According to the Global Data Protection Index Survey, more than 51% of the organizations are not fully confident their data stored in the cloud is protected against deletion and corruption.

Storing backup data in the cloud may also generate multiple hidden fees as well as raise concerns regarding service levels, availability, and control.

Join our webinar to learn how Dell EMC is helping organizations to build a cost-effective data protection strategy for the cloud environments, including:
· Highly efficient and secure backups to and within the cloud
· Cost-effective data protection of enterprise applications running on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure
· Natively tiered de-duplicated data sent directly to the cloud platforms, providing significantly lower TCO

About TR-42 Telecommunications Cabling Systems Committee:
The TR-42 Telecommunications Cabling Systems Committee develops and maintains voluntary telecommunications standards for telecommunications cabling infrastructure in user-owned buildings, such as commercial buildings, residential buildings, homes, data centers and industrial buildings. The generic cabling topologies, design, distances and outlet configurations as well as specifics for these locations are addressed.

The ANSI/TIA-942 Telecommunications Infrastructure Standard for Data Centers is developed by the TR-42.1 Generic and Premises Cabling Subcommittee. TR-42.1 develops and maintains cabling standards for generic customer-owned telecommunications networks. These standards are intended to specify open systems designed to support a wide variety of voice, data, video, and other low voltage, power-limited applications. TR-42.1 also develops and maintains telecommunications cabling standards for premises networks such as commercial buildings, data centers, building automation, etc. This Subcommittee specifies cabling system topology, architecture, design, installation, testing and performance requirements.

Reinforcement Learning (RL) is a field within AI that makes machines learn by trial-and-error. RL systems have improved enormously in the recent years, being able to master games like Space Invaders or Go.

However, we have many challenges ahead: How can we make RL systems that live in the real world, with real people? How can we make sure these systems remain stable and well-behaved?

In this talk we will explore these challenges and suggest a few ways forward to bring useful RL technology to people's daily lives.

As data is increasingly accessed and shared across geographic boundaries, a growing web of conflicting laws and regulations dictate where data can be transferred, stored, and shared, and how it is protected. The Object Management Group® (OMG®) and the Cloud Standards Customer Council (CSCC) recently completed a significant effort to analyze and document the challenges posed by data residency.
Data residency issues result from the storage and movement of data and metadata across geographies and jurisdictions. Attend this webinar to learn more about data residency:

•How it may impact users and providers of IT services (including but not limited to the cloud)
•The complex web of laws and regulations that govern this area
•The relevant aspects – and limitations -- of current standards and potential areas of improvement
•How to contribute to future work

Cyber Security requires organizations to analyze and correlate data derived from the measurement of the right metrics. Every CISO is searching for the best practices for turning metrics and reporting into meaningful data for 3 important data sharing levels within organizations. Managing metrics and reporting for Security Operations and Incident Response can be a time consuming and costly project.

In this webinar, our speakers will discuss how to strengthen and empower a security team’s ability to quickly assess and remediate security Incidents and data breaches.

Including:
• Review CISO’s guide for sharing SecOps and IR data with C-level, VPs, and Directors.
• Discover true priorities in breach reporting.
• Learn what organizations can do to improve the automated analysis of incidents.
• Understand the trends and benchmarks in security automation and orchestration to include metrics and reporting.
• How to orchestrate and automate processes and machine actions in order to mitigate damages.
