This webcast will focus on protecting data assets in enterprises while at the same time ensuring referential integrity for application testing using comprehensive data management strategy. As data in enterprises keep growing

* the costs for storage and IT resources keep increasing for application testing as well;
* it exposes enterprises to a constant risk of data privacy regulations.

In this session we will see how Solix Enterprise Data Management Suite (Solix EDMS) provides secure and rapid application testing that is built in partnership with Oracle and a seamless end-to-end integrated model for database subsetting, cloning and masking.

“On average 10% of applications in an unoptimized portfolio are candidates for retirement. An additional one-third can require migration or rationalization”. - Jim Duggan, Gartner analyst (Plan Legacy Application Retirements carefully, April 2009)

Application Retirement is part of Application Portfolio Management that must be undertaken on a continuing basis since applications often outlive their usefulness. However, one may need to retain and manage legacy data from such applications which are candidates for retirement.

During this webinar, you will learn how Solix EDMS Application Retirement along with Solix Application Retirement Managed Services can help organizations

* Target which applications to retire
* Decide which data to keep, for how long and for what purpose (compliance, litigation support, records management or business operations)
* Determine the access requirements
* Determine the optimal secure platform to retain such legacy data; and finally
* Calculate the benefits of retirement

Application Retirement is essentially about reducing costs: of hardware/software AMC, and people trained on legacy systems.

This Presentation covers the three essential ingredients of any business case for implementing database archiving functionality for an existing database application

* Cost reduction
* Productivity improvements
* Risk reduction

This Webcast shows how to compute the value for operational applications, for retired applications, and for using database archiving as part of an application renovation project. It also includes a list of participants who should be working together as a team to determine the worth of such projects.

During this webinar, you will learn how database archiving, when applied properly to an appropriate application can return huge value and reach ROI in a very short time.

“Application Retirement is emerging as a structured approach in application portfolio management. The costs associated with managing legacy applications can be significant – organizations must maintain expensive application operating environments simply because they need to retain application data. Extracting data from legacy applications in a simple and straightforward way while ensuring access to this data over time allows organizations to reduce costs and ensure compliance.” - Sheila Childs, Gartner’s Research Director of Storage Technologies and Strategies

Solix ExAPPS Industry's first Application Retirement appliance - is pre-built, pre-configured, pre-tested with all necessary software and hardware components - introduces simplicity to a complex problem. Customers with finite number of specific packaged and custom applications on distributed systems will find the appliance most appealing as it will allow automated repeatable process for multiple applications

During this webinar, you will learn how Solix ExAPPS - Industry's first Application Retirement Appliance - will help organizations to get a jump start on Application Retirement projects

Application retirement is a major paradigm shift toward holistically managing the enterprise application portfolio which allow companies to retire seldom-used applications to significantly cut hardware, storage and software maintenance costs in addition to indirect expenditures such as power, space, etc. Enterprises across a variety of industries are looking for ways to reduce IT expenditures

In this seminar we will talk about new innovations that will simplify and streamline the application retirement process, allowing for measurable ROI and reduced TCO. This seminar will also show you how to compute the ROI by adopting a process-oriented approach to retire legacy applications.

There is an old business adage that states information is power. These days it’s more accurate to say that information is power -- when it is secure and reliable.

Achieving profitability in a competitive global marketplace is a major priority for most businesses. Often this comes at the expense of maintaining effective controls over integrity and accountability within an organization. And even those companies that do try to establish these controls typically place this responsibility into the hands of individuals who have little, if any, visibility into the inner workings of the organization.

Identity management and governance has become a focal point for companies trying to meet regulatory and industry expectations around information integrity and accountability. The rapid emergence of Web-based technologies has forced businesses to adapt to a radically different marketplace and has led to the evolution of open business models. Open models encourage flexibility and ease of use – but they also expose an organization to risk.

Information is power and information security is more crucial now than ever. And whether it is the protection of proprietary technology, customer information or financial data, identity management should be a key component of any corporate security strategy.

In this month’s Perficient Perspectives we look at Identity Management:

- What is it?
- The three keys of an effective identity management strategy
- Business alignment
- Executive involvement
- Measurable results
- Identity management solutions
- Where does technology fit in?
- Why technology alone is not the answer
- How to assess your own level of corporate exposure to identity abuse and infrastructure vulnerabilities

Has your company ever lost a laptop?

If not, you’re lucky. The loss of one laptop has been disastrous for IT departments, exposing millions of dollars worth of sensitive data. Now, consider how many laptops are in your company and the amount of data on each – is it worth the risk to not secure every one?

Learn how to minimize these risks from Dr. Larry Ponemon of the Ponemon Institute. The world’s leading authority on information security will discuss the latest findings on the cost of data breaches and the most effective preventative measures.

Join us on Oct. 8th and find out:

The cost of a lost laptop, from data breach response to employee downtime
Why encryption is not always effective
How you can determine if sensitive data is accessed after device theft
How you can secure devices remotely using Software-as-a-Service and anti-theft technology
