Online Webinar – Offered by Dr. Jonathan Whitty
Duration 1 hour 1 PDU or 1 CDU 1 Category C PDU – Free PDU

This is a live recording of a talk given by Dr Jonathan Whitty (@jon_whitty LinkedIn profile) for the AIPM (Australian Institute of Project Management) Queensland Chapter Meeting at The Brisbane Club on the 4th May 2011. The session was posted to YouTube and is now available for viewing.

Jon Whitty examines some of the day-to-day habits of the modern project manager and of their group behavior, and how these lead to their survival and advancement in the complex corporate world rather than making a direct positive impact on the project.

Jon makes the case for a new way of thinking about project managers and their projects which embraces their human fallibility and the often unpredictable nature of their project work.

Online Webinar – Recorded July 17th
Presented by: Kaseya
Webinar Duration: 1 Hour Credits: 1 Category C PDU Free

Consistency is the hallmark of an effective, agile organization. With thousands of moving parts, ensuring that every user and every system is being managed consistently is critical.

The laptop logging in from across town should be managed as robustly, as completely and as securely as desktops in the office next door. However, with thousands of systems logging onto and off various networks in multiple networks, it isn’t feasible for the IT department to manually touch every machine, ensuring it is in compliance with all IT policies.

While some of these policies deal with capacity and performance, others manage access, authentications and security.

As the amount of managed systems grows so does the need to properly monitor compliance and mitigate risks through comprehensive policy management and enforcement. And, as the complexity of issues associated with doing so efficiently, effectively and in real-time increase, the priority for having the best tools working for your organization to keep your people, assets and process safe will be paramount.

As an IT asset manager you need to know such things as:

  1. What policies get applied to which systems?
  2. What if a user inadvertently makes a change to the system?
  3. What about new systems?

View the presentation to learn how to:

  • Ensure distributed systems are in compliance with IT policies or recurring services
  • Streamline the process of applying and updating policies to multiple machines
  • Achieve greater confidence that distributed systems are secure and in compliance
  • Manage network policy enforcement of machines groups depending on security risk, business use or service level
  • Allow new machines to automatically inherit policy settings without any intervention

NOTE: You may wish to Test Your System to ensure that you can view this webinar.
