In this article, I will show you how an ordinary office laptop at the hardware level can be protected from various kinds of attacks, especially those related to the seizure or theft of the device, and after reading it, I want you to look carefully at your corporate laptops and answer yourself – what of the above do you have? Many "security officers" do not pay due attention to the laptop hardware, considering that security is limited at the level of antivirus, group policies and ...

A story about how once a protected transformer laptop forgot the safe word and was subjected to all possible tortures in our test lab. He died, but the life in him was not extinguished. The industry of secure laptops is developing along with the growing demand for such devices from medium-sized businesses: today, on a livestock farm, in a woodworking shop, on a drilling platform, and even in a geoloc tent, everything is computerized, and the concept of IoT + Edge (read our article about the ...

Well, the time has come for more or less affordable switches for 2.5 Gigabit networks with copper cable and 10G on optics. In this model, even 1-gigabit ports are forwarded to a common matrix, which is why even on small packets high speed is maintained. And you know that 10 Gigabit Ethernet was introduced back in 2006, and was created mainly for file servers of small companies, and after a decade and a half, it still remains a novelty for many consumers in the small business environment. The ...

The amount of data stored in the world not only continues to grow, but is growing faster than predicted. It was expected that the share of data stored on flash and solid state drives would increase, while the amount of data stored on hard drives and tape would decrease. However, today it is clear that all three technologies continue to evolve simply because they require a lot of storage capacities. Where are we going to store this much data? Thanks to engineers and programmers, the capacity ...

Synology now has a free solution to back up and restore all of its infrastructure, including virtual machines, desktops, Windows servers, and NAS. We tested all its features, measured the speed and evaluated the pros and cons of this package. In 2010, the founder of Veeam Software, Ratmir Timashev, said in one of his interviews that the main thing for backups is the recovery process, how fast, easy and reliable it is. Today Veeam software solutions have become the de facto standard in large ...

In the infrastructure of any modern enterprise, a special place should be given to data storage and backup systems. In case of failure, human error or for maintaining archives, but the data must be reliably protected from loss, prying eyes or natural disaster. In this article, we will explain what hardware is used to copy data in different cases. The active development of information technologies, which began at the very beginning of the 21st century and does not plan to stop in the coming ...

Usually, the user trusts his information to a single hard drive and backup. This approach is absolutely inappropriate for enterprises where data loss is equal to business loss.
