October doesn't just bring cooler weather, Q4, and Halloween, it's also National Cybersecurity Awareness Month — the only month all year long any of us are allowed to talk about cybersecurity. 😉
It’s interesting to observe how encryption and network performance monitoring (NPM) have evolved over time. When I first entered the networking industry right out of college, many applications sent passwords over the network in clear text, unencrypted. Since just about everyone’s PC was wired back to a repeater (i.e., not a switch), we could observe each other’s traffic with free packet analyzers and laugh.
The digital transformation that many companies underwent in 2020 continued in 2021 at a rapid pace as the pandemic continued to impact the world. While many of my digital Top transformation trends predictions from a year ago were proven correct, others didn’t quite come to fruition and were displaced for more urgent and strategic needs as the pandemic persisted. What does this mean for 2022?
