How to get the most out of your IT infrastructure?
Modern IT infrastructures, composed of diverse hardware and a collection of purchased and developed software, can misbehave in many ways. The use of proper diagnostics approaches and tools is the better way to ensure that you will treat the cause and not the symptom of the disease.
IT infrastructures often resemble to patchworks, composed of various pieces of hardware and software that don’t fit together very well. This is the cause of many performance problems and inefficiencies, and complicates the diagnostics.
A well-designed IT architecture is the best remedy against unsatisfactory system behviour.
Security is about protecting your assets against accidental or malicious misuse or loss. And security is only as strong as the weakest link of the chain of your security controls.
The only valid approach to security is to establish a security policy, identifying all your assets, the threats against these assets and the controls to put in place to protect the assets.
Keep in mind that your enemy for your data security is not always who you think he might be!! Can you afford taking immeasurable risk that can threaten the survival of your whole business at any time without previous warning ?
