SUMMARY:Demonstration of Performance Analysis and Capacity Planning Made Easier with the VPAT
DESCRIPTION:This event has passed\, but you can view it here. \nPlease reach out to Leonard Santalucia if you’d like to learn more: leonard.santalucia@convergetp.com \n\n  \nThis lunch ‘n learn Webex will be a 40 minute demonstration using VPAT to analyze performance constraints and then assess Capacity Planning requirements to resolve performance and meet growing business needs. We will use some sample data from case-studies that have been performed to show how the tool helped and simplified analysis and conclusions.    \nVPAT is free to download and is a lightweight tool that uses RMF delay metrics and other system data to provide visualization and analysis of performance.      \nIt has an AI-like analysis component that can help solve problems that are sometimes hard to diagnose.     \nThe capacity planning portion of the demonstration will include use of zPCR based data and will show how a capacity solution was arrived at.   We’ll close with time for some Q/A. \nSpeaker Bio: \nSeth Miller’s career spans more than 40 years in mainframe systems.  Starting out as a mainframe computer operator\, his career included applications programming on early versions of CICS\, DB2 and IMS databases.   Seth then moved into systems programming where he specialized in CICS at Credit Suisse/First Boston.    Seth then moved to AIG where he moved into management of many technical areas including CICS/MQ\, DASD/Tape/Storage and then into Performance Analysis and Capacity Planning where he spent the last 20 of his 29 years at AIG.    During that time Seth managed and oversaw the exponential growth of mainframes at AIG including one of the largest mainframe installations of SAP and a multi-year venture into insourcing other mainframe shops.  Seth developed many methodologies that enhanced capacity management and delivery at AIG. \n

SUMMARY:Cisco Winter Beer Tasting
DESCRIPTION:This event has ended\, but please reach out to Amy Barnes if you’d like to learn more: amy.barnes@convergeptp.com \n  \n\n  \nJoin Converge and Cisco for an in-depth discussion on zero trust and how you can secure your entire organization\, elevate business performance\, and accelerate your threat response\, all while improving the user experience. Our speaker is a 20+ year IT industry veteran and former COO. He will delve into Cisco’s zero-trust offering and provide insight into the latest security threats. \nAfter the security discussion\, we’ll enjoy a winter-themed beer tasting led by a professional cicerone\, or certified beer judge. We’ll learn the history and complexities of beer\, along with a better idea of how to enjoy it. A limited number of beer-tasting kits containing four winter-style craft beers will be distributed on a first-come\, first-served basis\, so register today! \nToday’s work-from-anywhere culture demands a new approach to security. It can be particularly challenging for organizations that need to protect sensitive data and remote devices\, so adopting cybersecurity practices that effectively protect the perimeter of a hybrid workforce is key. \nA zero-trust strategy deploys a “never assume trust\, always verify\, and apply least-privileged access” policy for every connection request to every corporate resource. Always verifying trust before granting access across your applications\, devices\, and networks ensures that only those who should have access to the information do. But\, what about the user experience? \nThe simple truth is that business moves too fast for security to get in the way. When implemented correctly\, a zero-trust security framework frustrates the attacker\, not the user. And\, it accommodates the integrated ecosystem of suppliers\, partners\, and customers that businesses must protect to continue efficient operations.

SUMMARY:Cisco MFA Security Webinar
DESCRIPTION:This event has passed\, but you can view it here \n\n  \nThe average cost of a data breach in the US in 2022 was over $9M\, with the healthcare industry hit the hardest.

To help protect your customers’ data and your company’s network from hackers\, we’ll look at adaptive MFA with Cisco Duo\, a key part of Cisco’s Zero Trust platform. With Cisco Duo\, you can proactively reduce the risk of a data breach by verifying users’ identities\, gaining visibility into every device\, and enforcing adaptive policies to secure access to every application. \nAll attendees will receive a lunch credit and be entered into a raffle to win one of the following must-have tech gifts.
