Cornell Lab of Ornithology Pairs Dell Servers With Intel Processor Technology, and Dell EqualLogic Storage to Save Six Figures | 2009-10-01 | Dell |
| Cornell Lab of Ornithology needed a consistent backup and disaster recovery solution to protect terabytes of critical data amassed by researchers to further conservation and explore the biodiversity of the planet. Server sprawl also threatened the efficiency of IT operations. The Lab consolidated multiple backup systems on Dell EqualLogic iSCSI SANs for data protection and disaster recovery solutions that provide full recoverability of data. It also virtualized servers with VMware and Dell PowerEdge servers with Intel Xeon processors to eliminate server sprawl and improve manageability and efficiency.

Whorton Insurance Reduces Staff Time for Data Protection by 83% With Solutions From Dell and Symantec | 2009-10-01 | Dell |
| At Whorton Insurance Services, managing data protection was consuming most of the company's operations manager's nights and weekends. Even after Whorton virtualized most of its servers and began backing up to disk, problems persisted. Verifying backups was a challenge. Through-host backups of virtual machines sometimes stretched into the morning, slowing network performance. To ease the burden on its operations manager and avoid adding IT staff resources, Whorton purchased a Dell PowerVault DL2000 powered by Symantec integrated data protection appliance. Backups are now automated, and virtual machines and Microsoft application data are continuously protected with granular recovery technology. Virtual machine backups are now performed off-host, with low or no performance impact.

Regulatory Compliance: Protecting PCI Systems and Data | 2009-09-15 | CoreTrace |
| The Payment Card Industry (PCI) computer systems are continually under attack due to the importance of the information they protect. In response to this threat, the PCI has produced an excellent series of process and security tool requirements known as the Data Security Standard (DSS). The DSS identifies a series of principles and accompanying requirements that are critical to the integrity of the industry's computer systems. The standard takes a multi-faceted approach to protecting payment card information to include securing the systems the data resides within, controlling access to the systems and cardholder data, and protecting the cardholder data itself.

Small Business Strategies to Limit the Risk and Affects of Data Loss: Preventing Unplanned Downtime and Business Failure | 2009-09-12 | NaviSite |
| As a business owner or IT professional, one understands how crucial data is to the health of company. No matter what field one is in, today it is almost impossible to do business without having an Internet presence and an up-to-date website. Moreover, most businesses today, from the largest corporations with data sensitive systems to the smallest business operating with a single computer, store their most vital and irreplaceable business records electronically. Storing valuable files, applications, and email archives in-house may be costing one more money than one should be spending. And in most cases, storing data and building data protection solutions in-house may leave important data vulnerable to theft, malicious attacks, and in worst case scenarios data loss.
