existing clusters.

The Five Keys to Ensuring Customer Data Privacy 2006-09-08 01:00:28 Symantec

Data privacy is fast emerging as the biggest challenge for compliance and security officers. According to a FTC report published in January 2006, the Commission received 255,565 identity theft complaints in 2005. More than 20 states have enacted legislation along the lines of California SB 1386, that impose strict penalties for breaches involving personal information. Much of this data resides in relational databases. Traditional security methods are inadequate for protecting sensitive information stored in databases, especially from attacks that are launched from within the perimeter. This webcast will present key best practices for protecting the database infrastructure from external attacks as well as insider abuse.
