How Red Hat Satisfied Lockheed Martin's Need for Speed on the F-22Author: Red Hat
Lockheed Martin's F-22 Raptor is one of the most advanced fighter jets on the planet not to mention one of the fastest. But over the past few years, as other nations began to test-fly and deploy their own fifth-generation fighters, Lockheed Martin realized that its software development practices were holding it back, delivering new capabilities to the Raptor too slowly to maintain its dominance. With Red Hat's agile development practices and automated software production pipeline, Lockheed Martin was able to build and deploy new capabilities for the plane at supersonic ...

SIGNAL Executive Video: Seizing the Reins of Long-Term Data RetentionAuthor: Thundercat & Veritas
From individuals to huge social media firms, everyone is awash in data. Warehousing it is not a problem-we have the cloud for that. For many organizations, the challenge is to be able to access the information they immediately need from the mountains of data that threaten to overwhelm their operations.
And that touches upon another challenge: how much data must be kept to meet government record-keeping regulations? Tossing data helps remove information that no longer is necessary for daily operations, but that data might be needed for legal reasons. So, widesprea ...

The Case for Secure CommunicationsAuthor: Blackberry
Today's communications landscape has migrated to mostly wireless communications. This doesn't mean that communications are more secure. In fact, it means that the attack surface has become much larger. Wireless traffic has the potential to be captured, listened to and even hijacked without any indication to those on either end of a call. The good news is that these communications can be protected with solutions that encrypt and secure voice and messaging communications so that even if its captured, it will reveal no usable information.
