whitepaper Protecting Sensitive Data on Ethernet WAN: How to Reduce Cost and Complexity of Network Security2008-12-08 SafeNet
  Universal connectivity is essential in today's complex business environments. Driven by the convergence of data, voice, and video over sophisticated and expanding networks, growth in demand for bandwidth is outpacing Moore's Law to supply sufficient throughput. To meet this increasing demand, organizations are looking not only for larger network pipes but also for finer granularity and more efficient ways to use existing bandwidth. As a result, more and more companies have been considering native Ethernet to carry data over Wide Area Networks (WANs). Ethernet delivers highly scalable granularity - from 1 Mbps to 10 Gbps - while providing lower per-port capital expenditures than traditional WAN technologies.

whitepaper Why your Firewall, VPN, and IEE 802.11i Aren't Enough to Protect Your Network2008-11-03 Hewlett-Packard (HP)
  Like any network technology, wireless local area networks (WLANs) need to be protected from security threats. Though recent developments in IEEE standards have been designed to help ensure privacy for authenticated WLAN users, WLAN clients and enterprise infrastructure can still be vulnerable to a variety of threats that are unique to WLANs.

whitepaper Business Benefits of Policy Based Data De-Duplication2008-11-03 EMC
  Organizations of all sizes are faced with the demands of storing more data, including multiple copies of the same or similar data, for longer periods of time. The result is an expanding data footprint that results in increased IT resource management costs to support and sustain given levels of application and information Quality of Service (QoS) delivery.

An approach to providing relief from the pressures, costs and complexities associated with managing data protection for an expanding data footprint including reducing the amount of data transmitted over wide area network (WAN) links is data de-duplication (de-dupe).

Data de-dupe reduces the impact of expanding data footprints by optimizing storage and network bandwidth capacity used to store protected data, enabling improved utilization and more information to be processed in a given time frame.

Read this StorageIO analyst paper from EMC to see how policy-based de-duplication can help boost your storage utilization rates while improving application performance.

whitepaper Using NetApp SnapMirror Async With Cisco Wide Area Application Services for Data Center Replication2008-10-24 Cisco Systems
  Many enterprises use NetApp SnapMirror Async for data protection, replication, and business continuance over a wide range of distances and transports. By copying only changed blocks, SnapMirror optimizes the use of network resources. Data ONTAP data deduplication can further reduce traffic by transmitting only nonredundant blocks in their entirety. Cisco Wide Area Application Services (WAAS) optimizes the performance of many different applications by transparently mitigating network constraints. With the release of software version 4.0.19, Cisco WAAS adds support for optimizing data center to data center replication using SnapMirror. With Cisco WAAS, SnapMirror can replicate data faster and more efficiently to meet SLAs without costly network upgrades.

whitepaper Multicast - What Is It?2008-10-03 Global Knowledge
  When multiple receivers are required to get the same data at approximately the same time, multicast is a more efficient way of delivering data than unicast. A unicast packet has a single source IP address and a single destination IP address. A multicast packet has a single source IP, but it has a multicast destination IP address that will be delivered to a group of receivers. This white paper explains the advantages of multicast over unicast delivery.

whitepaper Wireless WAN/LAN Solutions for Schools Using WiMax, WiFi and Secured Access and Content2008-10-01
  Wireless Wide Area Network (WAN) and Local Area Network (LAN) technologies provide revolutionary savings and flexibility for regionally distributed organizations, like schools. Network access can be provisioned to a whole school building in just a few hours. An integrated private network, spanning a city or county, can be erected in a week. The cost savings justify the effort within a few months. And, if desired, the school network can be extended wirelessly to the student at home. This paper discusses the technologies and components that will revolutionize a school district's touch to its schools, faculty and students.

whitepaper Revolutionize Branch IT Services With Windows Server on WAAS2008-09-30 Cisco Systems
  As branch offices grow in number and size to address new business opportunities, continuous and rapid access to critical applications and services is paramount. The challenge many businesses face is to address this need without increasing costs. The first solution of this kind, Windows Server on Wide Area Application Services (WAAS), combines two powerful technologies from Cisco and Microsoft into a jointly developed, validated, supported branch IT optimization solution. This webcast shows how Windows Server on WAAS can help to lower branch IT costs by better utilization of assets; increase branch IT architecture flexibility by letting administrator decide where applications should reside - at the branch or in the data center; and optimize branch IT performance and reliability with WAN optimization technologies.
