HOW TO AVOID BEING A 'BUFFER' FROM THE BRASS

Careers: One reader writes in to ask Bob Lewis an ostensibly simple
question about tips he might have to help managers avoid becoming a
barrier to communication instead of a promoter of it. "The way to avoid
this problem is for upper management to stop causing trouble. It's easy
to say but hard to achieve," Lewis asserts in this Advice Line post. A

PRIVATE EQUITY AND NOVELL: PERFECT TOGETHER?

Best of the blogs: Here's a suggestion that might surprise some, though
not all, of you readers. Private equity should buy out Novell. "What
Novell needs is to be taken off the public market so that it can regroup
and make difficult decisions that Wall Street doesn't have the patience
to permit," Matt Asay asserts. "I think that it will be too hard to
effectuate the necessary changes without getting off the quarterly Wall
Street treadmill." Hardware: While it's not quad-core, a magic key does
exist to a quantum jump in virtual server density, according to Tom
Yager. Getting much,... ...

How much stuff can you put in a router?

Product Test and Buyer's Guide This newsletter is sponsored by Nokia Make the most of your mobile gear Download our Free Executive Guide and learn how Network IT professionals are getting the most out of their mobile devices and improving mobile security. You'll also get the scoop on upcoming mobile tools and technologies and how they may impact your enterprise. Product Test and Buyer's Guide, 05/31/07 By Christine Burns Last week Adtran announced it is adding Layer 3 switching, Wi-Fi support and faster processing to its line of multi-service access routers. Adtran’s new NetVanta 1335 models – which the company says will eventually phase out its NetVanta 1224 models – will range in price from $1600 (the current base price of the NetVanta 1224) to $2800 depending on the number of wireless features and Power Over Ethernet features they support. The new boxes can be outfitted with dual Wi-Fi radios for both 802.11a and 802.11b/g wireless connectivity and can be configured to act as eight virtual access points.

Making a profound business case for new technologies

Unified Communications This newsletter is sponsored by Microsoft E-Mail Security: All facts, no PR Download this exclusive Gartner Magic Quadrant report now and get an in-depth look at 18 enterprise e-mail security vendors and their offerings. Discover whose products are going to get more popular and whose popularity will decline, which companies are leading the pack and which are ripe for acquisition. Network World's Unified Communications Newsletter, 05/31/07 Making a profound business case for new technologies By Michael Osterman Last October, I was involved in a client’s advisory board meeting in New York and sat next to a senior manager from a large, U.S.-based company. That company’s senior management, concerned about the potential breach of sensitive data resulting from the loss of company laptop computers, issued an edict that all laptops had to be secured within a period of two months. Any laptop that was lost after that time and that was not equipped with appropriate encryption software would result in the immediate firing of the employee who lost it. That’s a good example of a profound business case for technology: implement it or risk getting fired. However, there are a variety of messaging technologies for which such a profound business case is a tougher sell. For example, in talking with someone the other day from a leading provider of enterprise instant messaging (EIM) systems, that individual related that they are seeing a somewhat soft market for EIM and presence, softer than what many people might have anticipated a few years ago. VoIP: Lessons from Early Adopters Experts say VoIP isn't a magic wand that will solve all of an organization's communications challenges right out of the box. Learn why VoIP may not produce expected savings and productivity gains, and other lessons from early adopters. Click Here to Watch Part of the issue is that many IT departments and business units have not yet found a really compelling reason to implement EIM and presence technologies, perhaps because they just don’t see enough business benefit from them relative to the other technologies they are faced with implementing. For example, a messaging decision-maker is faced with perhaps 15 different initiatives, technologies, etc. and must prioritize among them. If decision-makers in an organization have to solve problems around image-spam, phishing, spyware, archiving, policy creation and enforcement, outbound content filtering, e-discovery, etc., they will be less likely to consider the benefits of EIM and presence simply because these technologies are too far down the list to be addressed in the near term. The key for vendors, then, is to move EIM and presence up the list through the marketing of a clear business case for these technologies. We are currently conducting a survey of prospective EIM and presence customers in North America and will have some results to share on this topic in the next couple of weeks.   What do you think?

Freedom of speech and its consequences

Security Strategies This newsletter is sponsored by Symantec Security Information Management Solutions: Beyond Threat Management Learn the latest Security Information Management best practices from IT research firm Forrester Research and Symantec. Watch now and also discover how solutions are evolving, as well as how to get more out of SIM - much more than incident response and threat management. Network World's Security Strategies Newsletter, 05/31/07 Freedom of speech and its consequences By M. E. Kabay In my last column, I introduced the case of AutoAdmit, where the owners allowed graphic racist and sexist lies to be posted at will on a site claiming to be devoted to the interests of law students. I began that article by explaining that some of my undergraduate students have trouble understanding that what they post in cyberspace may have unintended consequences later in their lives. In March, Ellen Nakashima of the Washington Post published a blistering analysis of the personal consequences to specific individuals of the libel published on AutoAdmit. Brilliant, talented women law students were denied jobs at top law firms; suspicions fell on vile postings on that board which feature derisive statements about women and other minority groups, "disparage individuals by name or other personally identifying information… [and] included false claims about sexual activity and diseases." The author pointed out that such postings eventually get indexed by search engines such as Google and are available to potential employers during their due diligence background checks. Unfortunately, some of these firms decline to risk embarrassment and therefore decline to hire the defamed law students. Don't Overlook Inside Security Threats Research says it's not just vendor hype: Most companies have significant vulnerabilities they're not aware of and vastly underestimate the risk of insider attacks. Watch this Webcast and learn which attacks you need to be worried about, which are the most underestimated threats and much more. Click here to view the webcast. One of the principals in the AutoAdmit case published a fascinating rebuke to an organization called Reputation Defender in which he refused to help remove defamatory materials about named individuals because he objected to the way in which he was approached. Readers can gain a clear understanding of that person’s values and concern for the victims of his board’s policies by reading his self-defense. In May, Wall Street Journal Law Blog writer Amir Efrati reported that the other AutoAdmit principal had been refused continued employment at a prestigious law firm. The attorney who refused further employment wrote, “We expect any lawyer affiliated with our firm, when presented with the kind of language exhibited on the message board, to reject it and to disavow any affiliation with it. You, instead, facilitated the expression and publication of such language… [and your resignation from the site was] too late to ameliorate our concerns.” I think that the people who ran this board had no sense of responsibility for the damage they were potentially causing to real human beings when they allowed lies and threats to remain on their discussion board. It’s easy to focus on abstractions and misinterpretations of the First Amendment and to lose sight of simple human empathy and bonds of social relations when everything is carried out impersonally in cyberspace. For more on that topic, see my paper “Totem and Taboo in Cyberspace: Integrating Technology into our Moral Universe” in HTML or PDF. So, students, learn the lesson well: Speech may be free, but disregard for the consequences of our actions does not always go unpunished.   What do you think? Post a comment on this newsletter
