Many large enterprises are moving important applications from traditional physical servers to virtualized environments, such as VMware vSphere in order to take advantage of key benefits such as configuration flexibility, data and application mobility, and efficient use of IT resources.
Realizing these benefits with business critical applications, such as SQL Server or SAP can pose several challenges. Because these applications need high availability and disaster recovery protection, the move to a virtual environment can mean adding cost and complexity and limiting the use of important VMware features. This paper explains these challenges and highlights six key facts you should know about HA protection in VMware vSphere environments that can save you money.

Research finds PAM solutions are too complex with 68% of organizations paying for “wasted features” that are rarely used. A global survey of 400 IT and security executives conducted in January 2023, by Keeper Security in partnership with TrendCandy Research, reveals an overwhelming industry desire for Privileged Access Management (PAM) solutions that are easy to deploy and maintain.
The findings show that traditional PAM solutions are falling far short, largely because they are too complex to implement and use. An overwhelming 84% of IT leaders said they want to simplify their PAM solution in 2023. In the current high-risk security climate, it is imperative that all organizations secure their privileged credentials, privileged accounts, and privileged sessions to protect their crown jewels. However, many traditional PAM solutions are failing to provide their intended value outside of these core use cases, because deployment is either too complex, too cost-prohibitive, or both. In the era of remote work, organizations need agile identity security solutions that can protect against cybersecurity threat vectors by monitoring, detecting, and preventing unauthorized privileged access to critical resources.
Keeper Security, a leading innovator in privileged access management, wanted to better understand how IT leaders are thinking about PAM, deploying their PAM solutions, and streamlining their PAM implementations. Keeper commissioned an independent research firm to survey 400 IT and data security leaders in North America and Europe about their strategies and plans for PAM in 2023.

The "Top 7 Trends in Endpoint Security for 2023" report provides valuable insights into the evolving landscape of endpoint protection. It emphasizes the increasing importance of Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA), which operates on the principle that no user or device should be inherently trusted, thereby enhancing security through strict access controls and continuous monitoring.
The report also highlights the shift towards cloud-native endpoint security, offering scalability and real-time protection, especially vital with the rise of remote work. Additionally, the adoption of thin-managed operating systems is discussed, noting their role in reducing attack surfaces by securely connecting to cloud-based resources.
The integration of Extended Detection and Response (XDR) platforms is presented as a means to streamline security operations by consolidating data from various sources. Furthermore, the report underscores the significance of a human-centric approach to security, advocating for comprehensive employee training and fostering a culture of security awareness.
Advancements in Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solutions are also covered, highlighting features like proactive threat hunting and automated responses. Lastly, the report discusses the role of security orchestration and automation in improving incident response times and operational efficiency.
