CorSource and VASCO Partner on Identity Assurance Solutions for Cloud Security, Mobility and Regulatory Compliance for Next Generation Corporate IT Networks in the U.S.


Portland, Ore. (PRWEB) August 08, 2012

CorSource Technology Group today announced that it has partnered with VASCO Data Security International, Inc. (Nasdaq: VDSI) (http://www.vasco.com) to jointly solve the growing identity assurance challenges that organizations face when dealing with Cloud security, mobility and regulatory compliance issues. By adding VASCOs products to its offerings, CorSource can identify assurance solutions for the next generation of corporate IT networks.

We are glad to reinforce our U.S. channel with a leading player such as CorSource, said Jan Valcke, VASCOs President and COO. Together, we can make corporate networks and the cloud more secure.

The channel partnership will deliver on solutions for companies as they address such issues as identity and data protection concerns when moving to a cloud-based architecture, and security issues resulting from the new mobile workforce. The solutions are also ideally suited for companies that are dealing with employee productivity and loyalty with the bring-your-own-devices (BYOD) phenomenon, and that are wondering how to securely extend applications on new platforms.

Security is a big issue when it comes to mobile, Cloud and other compliance issues, says Andrew Hermann, CorSource Chief Marketing Officer. By joining VASCOs best-of-breed authentication technology with proven consulting services from CorSource, we can leverage our individual strengths as a single trusted advisor and together identify assurance solutions for the next generation of corporate IT networks.

ShoreGroup Announces Optimized CaseSentry Virtual Deployment Profile for Management of Cloud Services

New York, NY. (PRWEB) June 12, 2012

NEW YORK, NY. June 12, 2012 ShoreGroup, Inc., a premier professional services and software solutions firm, today announced the availability of an optimized virtual CaseSentry Systems Management deployment profile giving service providers greater scalability and flexibility in cloud management capacity. ShoreGroups virtual CaseSentry (vCS) management architecture allows for multi-tenant deployment that combines the benefits of true data segregation and security with seamless growth as service providers grow their clientele. Through integration to ShoreGroups FieldWatch management console, service providers have a multi-tenancy aggregation endpoint for centralized incident management. With the new virtual deployment profile the processor requirement per instance is reduced to as low as 500 MHz while reduced data store of call detail records and operational metrics is supported. The combination enables a higher density of CaseSentry instances to reside on each server, thereby reducing the physical server count, power consumption and related cost.

The new virtualized CaseSentry deployment profile also includes the full integration of Advanced Logic Profiles (ALPs) available in a traditional CaseSentry system. CaseSentry ALPs are a set of patented elements performing stateful processing on millions of simultaneous, complex systems and network management flows to determine the precise root cause of an incident. Traditional event driven management platforms lack stateful monitoring and cannot accurately process duplicate events, out-of-order events, and long time periods between related events, which results in improper modeling of complex application behavior causing both false-positive and false-negative results when chaining together assurance logic. Incorporation of ALPs in the virtualized CaseSentry deployment profile provides the effective management and visibility that service providers require to maintain the highest level of availability within their hosted and cloud environments.

By taking advantage of the optimized virtual CaseSentry deployment profile, service providers supporting complex unified communications and contact center services can take advantage of stateful flow processing to profitably support Day 2 or Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offerings, said Christos Klardie, ShoreGroups Director of Contact Center Engineering. In this CaseSentry deployment model, service providers get the best of both worlds, a small footprint with powerful query and analysis capability providing the insight that operations personnel require.

Saugatuck Technology Announces the 2nd Annual Cloud Business Summit

Westport, CT (PRWEB) June 12, 2012

Saugatuck Technology, the leading subscription research and business strategy consulting firm focused on the Cloud, today announced the date of its second annual Cloud Business Summit, to be held on November 14, 2012 at the Westin Times Square in New York City.

As a follow-up to last years highly successful Summit, this years conference will again bring together CIOs, CTOs and senior business leaders from mid-to-large enterprises from across a range of industries to explore how they can and are realizing value from the Business Cloud.

A key theme at this years event will be the emergence of the new Master Architecture what Saugatuck is calling “CMSA” (as in Cloud, Mobile, Social and Analytics). Unlike Master Architectures of the past, where a single technology has dominated (e.g., mainframes, PCs, internet), today’s new Master Architecture leverages multiple technologies and platforms, and loosely-coupled approaches, to unlock previously untapped business value. In this environment, innovation is clearly on the rise, as companies accelerate investments in support of a evolved vision for business computing what Saugatuck is calling the Boundary-free Enterprise.

Saugatuck is pleased to announce that both SAP and IBM have returned as Platinum sponsors in 2012. New event partners this year include Dimension Data and Progress Software as Gold sponsors, OrangeScape as a Silver sponsor, and Information Management and Sand Hill Group as Media sponsors. Saugatuck has assembled a rich mix of senior business and information technology executives who will participate as speakers in the event, including Rich Roseman, VP and CIO at News Corp., Michael Lemberger, VP at American Express, Gary Lynch, Managing Director at Marsh, and Andrew Stokes, Chief Scientist at Deutsche Bank AG, among others.

We are delighted to announce our second annual Cloud Business Summit, shared Saugatuck Technology founder and CEO Bill McNee. Similar to last year, the Summit again brings together approximately 150 senior business and IT leaders in an intimate, senior executive-level forum to discuss the issues of the day. However, the focus this year will not only be on the growing influence of the Cloud, but related technologies as well including Mobile, Social, Advanced Analytics and Integration and how they are collectively helping to reshape the business computing landscape, added McNee. Our goal is to provide a powerful networking environment for the conference delegates to learn firsthand from their peers and Saugatuck about how large enterprises are applying Cloud and related technologies, platforms and solutions to their advantage, and building winning business strategies.

Senior IT Executives and Business Strategists, who wish to request an invitation, or to learn more about the program, should visit the Cloud Business Summit website at http://www.cloudbusinesssummit.com, or call +1.203.454.3900.

Vaultize Announces Private Cloud Deployment Option Powered by OpenStack


Mountain View, CA (PRWEB) June 18, 2012

Vaultize (http://www.vaultize.com) announced the availability of OpenStack-powered private cloud deployment option to enterprise customers. With this launch, customers now get another deployment option in addition to Vaultizes public cloud (hosted in Rackspace), virtual private cloud (hosted with any cloud provider of customers choice) or Cloud-in-a-box purpose-built appliance.

Last month, Vaultize became the first data protection & sync vendor in the world to launch an enterprise-grade appliance for backup, sync and sharing. Cloud-in-a-box is an integrated platform with a combination of enterprise-grade hardware and Vaultize cloud software.

“With the private deployment option, we take our Vaultize cloud technology, marry it with our customers infrastructure and essentially build a scalable and flexible Vaultize private cloud based on OpenStack,” said Ankur Panchbudhe, CTO and Co-founder of Vaultize. This would allow our customers to easily scale up with their growth by provisioning the resources dynamically and only when required.

While most other backup solutions perform encryption at the server, Vaultize encrypts data at source before it leaves the device. Vaultize is the first backup solution in the world to do both enterprise-grade encryption and de-duplication together at source. Now with private cloud deployment, businesses can even backup roaming laptops and remote offices without having to use VPN.

In addition to backup and sync between user devices, Vaultizes Group Sync and Sharing over Web features – that provide Dropbox-like file sharing and synchronization across users with enterprise-grade security, control and centralized administration are also available with the private cloud option with no extra cost.
