AIOps Best Practices for IT Teams & Leaders
What is AIOps & why does it matter for today’s enterprises? Gartner first coined the term AIOps in 2016 to describe an industry category for machine learning and analytics technology that enhances IT operations analytics. Learn how AIOps helps manage IT systems performance and improve customer experience.

AIOps is an umbrella term for underlying technologies, including Artificial Intelligence, Big Data Analytics and Machine Learning that automate the determination and resolution of IT issues in modern, distributed IT environments.

Here's a brief overview on how AIOps solution work:

  • AIOps data usually comes from different MELT sources.
  • Then, big data technologies aggregate and organize it, reduce noise, find patterns and isolate anomalies.
  • The AIOps automated resolution system resolves known issues and hands over the complicated scenarios to IT teams.

Learn from this whitepaper on what are the Best Practices IT Teams and IT Leaders should follow in implementing AIOps in their enterprise.

A New Roadmap for Network Configuration Management
Considering how current networks are changing, BackBox tackles the pressing need for a radical change in Network Configuration and/or Change Management (NCM/NCCM) procedures. It points out major flaws in conventional NCM techniques, such as their inability to scale and adapt to hybrid cloud architectures. BackBox is a platform that supports an API-driven, NetDevOps-inspired approach and provides a way to improve productivity. BackBox lets network teams optimize their NCM processes and be prepare
Organizations managing complicated network infrastructures and adjusting to hybrid cloud environments have several significant difficulties, which BackBox addresses. Important elements consist of:
  • Finding Disconnects: Scalability and hybrid cloud integration are two issues that traditional NCM approaches face.
  • Promising Solutions: BackBox proposes a NetDevOps-inspired, API-driven strategy to transform NCM procedures.
  • Benefits of Automation: Optimizing processes by using automated processes for OS upgrades, configuration backups, and compliance checks.
  • Strengthening Network Teams: Increasing productivity and preparedness for upcoming obstacles.
This significant strategy makes sure organizations prosper in constantly changing network environments and maximizes their chances of success in a constantly changing digital world. In today's quickly changing digital world, BackBox offers a comprehensive framework for optimizing network management techniques and ensuring sustainable development, from discovering disconnects to putting forth creative ideas and empowering network teams.
Connecticut Orthopaedics Transforms Endpoint Management and Security with IGEL
Teaming with IGEL allowed Connecticut Orthopaedics to manage the security and deployment of its Windows OS-based endpoints more efficiently and gain better visibility.
Connecticut Orthopaedics significantly improved its endpoint management and security by adopting IGEL’s solution. This allowed the healthcare provider to move Windows into a VDI environment, replacing Windows at the endpoint with IGEL OS for over 700 daily users with diverse needs. The transition to IGEL was initiated in April 2023 and fully deployed by August 2023. It was a smooth transition, thanks to the support from IGEL and the diligent work of the healthcare provider’s IT team. IGEL’s Preventative Security Model provided a secure, manageable, and scalable platform, enabling a stronger Zero Trust framework and streamlined endpoint management. The deployment included over 650 endpoints running IGEL OS. This transition has led to minimal end-user feedback, indicating a seamless change. It has allowed the healthcare provider to gain real-time analytics across its endpoints, enhancing its operational efficiency and security posture.

Zero Trust and Enterprise Data Backup
Cyberattacks and ransomware target backup data in 93% of incidents, while existing Zero Trust frameworks often overlook backup and recovery security. Zero Trust Data Resilience (ZTDR), developed by Numberline Security and Veeam, extends Zero Trust principles to data backup. The ZTDR framework includes segmentation, multiple data resilience zones, and immutable backup storage. This white paper offers practical steps for implementing ZTDR, which improves data protection, reduces security risk

Cyberattacks and ransomware target backup data in 93% of incidents. Despite being primary targets for ransomware and data exfiltration, existing Zero Trust frameworks often overlook the security of data backup and recovery systems.
 
Zero Trust Data Resilience (ZTDR) is an innovative model that extends Zero Trust principles to data backup and recovery. Developed through a collaboration between Numberline Security and Veeam, ZTDR builds on the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency's (CISA) Zero Trust Maturity Model (ZTMM).  
 
This framework provides a practical guide for IT and security teams to improve data protection, reduce security risk, and enhance an organization's cyber resilience.
 
The primary principles of ZTDR include:

  • Segmentation — Separation of Backup Software and Backup Storage to enforce least-privilege access, as well as to minimize the attack surface and blast radius.
  • Multiple data resilience zones or security domains to comply with the 3-2-1 Backup Rule and to ensure multi-layered security.
  • Immutable Backup Storage to protect backup data from modifications and deletions. Zero Access to Root and OS, protecting against external attackers and compromised administrators, is a must-have as part of true immutability. 

The white paper "Zero Trust and Enterprise Data Backup" details these principles and offers practical steps for implementation. 
 
What You'll Learn:

  • Security Enhancement: Core Zero Trust principles applied to data backup.
  • Implementation: Best practices for infrastructure segmentation and resilience zones.
  • Applications: Case studies on mitigating ransomware and cyber threats.
