Protecting Sensitive Data in Non-Production Environments
Speaker: Joshua Alpern, VP Sales Engineering, Applimation Where: Your PC When: Wednesday, May 21, 2008 Time: 10:30 AM CT 17:30 CET (Amsterdam, Paris)
Information security has emerged as one of the biggest challenges facing organizations. Data and privacy custodians like Chief Information Officers (CIO), Chief Security Officers (CSO), and General Counsels are under tremendous regulatory pressure to protect data from the inside out. Recent years have seen numerous high profile cases of data breaches at public corporations, government institutions and privately held companies.
Any organization not proactively taking steps to protect its sensitive information risks legal consequences, loss of trust, negative publicity, and damage to its reputation. This webinar will take a closer look at what organizations can do to protect sensitive information in their non-production environments.
Best Practices for Preventing Data Leakage from SAP Non-Production Systems
When: Thursday, May 22, 2008 Time: 10:30 AM CST / 17:30 CET (Amsterdam, Paris) Speaker: Joshua Alpern, VP Sales Engineering, Applimation Where: Your PC
There is a growing need to protect sensitive business data across the enterprise. With a number of well-publicized and costly thefts creating tremendous legal liability and bad publicity for the affected organizations, businesses have grown increasingly sophisticated in protecting their production systems.
An important tier of computer data remains unprotected by today’s new security procedures — non-production systems used for in-house development, testing and training purposes. These environments leverage "real data" to test applications, such as social security numbers, bank records and financial documents.
What You Should Know About Retiring Legacy Applications
When: Monday, June 23, 2008 Time: 10:30 AM CST Speaker: Joshua Alpern, VP Sales Engineering, Applimation Where: Your PC
Applimation Informia Archive provides a powerful and effective solution for legacy application retirement. It retires legacy data to save you enormous costs – such as software and database licenses, human expertise, maintenance payments, etc. – associated with the legacy application. Informia Archive’s out-of-the-box integration with leading storage platforms and its e-discovery portal ensure that your organization has ongoing access to the legacy data without having to rely on the older technology.
This webinar will take a closer look at how organizations can protect themselves from future, unforeseen operational and compliance requirements and how to preserve legacy data and maintain accessibility to it.

New Use Cases for Siebel Application Archiving
Speaker: Joshua Alpern, VP Sales Engineering Where: Your PC When: On Demand
Data growth issues are a rising concern for organizations of all sizes. At the same time, business policies and regulations require organizations to retain structured and unstructured data indefinitely. Storing increasing amounts of data on production systems is a recipe for poor performance no matter how much hardware is added or an application is tuned. Organizations need a way to manage this growth effectively.
You will learn the best practices in data archiving for Siebel applications which will enable you to:
1.
Improve production environment performance
2.
Fully retire inactive data to office storage devices
3.
Reduce the size and resource requirements of the production environment
4.
Archive and purge inactive data
5.
Improve backup and recovery time requirements
Learn How to Create Smaller Copies of Production and Enable Enterprise Data Privacy
Speaker: Joshua Alpern, VP Sales Engineering, Applimation Where: Your PC When: On Demand
Organizations maintaining multiple non-production application environments face two daunting challenges:
Large storage footprints
Unprotected sensitive information
Traditionally, IT personnel create a full size of production for every non-production environment. Usually this is an inefficient use of storage space as development and testing teams do not require a significant amount of data to accomplish their objectives. Compounding this problem is the presence of sensitive data in every non-production copy. Indeed, with every additional copy, the risk of a data breach increases.
In this webinar, you will hear Joshua Alpern, VP Sales Engineering, discuss how Applimation’s Informia Subset product creates space efficient, non-production copies that contain only data necessary to the task at hand. Key trends on data security and threats that enterprises face when supporting test and development environments will also be addressed.
Archiving Your PeopleSoft Campus Solution Environment
Speaker: Joshua Alpern, VP Sales Engineering, Applimation Where: Your PC When: On demand
Higher education institutions are increasingly looking to information
technology (IT) to improve students’ experience, cut costs, drive efficiencies,
and achieve regulatory compliance. Over the past decade, many institutions
replaced inefficient manual processes and aging systems with off-the-shelf
enterprise resource planning, human resources and student administration
applications. However today, these very same institutions face the dual
challenges of managing the exponential data growth within these enterprise applications.
In this session, you will learn:
1.
The different methods of application archiving
2.
The advantages and challenges of each archiving method
3.
The importance of e-discovery and it's relation to archiving
4.
How to accommodate legal holds in your archiving strategy
5.
The benefits of a multi-tiered archiving architecture

Protecting Private Information: Addressing the Challenge in Higher Education Institutions
Speaker: Joshua Alpern, VP Sales Engineering, Applimation Where: Your PC When: On Demand
Protecting sensitive data is a significant challenge for any organization that collects and stores information about individuals. Institutions of higher education are especially susceptible to this challenge as student information accumulates year after year. Regulatory compliance standards such as FERPA, also put pressure on educational institutions to protect student education records. Consequences of noncompliance can be severe if data is lost or compromised.
Production enterprise applications at universities and colleges that store this sensitive data have robust security models that restrict access to authorized users. However, non-production application environments (used for development and testing purposes) are often much less secure despite containing the same sensitive data. These non-production environments therefore represent a particular vulnerability for any organization trying to protect sensitive information.
In this session you will learn how to effectively protect these non-production environments using a proven, automated software solution. You will also learn how to adhere to regulatory compliance standards by efficiently provisioning production and non-production systems that comply with privacy requirements.
