Physical Security and Audit-Readiness at the Rack

As a growing volume of sensitive data increasingly floats across your cloud and virtualized infrastructure, it’s easy to think about security and compliance in non-physical terms. That’s because compliance mandates such as HIPAA, PCI, and GDPR require your organization to protect data no matter where it resides. And if an attacker breaches your environment through a phishing email or an unpatched vulnerability, there’s no telling where they can wind up as they probe laterally across your network.


Secure Switches Can Defend Against Cyber Attacks

The threat of cyber-attacks seems to reach a new all-time high daily, as cyber criminals continue to become better funded and more sophisticated in their efforts. In fact, a recent PWC report showed that the number of security incidents across all major industries rose by an unprecedented 38 percent. Conversely, data theft from utility companies tripled from 2014 to 2015 by an astonishing 234 percent. In light of these statistics and the rising number of attacks, many companies are left searching for a solution that will protect their vital data and defend against cyber-attacks.


Why Easy to Use PDUs will Help Your Data Center

With the rapid expansion of data centers creating highly complex IT infrastructures, it’s becoming more important than ever to find ways to increase the efficiency of day-to-day operations.  One of the most practical ways to achieve improved efficiency is through devices that are easy to use and easy to deploy.


Raritan’s PX PDUs, the Choice of Enterprise Data Centers

With the growing costs of power and increased uncertainty in power availability, energy conservation has become a major concern in the data center.  Increases in the demand of computing power to satisfy mission-critical applications along with the emergence of virtualization have had major effects on server density, making the need for an efficient energy management plan even more important. When using Raritan’s PX PDUs,  with the detailed knowledge of energy consumption gained from real-time monitoring within the data center, administrators can feel secure that they are making better, more energy-conscious decisions.


KVM Switches: What You Need to Know

At its core, a KVM switch is simply a piece of hardware that allows one person to control multiple computers using a single keyboard, monitor, and mouse from a centralized location. The earliest examples of KVM switches on record actually pre-date the invention of the mouse itself, which is why they were originally used as testing tools for motherboard and production server quality tests.

With the advent of mouse interfaces like PS/2, USB, Sun, and Mac, however, the concept itself evolved into something much more meaningful than those original applications. For many organizations, KVM switches act as the backbone of their entire technological infrastructure - even if not everyone has necessarily come to realize that simple fact quite yet.
