This new reality presents several IT and data management challenges. With remote teams, file sharing can be cumbersome and slow down productivity due to poor bandwidth. Moreover, if your organization lacks a centralized data management system, storage usage will increase due to unnecessary redundancies. You’ll also risk losing critical data without centralized backup and recovery. With

For IT and data managers, this presents several conundrums. To ensure that your data is secure, every device and platform needs to be backed up. However, since all those different platforms might be compatible with specific backup solutions, you might be forced to integrate multiple products from separate vendors, which leads to greater complexity –

In this article, we’ll help you choose the right one for your needs and business. The first thing to know is that not all private clouds or file servers are made alike. At first, file servers were simple repositories for storing data within an office. In

More and more enterprises are employing bug bounty programs to make their products and services more secure and reliable. The concept of this program is to crowdsource information security from researchers who report security vulnerabilities that may incur irretrievable damage and are previously unknown to potentially affected companies. Those who submit vulnerability reports which are later validated by security analysts can receive monetary rewards. This concept starts to gain ground, and the world’s tech giants, such as Microsoft, Google, and Facebook launched similar programs aimed at enlisting the help of researchers across the globe in finding out potential security flaws that

Revealing both have valuable solutions to offer. If you Google “Public vs. Private Cloud Debate,” you’ll most likely find articles dating back years boldly claiming that the debate is over (like this). However, if that’s really the case, then why do so many companies still wrangle with the right setup for their needs in 2018?

A growing trend towards putting directory service onto the cloud as a unified cloud-based AD/LDAP is allowing IT admins to manage cloud and on-premises servers efficiently and flexibly. As more and more clients are adopting hybrid cloud infrastructure to store and manage their data, Google Cloud Identity therefore made a forward-thinking move by creating a brand new feature called Secure LDAP. This new feature can also integrate user accounts seamlessly to allow Synology NAS to form closer ties with Google Cloud Identity and G Suite in addition to exchanging data. With Secure LDAP offered through Cloud Identity and G Suite, Google

Cloud computing services are an integral part of many businesses and they handle communication, collaboration, and file storage. Because of the convenience cloud computing provides, many companies worldwide resort to Software as Service (SaaS) to manage their daily operations. Also known as on-demand software, it’s hosted centrally in the cloud in which business applications are delivered. Since SaaS offers plenty of advantages, such as lower costs, easy setup, and a high level of accessibility and scalability, SaaS deployments in business management are on the rise. Microsoft 365 has over 120 million users and saw 41% revenue growth in the company’s
