IT as a force for good – Security in your digital workspace

January 11, 2019 Frederiek Vanhoornick 0

How technology can help against accidental data leakage?   This week an article caught my attention: Somebody was able to steal an external disk. This disk contained backup data of autopsy reports related to the bombing on March 22th, 2016.  https://www.expatica.com/be/news/autopsy-reports-from-brussels-attacks-stolen-official-92660/   So, for me a  couple of questions raised instantly! How is it possible that he can just enter the office? How is it possible that the doctor could save sensitive data to a personal/external disk? Both questions are about security! The first one could be solved just by installing badge readers at the door and an automatic lock And off course some common sense by just closing the door 🙂 The second question is more up my alley […]

The most of the customers that I talk to have some sort of project going on and they always have splendid work titles. The new workplace Workplace of the future Future Flexible Devices Any application, any device, anywhere, any time But, is the digital workplace a VDI solution? Is it Published Applications? Is it when we can work on any device? Isn’t the future, now? Let’s get back to the basics on how a workplace is delivered I think if we look at how we delivered a workplace in the past, we can fairly say that IT used to be simple. –    Same corporate image for everybody –    Secure it, lock it down –    Issue with the […]

REVIEW: Architecting EUC Solutions

June 26, 2016 Kim Bottu 0

Each year I order a couple of books even though I have no idea if they will be books which contain content I can actually use. The reasons to buy these books varies: The title might look promising, there is a lot of buzz about a book or it can be as plain and simple as me liking the cover of a book.

After having read Architecting EUC Solutions I would say this book is quite the opposite to me, an EUC compendium ‘par […]
