The What, Why and How to Employ NAC to Apply Guest Networking, BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) and Endpoint Security Policies.
Many of today's endpoints are neither known nor protected. According to Gartner, enterprises are only aware of 80 percent of the devices on their network. Those 20 percent of unknown devices are inside the perimeter of the network, are unmanaged and provide users with access. They are small, varied and highly mobile, and they are loaded with their own applications, can act as WAPs, and often contain outdated firmware or are jailbroken. Even as the devices are accessing personal applications on the web, they are also accessing corporate resources such as e-mail-all from the very same unmanaged devices, which have not been vetted by the security organization. Smartphones, notebooks, netbooks, iPads, e-readers, gaming consoles and more-the list of personal devices attempting access to employer networks seems to grow every day in what's come to be known as the BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) era in networking.

Protecting confidential data while keeping mobile users productive.
The terms Data Leak Prevention (DLP) and Container are
beginning to dominate the mobile management
conversation. Over the past few years great strides have been
made in providing the tools and solutions that offer
management and security for mobile devices; both for devices
the enterprise owns and those that employees own.
While these solutions generally meet the need to secure the
device, they have been lacking in some of the more
sophisticated security aspects that are commonplace in laptop
and distributed network deployments. Specifically lacking are
the robust DLP controls common in laptop management
solutions.

The technology industry is constantly changing. Usually, it evolves along a progression of somewhat predictable lines. But every 20 years or so, a sea change shakes its very foundation. Tried-and-true practices that underpinned the previous model may no longer apply. It happened, for example when our industry transitioned from the mainframe to a client/server model. That change required a rethinking of the IT model from top to bottom.

UEM is not limited to PCs, tablets and smartphones. Smart devices, broadly grouped as part of the IoT, will increasingly become included in UEM. Devices such as Apple TVs, printers and smartwatches are identifiable examples of IoT devices managed by EMM tools. However, not all IoT objects will fall under the realm of EMM tools. Some devices may be managed directly by manufacturers. Other types of devices will have proprietary management tools. And many devices will not need to be managed at all. However, it is clear that the diversity and number of devices will continue to grow, and IT organizations must be ready.

Convenience is absolutely critical to succeeding in e-commerce. Any glitches along the path to purchase potentially result in a lost sale. That's one reason we think Apple Pay's new mobile payment feature that uses a fingerprint is going to be a game changer. Its another step in reducing hurdles to online buying. You see it, you select it, you pay with your finger. What could be more convenient?
Not interested in Apple Pay? Or unable to use it? At the very least, make sure customers that shop on multiple devices are recognized, no matter which device they log into. Giving them access to their stored information will make for a much smoother checkout.

Consumers are No Longer Predictable, and their Path to Purchase is No Longer Linear…
A decade ago, you had a fairly straightforward understanding of how your customers moved through their path to purchase. It was linear. Predictable. And consistent. But, the rapid increase of mobile and ecommerce channels has diffused the consumer’s journey into a labyrinth of shopping options. And, these consumers are now learning more, engaging faster and expecting greater value, convenience, and hyper-relevant offers catered specifically to their needs. How you respond to this change will either accelerate or isolate your brand from the market.

Does your website load in two seconds or less? If not, you could be disappointing nearly half of your customers. According to Kissmetrics, 47 percent of e-commerce users expect websites to load in less than two seconds – and nearly a quarter of them will abandon your website entirely if it takes longer than four seconds. Additionally, 50 percent of customers shop on their mobile phones. In other words, your website needs to load fast and be optimized or your customers will leave.
The reality is that an e-commerce company can increase revenue by up to 7 percent just by making the load time one second faster. So, how can your company improve its site performance and make it faster?
The best practices outlined in this whitepaper can reduce your site’s loading time, improve your user experience, and ultimately increase your company’s revenue.
